Fall Card

I made this card for my Boss's birthday.  My Epic 6 is being repaired so I have to use "smaller scale" dies at this time.  It's amazing how you adapt when an item you use everyday is gone!  And I'm loving the look of using burlap ~ so much fun!!
(dies used: Nesting Frames and 2x2 leaf ~ flower is a different brand of die)

Birthday Bottle Tag

A little off the Halloween ideas for a Birthday one!  I made up this Birthday Tag to go over a bottle of wine for a friend.  The label of wine is cute (Girly Girl) but I must add my personal touch!

Candle

Decorating a candle and base is a quick & easy gift idea, plus you can use leftover products from other projects. Also, washi tape worked great to add to the glass base!
