Fall Time Sign

This is a sign I made. It can be hung on a door or on a wall. Currently, it's hanging above the couch in my living room. If I could do it over I would have made the two dark brown letters a different color so they could be read easier.

Fall Book Page Wreath

Yay for fall decorating! With cooler temperatures come changes in leaves, pumpkins for sale and fall decorating. I wanted to make a wreath for the front door and this is the result. This was my first time ever making a wreath and I can't wait to try again. Maybe I'll make another fall one or wait until Christmas. 

Here's the materials I used: 

* A cardboard circle for the base

*Dictionary pages

*Buttons

*Leaf skeletons

*Various leaves cut out of fall colors

I wrapped the cardboard base with the book pages and stapled the leaves on. I cut out flower shapes from the book pages and sewed them together with a button. I then positioned the flowers and glued them on top. 

Here's a Bible verse: 

"The Lord upholdeth all that fall, and raiseth up all those that be bowed down." Psalm 145:14

Thinking of You Card

All in a days work! I had a lot of free time today and so I spent a couple of hours making these cards. I got the ideas for these cards after looking at some pictures on Pinterest. However, I changed them up a bit and the result is uniquely my own. If you'd like to buy any of these cards please let me know either by message or email.

Book Page Card

Here's a new card. 

For this card I used the following materials:

*White card stock paper

*A page from a dictionary

*Colored pencils/black ink pen

*Brown thread

*Yellow tissue paper

*Cream colored card stock paper

*A clear button

I glued the tissue paper on first and then put the embroidered and colored dictionary page on top. Then I sewed the button to the small square of paper (for the sentiment) and then glued that paper on last. 

Enjoy making cards! 

Here's one of my favorite Bible verses just because I love the Bible too!! :)

And even to your old age I am He; and even to your gray hairs will I carry you: I have made and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you.   Isaiah 46:4

Pumpkin Card

Here's a new card I made. 

I made it using card stock paper, tissue paper, and a rubber stamp. 

Tree Card

I had a few friends that I wanted to make cards for today so I indulged my creative side and made these following cards!

I started with some plain white card stock paper for the card base. After that I cut out a tree shape from some brown card stock paper. (Tip: Go to the paint section at Wal-Mart and they have free colored paper cards you can take that are great for card making.)  

I used two of these colored papers from Wal-Mart and a hole punch to create small paper circles for the tree leaves. 

Here's the finished card. This is just a basic design and instead of leaves you could make flowers or whatever. Next time I think I will use colored paper for the background instead of plain white. 

Here's some of the cards I made. 

Church in the Woods

Here's a little sketch I did. I used a reference photo for the church and the trees were from my imagination. I drew this to practice perspective (It's still a little bit off, but that's a work in progress!) I drew this using a regular black ball-point pen. Hope you like it! :)
