Thanks so much Stephanie for asking me to be a part of this hop with such amazing talent!!!
On to my project......
I have decided to do something I have NEVER done before....use my Cricut to make a home decor project....GASP....I cant believe I have never tried one before. I decided to go with a Fall Wall Hanging. I LOVE Fall....so I thought a Welcome Fall sign was perfect since I couldnt wait for it to get here!!!
And here it is.....
I cut a 6x12 piece of cardboard from a cereal box and covered it in patterned paper.
The TREE is cut from SIMPLY CHARMED at 7 1/2......I cut it first out of cardboard and then layered it with the paper so it was thicker.
The SCARECROW is also cut from SIMPLY CHARMED at 4....I also cut it out of cardboard first.
The font is from DON JUAN. WELCOME is cut at 1 1/2 and FALL is cut at 2 1/2. I also cut all the letters out of cardboard and then paper.
The LEAVES are cut from DOODLECHARMS at 1 and at 1/2 of an inch.
I used my Cropadile and punched 2 holes at the top and used some brown ribbon to hang the sign.
The patterned paper is from Making Memories and is from last year.
It really was a simple project and I hope you like it and are inspired to make your own custom home decor for Fall!!!
Here is the list of all the AWESOME talent in todays hop!!!
I am last so I think you are done =)
Thanks so much for hopping along with us. Dont forget to leave ONE comment on each blog to be entered in the GRAND prize drawing. And feel free to look around my blog =)
Have a blessed day and HAPPY FALL!!!
