Falling into Autumn

Hello friends!

Well it's officially fall! The leaves start changing colour, the weather gets a little bit cooler and the days grow shorter. With all that inspiration it's easy to grab a hot cup of tea and just create a little something special. Or hot chocolate as Megan would say. Mmmm... now I could go for a mug of hot chocolate.

Megan and I wanted to share a bunch of cards with you that we've made lately. Up first we have a card I made for my cousin's little boy who was celebrating his third birthday earlier this month.

 
 
Malachi is a little cutie pie who loves trucks and machines. What a boy! I found this truck paper that had a coordinating gear patterned paper. I love the bright colours that make this a really fun card for an energetic 3 year old.
 
Next, Malachi's baby sister Preslee was also celebrating a birthday this month. Little Preslee turned ONE!! And everyone knows that turning ONE is a big deal and deserves a special card!
 
 
Her mom told me that they were having a ladybug themed party so in keeping with the theme I made a cute lady bug card. I had fun heat embossing the letters for her name and adding that little bit of sparkle to some of the polka dots.
 
So as you can see we've been up to some fun stuff! I wanted to share another card with you all. It's one of my personal favorites.
 
 

Megan made this card last weekend with some new My Mind's Eye paper that we've fallen in love with. The colours are gorgeous!! And I love the placement of the flowers! Notice all the rounded corners too.... Megan LOVES rounding her corners - no joke! She says it softens things up. It does have a lovely effect on this card I will admit!

Moving along, a friend of mine asked me to make a custom baby card for her. I had just gotten some new washi tape and needed to try them. So check it out and let me know whatcha think!


I loved making this card. It's got the bright, girly pink flower and stripes and the polka dot paper is just so cute!! I love polka dots!! And my friend took this beautiful picture of the card for me! Makes it even more special!

Well thanks for stopping by today! Megan and I are signing off to try out the Cricut machine for the first time!! Oh the possibilities!

Lindsay & Megan
