My Simple Thanksgiving Decor

Thanksgiving is over, but I wanted to share my super simple decor. Living in Los Angeles, means I have access to the famous Flower Mart--where one can get amazing flowers for such a great price! This year I didn't want to go too traditional with the fall colors and I simply went with what attracted me at the flower market. I had some of these wooden baskets left over from my little sisters baby shower so I decided to fill them with these amazing flowers. I am by no means a florist so I simply used things I had laying around in my craft room to create this arrangement. I found, a few bowls, plastic bags, and a sponge, hehe! In our family we love to throw parties and have family over for dinner so we always have linens, plates, and mason jars in the garage. These beautiful scalloped white plates were purchased from the 99 cent store. You would think it just by looking at them, but they are so nice--what a great dollar store find. I hope you enjoyed this simple post and I hope you had a great thanksgiving with your family.

Lawn Fawn, Chibitronics Week

Thank you so much for stopping by! This week the design team is teaming up with Chibitronics to create some awesome cards. These kits are available on the Lawn Fawn blog, here. I had such  good time creating with this kit, it comes with instructions on how to create your very own card using the Chibitronics kit, and it was very easy to follow--in my opinion. I have never used anything like this before and it the instructions where very easy to follow.

If you know me personally you know that I love to be outdoors and I love mountains and hiking. So for this card I used the (relativly) new die set, Stitched Mountain Borders, and to Lawn Fawn card stock: Storm Cloud, Manatee, and Noble Fir to create the mountains the meadow. For the bear images I used the stamp set, Dad + Me, and rather than using the coordinating dies I simply fussy cut the images out. For the trees in the background I used the stamp set, Toboggan together, with the LF ink, Storm cloud. For the fire image I used the stamp set, Love you 'Smore.

To create the constellations background I used a variety of Tim Holtz distress inks, and a white gelly pen; and, when you press on the firefly the Chibitronic lights can be turned on and off.

I hope you enjoyed this card and post, if you would like to view more cards by the DT feel free to head on over to the Lawn Fawn blog by clicking, here. If you have any questions about the products used feel free to leave me a comment and I will reply as soon as possible.

Thank you & Happy Crafting!
