4th of july decor | echo park paper

Do you like to decorate for holidays?  I sure do!  I loved using the "Celebrate America" collection to add some fun patriotic decor around my home this month.  Here's a look at one of my shelves, all decked out for the 4th (and honestly, the entire month of July)!  The banner was featured on one of Echo Park's "project in a minute videos." Did you catch it?  If not, click over to their instagram page HERE to see it come together!  
I used the same collection to create my framed "4," for the 4th of July! I simply cut an oversized number 4 with my Silhouette an backed it with blue cardstock.



Then I mounted it on patterned paper with foam adhesive dots, and added a 3x4 card and some
stickers for embellishment.  I popped it into a cute wood frame, and that was it!



Super quick and super easy, but a great addition to my decorations this month!



Happy 4th!!

framed pumpkin decor | pebbles inc.

Hello Friends! Today I'd like to share a really quick and easy framed pumpkin project.  Recently I attended a local craft fair and noticed all of the cute and trendy wood decor items.  I don't have a lot of fancy wood-cutting equipment ...but I do have a plethora of random frames and a passion for paper - so here's what I came up with for my quick little autumn gifts:  

Are you curious about my technique?  Visit the Pebbles blog HERE to see how I made this cute pumpkin without wood!  And here's the Halloween version too:

Thanks for stopping by - happy crafting!

I always feel extra creative in the fall.  Maybe it's the thought of being all warm and cozy inside the house while the temperatures outside are falling.  Maybe it's all the inspiration around me - both in nature...and in the fun boutiques that are popping up everywhere.  Or perhaps it's the amazing new fall paper collections I get to work with!  This "Fall is in the Air" collection by Echo Park is one of my favorites, for sure!  Here's a look at the gift trio I created for their blog:
