Fall Paper Crafting Inspiration

I know the sunflowers in the garden are now gone, all their remains raked up and stuffed in black bags. Winter is at the door but.... it's still November. Thanksgiving is not yet here. Some days I still sit on the porch without a coat and soak in the warm sun. So in my world  I will still celebrate Fall. Just because I can.  

 

Until I see those actual cold white flakes of snow covering where the sunflowers grew or until I've enjoyed a Thanksgiving feast with family, you will still find signs of Fall at MyScrapChick.

 

 Banana Bread Gift Box...

Julie planned to make some small banana bread loafs to give as gifts.  She used the sunflower included with the file and added a cute gift tag to the box handle and tied it with twine and attached it to the box handle with a small metal clip.

 Fall Bracket Book...

Nancy cut the base pages from kraft cardstock. Then she down-sized the page just a bit, and added a layer of cardstock to each side in Fall colors. See the rest of the details on her blog of how she put this altogether.

I love fall. Sometimes I feel like one of those trees that just has to hang onto a few of those last orange and red leaves. I'm just not ready to leave this season of colors. Or the warmth of the sun.

 

Happy Fall, Ya'll!

Fall 3D Paper Acorns and Pinecone Boxes

Create Words to celebrate all the good things in life, like FALL.

 

 Christi's display of FALL letters expresses a love for the beautiful colors of autumn.

And I'm in love with all her colors in these pop up letters and the added leaves to the front of them.

She didn't stop there, she created these Pinecone and Acorn Gift Boxes for fall too. See a lot more details and photos on her blog.

The Pinecone doubles as a small treat box. It also the perfect size of little gift box and holder for a DIY scented Christmas sachet.

 

 

 

Christi's Acorn Box is ready to be filled with treats of nuts or candies. But even after all the goodies are gone this will look nice displayed on a shelf or fireplace mantel to celebrate fall.

Sunflowers ~ with Cyndy G

 

Cyndy used the 3D Sunflower Rosettes and leaves which can be found in the Sunflowers and Bumble Bees Bundle to make this project. She found the little tin milk can at Hobby Lobby and knew it would be perfect holding a sunflower.

  Shirley used the big 3D Sunflower Rosettes to freshen and brighten up a fall arrangement she already had on hand. The big yellow blooms fit right in and became the star of the show in her bouquet.

 "I don't know if you have ever used any of the rosettes from My Scrap Chick but they are Amazing!  Usually when I am making a rosette I am struggling to hold it together which I try to hot glue it and always burn my fingers.  The rosettes that My Scrap Chick makes have little thread holes at the bottom." ~ Cyndy

Sunflower Rosettes and the Pretty Party Rosettes.

Paper Crafting Home Decor That Looks Like Wood but it's Knot.

They look like the prim wood decor but they're not. They're all made from cardstock papers. So of course we had to call them "Wood Knots." 

 

 

Debb has made the full set of rustic Pumpkin Wood Knots and plans to display them on her table top thru thanksgiving. I love how they look with her "faith" sign and viney twigs.

Keeping all the parts in the same color range really adds to the look of carved wood on her pieces. Plus I love the effect of the twine on the pumpkin stem. She used papers with a wood grain print and inked along the edges. Then used a sheet of the same paper to print the quotes onto before glueing them to the front of each.

SVG files and FABRIC to create Chair Huggers and Kitchen Decor

Alma got an early sweet treat before Halloween. It was the new Cricut Maker. Who knew what fun home decor items you could make with cutting files and fabric.

Alma happily reported that despite her doubts as to how well the Cricut Maker would do with fabric, she was amazed to see how accurate and well it was able to cut all her material.

I love to sew, it's what I do to totally unwind and go to my "happy place." Have you tried using our cutting files to make fabric projects yet? This idea is definitely on my to-do list.

Sunflowers, Bumble Bees and Fall Florals

 

Every summer my neighbors grow these wild and beautiful sunflowers along our shared fence. I get to enjoy all these big colorful blooms all summer long without lifting a finger nor a shovel. But even so, they did inspire me to work on new Sunflower designs for paper crafting.

 

 

 

 As I was working on the designs for the new cutting files I would step out into the back yard every now and then just to view the sunflowers. Then one afternoon I suddenly realized they were swarming with little honey bees.  Lots and lots of them. Well of course! If you have sunflowers, you will also have bees. (Hopefully!) So of course, I had to add some little Bumble Bees to my sunflowers too. 

 Sunflowers and Bumble Bees Bundle...

The new fall set includes a 3D Sunflower made using rosettes and pop dotted layers for the seed pod. You can see the rosette construction in the Sunflower Tutorial. This finished sunflower measures just over 5" wide. 

 

The bloom for the Giant Sunflower in the upper right is a different set of files (so it can be super sized) but uses the same rosette idea and construction steps. It's about 10" across. Perfect for hanging in your front door.

 

This bundle also includes the Sunflower A2 shape card and the 2 Bumble Bees.

 

 

Scrappy Sam Designs A2 Sunflower Shape Card

 

Shirley on our design team didn't waste a single moment and created the A2 shape card above and then the beautiful fall arrangement below using the 3D Sunflowers and tucking them in with her other fall florals.

  Shirley will be sharing the full photos on her blog so be sure to pay her a visit. You will love the full on view of this fall beauty.

Thank you, Shirley!
