Fabulous Fall Challenge

Hi KaDoodlebugs!Today is the start of a new Facebook challenge called "Fabulous Fall."  You can create  anything you like as long as it is fall themed, so grab your favorite fall files and get creative!

For my "Fabulous Fall" project I made a 12 inch fall wreath using these adorable files.

                                                     

I used an 11 1/2 inch tag board ring as the base of my wreath. I cut about thirty 3 to 4 inch leaves enlarged from the files used. This was a good way to use up all my fall colored scraps of paper. The squirrels are about 5 inches tall and each acorn is about 1 1/2 inches. I made the 7 by 3 inch title in design space. I used three, 1 inch pieces of 1/4 inch wide ribbon to make a hangar. This was a fun, easy project.

Thanks for stopping by. I can't wait to see all the great fall projects you all make!

Little Mittens Christmas Tear Bear Wreath

 

Hello everyone! It's my day on the Kadoodle Bug Designs blog.

 

I am sharing this Little mitten Christmas Wreath.

 

I purchased this wreath from Joane Fabrics at 50% off during black Friday. I knew that I wanted to use it as a gift for my Mother in law. I also knew that I wanted my children to do something for it as well.

 

I chose a cute bear from Kadoodle Bug Designs. I chose to make this cute bear black. I made him real big to look right on this 22 inch Christmas wreath.

 

 

I made my design in Cricut Design Space and cut my tear bear pattern with my Cricut Explore. I tore my bear out of mulberry paper to give him a furry appearance.

 

 

To involve my children. I stamped their hands in black tuxedo Momemto ink onto white cardstock. I thin cut out their prints and wrote their name in white Signo ball gel pen onto each hand.

 

I used the cricut cartridge "Holiday Cakes" image Mittens to cut out my mittens. I then used twine to attach each mitten to a hand. Like when you flip over a mitten you see a tiny hand. I attached Stampendous shaved ice to each mitten cuff with Fabri tac.

 

 

Its hard to believe its Christmas Eve Eve! Thanks for stopping by and Merry Christmas!
