Your project turned out ADORABLE! I love how simple it looks to make, but yet it has so much impact! I totally want to scraplift this! 🙂

I LOVE this idea! It may be simple but it looks like something you’d hope to find in a specialty boutique. I’m soooo on my way to Hobby Lobby for a frame! Thank you for the awesome files you make and gorgeous paper line. You make creating fun, simple and stylish.

Love your little haunted house!
I’m so looking forward to making lots of holiday decorations now that I have my new Silhouette!! Thanks!
Love the frame! Curious to know if you bought it like that or is it a wood frame that you painted/sanded etc? Excited to check out the other blogs.
I like the idea of making a fall wreath with paper leaves and for Thanksgiving you could add the banner that you are giving out today.
What an adorable haunted house picture frame! So cute!

Lori, I just love your style. So many cute projects…so little time!
love all the projects
I think I might have to copy your frame idea! Awesome!
Love all of the projects!
Very cute project and idea. My idea would be for Halloween. The kids and I gathered some rocks from the creek. We painted them black and decorated them however we wanted. Put legs on them using a hot glue gun and pipe cleaners and there you have a black spider decoration for Halloween.
For November, every day write one thing you are thankful for–no repeats. Make a book or collage with all those things.
Great Halloween decor!! Thanks for the freebie! Loving this blog hop!
I like making chocolate covered pretzels as snacks for the holidays. 🙂 (if you get a decorator bag and cut the tip off you can easily add stripes to your pretzel in the primary color of the Holiday. :))
Awesome projects by the team! Thanks for the chance to win.
Loving this blog hop! Thanks for the freebie!
I like making chocolate covered pretzels drizzled with colored stripes…(Orange for Halloween and Thanksgiving, Red and Green for Christmas)
I made some glitter pumpkins a couple of Halloweens ago. I love them!

My 7-year-old daughter and I just made your owl bag yesterday. It turned out so cute!
Love that haunted house silhouette!
What a great decoration!!!
Love this blog hop…so many cute ideas! My fall idea (just used it for a fall baby shower) is to make cute owl decorations out of toilet paper rolls (swished down on top–for ears & body), cupcake liners (for feathers) & cardstock circles (for eyes) See last month’s Family Fun magazine for better details. So cute!
such a fun and easy project to add just the right touch to any home!!! tfs!!!
oops…forgot about our fun project that we do each year! the kiddos do their footprints in white paint to create ghosts…super spooky and cute!!!
I LOVE this file!!! Such a simple and easy project but looks adorable! 🙂

Make mini loaves of quick bread for neighbors, and decorate the boxes with cute fall images.
LOVE your designs, just wish I could use them with my Cricut, 🙁
Love your designs and your blog!
Adore this frame! Love it!
Super Awesome blog hop and sale. Off to hopping I go!!
I love your designs. I’d like to make some halloween lanterns with the halloween haunted house
This is such a darling home decor item. Elegant!! (Think I have to make one, for sure!)
Making our own wreaths, table decor and napkin rings for the fall Holidays.
I haven’t made any crafty things yet for the season, but I was looking at a pumpkin display that I would like to try!
Each year make a mini album of things each family member is thankful for and put them out as decorations each year.
Love, Love, Love your wall hanging and your choice of ribbon sure makes it PoP! Thank you for the hop, it was fun seeing all the Amazing projects!

Great blog hop! All of the dt projects were gorgeous! Thanks for the cute banner!
LOVE your designs!!!
Awesome%20blog%20hop!%20Thanks!
You and your team have such creativity. Thanks for sharing.
My son likes to make tiny boxes for placecard holders for the Thanksgiving table. A couple of fall foil wrapped kisses inside add a nice surprise!
Thanks for all the inspiration!!
I saw a cool idea for a Thanksgiving centerpiece on a blog last year – cut out leaves in different colors, have everyone write something they’re thankful for on a leaf, and tie or clip onto a tree branch and place in a vase.
Every Fall, I stack a set of 3 real pumpkins (largest pumpkin on bottom, to smallest on top) on to a concrete urn on my front porch to make two beautiful topiaries. I wrap grapevine loosely around the pumpkins and add some artificial fall leaf garland. It it simple and beautiful. You just have to spend a little time to make sure your pumpkins are level. Beautiful and simple!
I recently cut out “trick or treat” in red vinyl for the black front door ! so sweet ! Hang a spider wreath above it and I have an easy front porch display. I can’t wait to cut out more saying for the door for fall and Christmas !
we are painting our pumpkins this year-that way they will last longer (and the squirrels can’t eat them as easy!)
Your designs are my favorite! Just did my first ‘print & cut’ of your designs on my Silhouette this week … it was pretty simple. Thanks Lori for all your inspirations. Awesome!

I really love decorating a great, fun kid’s table! We have 3 toddlers that are within 8 weeks of each other and I’ve found some great ideas at Fiskars for this year’s meal.

I love doing a fun kid’s table! We’ve got 3 2 year olds this year (all within 8 weeks of each other!) and I’ve been collecting some great ideas. The Fiskars site has some really amazing kids activities!
Cool project. Thanks for the chance to win
Thanks!! I was just hoping along and love all your creations!! You make it look so easy!
I love your creations! I’m always anxious to see what you’ve done next!
You can’t beat heading to the Pumpkin Patch as a family as a fall tradition. Hayrides, pumpkins, and fun…and hopefully a yummy fall treat or two. (Like apple donuts and cider.)
Frankie is just the coolest! Love the trick or treat and fall signs but most of all love the excellent step by step illustrations that turn these awesome professional looking projects into something we can actually do too! Thanks so much for sharing your talent.
I enjoy printing our names in a large block font and using it as a pumpkin pattern, cutting each person’s name out on the front of a pumpkin! Happy Halloween!
What a fun Blog Hop!!! 🙂
Our Halloween tradition is to make something special for the other kids on our street! Last year we decorated crayon boxes and this year we are wrapping homemade candy apples with paper witch’s hats and candy apples.
Thank you so much for the freebies and the discount! I love all your items. They are always so much fun!
