Birthday Bear Paper Piecing Card

Hello everyone!
I wanted to share a new card with you today.
My mom's birthday is on New Years Day so created this card for her. :)

I was inspired by the new New Years Bear patterns from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs.

Hope you enjoyed my little card! :)

Little Girl Paper Piecing Card

I hope everyone had a great Christmas!
It was busy here, but was wonderful to spend time with family. :)

I have another card to share! I've been wanting to make more cards after the first of the year, but couldn't wait! Here is one I finished on Christmas Eve. I just love her! :)


I used different girl patterns from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs ~ mixing clothes & hair styles until I got the look I wanted. I raised her off the card with SU dimensionals as well.

Have an awesome day!!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve will find me on the first of many family gatherings. :) Even though it's hectic to try & fit all the different places to go with everyone's 'crazy' schedules, I really am thankful to have my family all close by to spend Christmas with.

I've been fussing over a card for too many days now & hopefully will finish & post it soon. :)

Wishing all of you a very Blessed Christmas!

Leann :)

Have an awesome day!

Christmas Card

Quickie post today! :)

Here is one of the Christmas cards I made over this last weekend. I needed some to hand out at church & some for teachers at school. I kept them simple & I really like the country/old fashioned Christmas feel they have! I so enjoyed doing the stitching/doodling by hand around the pattern paper ~ I think it really set off the look I was going for. :)


Thanks for looking!

Now for my project

It seems I ALWAYS end up needing some small gifts right at the last minute. Either there is no time to go to the store or the Christmas budget is long gone. :)

You probably already have everything you need to make your paper piecing into an ornament! Handmade ornaments are a special one of a kind gift & also great to attach to your packages & gift bags too!

I created my paper piecing as usual, I used a punch for something to make the longer hanger for the back & punched the small hole at the top of it. Run cord (like I did), ribbon, yarn ~ whatever you have to hang it with. :)

My blog candy today is this ornament I made for the hop! :)

I will also be adding an extra little surprise in your package as well. :)

To win my blog candy you need to:

1 - leave a comment here on my blog

2 - follow & leave a comment on my Facebook Fan page

That's it!

I will announce the drawing for my blog candy on my

Facebook Fan Page Monday morning. :)

Don’t forget about the Grand Prize Drawing at the end as well!


To be eligible to win these wonderful prizes you MUST
1) go through the entire blog hop and leave a comment on EVERYONE'S post.
2) become a FOLLOWER of everyone's blog.
3) stop by the LSHD Facebook fanpage and Scrapping Bugs Designs Facebook fan page and become a fan (if you are not a fan already)
4) leave a comment on the LSDH Facebook fanpage & the SBD Facebook fanpage letting us know you were there.


I hope you enjoy your hop with us today!
Hugs ~ Leann :)
