Such a lovely and loving time of year. I'm sad to see October go, but happy for what November represents and encourages us to think about and celebrate.
I'm here with another Sizzix Fresh Vintage project, this time using the darling Scoreboard Caddy die.
I created a mini card set that nestles inside the caddy. Melissa Frances 5th Avenue paper and tags were used on these cards along with a resin applique and pom pom trim. I also used Simple Stories paper, vintage dictionary paper, trim, and buttons, tea stained twill, Prima trim, scrunched seam binding from Memriemare and My Craft Spot.
The caddy holds three small cards just perfectly and is sturdy enough to sit or hang. Such an easy die to assemble and so much fun to dress up to your personal taste.
I used a printable collage sheet from Made by Janet, and Papertrey Ink stamps including the Just for You and Tag-its #3 sets.
The chipboard tags are from Maya Road and have been painted, distressed, and glittered.
There are two giveaways going on today in conjunction with today's Sizzix die. The first is at Oh My Crafts where they are giving away a Flower Layer #9 die, and the second at Julie McGuffee's blog where she is giving away a collection of crafty items.
Thanks so much for visiting. There are many other designers using this same die today, so just click on the Hop Forward or Hop Backward links above on my left sidebar and continue on your way.
The clouds are starting to pile up this afternoon, the wind gusting, and I LOVE it! Tonight we'll have a fire and something warm to eat for dinner.

A piece of heaven; I;m smitten..

Beautiful set! Love your bows! I'm loving this time of year. We actually had a bit of snow/freezing rain over the weekend; and while most thought it was miserable, I loved it! It always inspires feelings of cozy, comforting things for me.

I'm so glad you're on Pinterest now. I searched for you about a week ago because I thought how beautiful your boards would be. I love everything you post and your shabby, vintage style. I'm now following you...not in a stalker kind of way, though. :)
