"Our Secret Family Recipe" Trifold Card

Hello everyone and a happy Monday to you all. I hope you're all enjoying this amazing warm weather sweeping the nation. My kiddos and I are outside everyday playing and getting the yard ready. I feel like our summer vacation is just weeks away. I have to remind myself that it's only March!! Haha.

Living in Wisconsin we are always waiting for the "snow to drop" so to speak. Even though it's in the 80s, it could be snowing by tomorrow. So we are soaking up these warm weather days.

I was so inspired by this amazing paper pack from Best Creations. It has glitter pages on one side and plainer paper on the other side. So it crosses both the glitzy and the simple crafter. Love that!!

With this paper pack and some embellishments I created this "Our Secret Family Recipe" trifold card. Inside I created mini recipe cards to fill with some of my favorite recipes. What a great card idea that is like a mini gift.

Oh my word friends, Thanksgiving is THIS Thursday. I am so excited to fill my belly full of delicious foods. We have a tradition in my family where we have my husband's family Thanksgiving in the morning, so we have brunch. Yummy yummy fluffy pancakes, bacon, egg bake and the infamous corn fritters.

FCCB Challenge #82 : Purple People Eater

Happy Monday everyone. I am loving this fall weather we are having. Time for hot soup and warm apple cider. Yum yum yum!! And snuggling up in slippers with a good movie. Ohh. Note: I am excited about the cold weather now, but in two months I'll probably be over it!

Anyways, I made today's project for the FCCB Challenge #82 : Purple People Eater - create a project with the color purple and a monster or bug on it. Check out all the creations at Fantabulous Cricut.

I used the Mini Monsters Cricut cartridge. I am just loving this cart. Not only for all the Halloween projects we are working on now, but for anytime of the year.

I made this door hanger for my front door. Ya know, to scare the trick-or-treaters! I attached the monsters together using my Crop-a-dile and black ribbon.

I got all the paper and extra supplies to make this adorably scary door hanger at Shop Pumpkin Spice.

Supplies:
Mini Monsters - Cricut cartridge
Paper - Best Creation "Happy Haunting" 6x6 Glitter Pad
My Mind's Eye "Lush" rhinestones
My Mind's Eye "Blackbird" brads
black cardstock
black ribbon
Glossy Accents
Stickles

Be sure to check out the Pumpkin Spice Blog to see the daily design team posts. The creations are always amazing and beautiful.

Hope you all get inspired to make more fall projects. I know all I have to do is look outside for inspiration.
