Hi Friends, I wanted to share these super fun Pastelloween MemoryDex Cards with you today.  They measure 4 inches wide by 6 inches tall and look so fun put together in your MemoryDex Box. I used two different Lori Whitlock cut files for the base of the cards, as well as the coffin silhouette, skull and Happy Halloween Banner.  I took a 2x4 inch piece of paper, folded in half and punched with the Heidi Swap MemoryDex Punch.  Then, I glued everything together with lots of fun cutaparts from the Crate Paper Hey Pumpkin Collection and a few stickers from Michael's.  Aren't they just the cutest?! As always, thank you for stopping by.  Until next time! xo, Michelle

Aimee Ashley Cathy Michelle H. (You are here) I recently got back from vacation, and believe it or not, I'm already dreaming of my next one.  Anyone else do that as soon as they're back home?

Hi there friends! As some of you may know, Coco & Reno asked me to be a guest designer for them back in May, featuring their June 2019 Dies.  Those projects were posted on my instagram account at the end of May, but I thought you might like a closer look at my favorite summer project and what I used to complete it. As soon as I saw the ocean themed dies I knew I was going to use the super cute cut file, Sand Pail Shaped Box, by Lori Whitlock. The box measures 4.5x1.5x5 and is plenty big enough to hold fun party favors, treats or a small gift to a friend or penpal.
