Snowflake Spinner


I made another spinner similar to the one the other day but in neutral shades. I used nylon thread used for embroidery with my sewing machine which is very fine, perhaps too much so for a spinner as the thread stretched a lot while I was working with it.

Another Crawl-some Birthday


I made another card using the Lawn Fawn Sweet Spiders sets.  This time I created a bold blue background using Catherine Pooler inks. Oh, and the web is cut from plain white cardstock and not glitter cardstock.

Crawlsome Birthdays


I had not intended to get the Lawn Fawn Sweet Spiders sets but they were too cute to resist.  Yes, I found a spider cute.


I used the MFT Spider Web Cover-Up cut from glitter cardstock for the web and sponged on the cardstock to pull focus to the center of the web.


Now these are meant as October birthday cards so I added little birthday hats and the presents among the candy.  I told you--CUTE!

The latest Addicted to CAS #267 Just a Note challenge is way easy, I swear.
