Hi, Renee here to share a holiday home décor idea with a Dear Santa Letter Board using the Home by DCWV Black & White Letter Board.  We start decorating our home for Christmas the day after Thanksgiving.  This letter board will make a wonderful addition!  And, I can change it up during the month of December with fun messages or favorite quotes.

This horizontal letter board measures 16″ x 20″.  A really nice size for a mantle, a tabletop, or you can hang it on the wall.

Hi, Renee here today to share a Thankful Heart layout using the Jen Hadfield Heart Of Home collection.  There is nothing like the month of November and the Thanksgiving holiday to remind us of how blessed we are to have our family.  I am so thankful, grateful, and blessed to have my family.  They forever have my heart.

Thankful Heart Layout by @reneezwirek using the #HeartOfHome collection by @pebblesinc and @Tatertots and Jello .com

To start my Thankful Heart layout, I trimmed the Heart of Home patter paper to 6 ½” x 12″ and adhered it along the bottom of the Antique Tile pattern paper.

Wooden alphabet stamps and black Zing! Glitter Embossing Powder together add a bit more to my title.

My 5″ x 7″ photo is adhered above my heat embossed words.  I used the “thankful heart” Family Phrases Thickers for the title of my page.

Love the cluster of embellishments here including Dimensional Stickers, die-cuts, and accent stickers.

Of course, I couldn’t resist adding a butterfly die-cut with the flowers.

I finished off my page with a few splatters of Golden Color Mist.  I also added photo corners using the Stitched Together pattern paper.

Hi, Renee here today to share a couple of thank you cards using the America the Beautiful collection in celebration of Veteran’s Day.  Veteran’s Day is an official United States holiday that honors military veterans.  You can create and send these thank you cards with messages of love and appreciation to family and friends who have served in the United States Armed Forces.

These cards measure 4″ x 6″.  I trimmed the Declaration and Patriotic Posies pattern papers to 3 ¾” x 5 ¾” and adhered them each to white card bases.

My card sentiment was centered along the bottom of the cards.

I centered flag and heart Die-Cuts at the top of each card.

For a final touch, I added flower and Star stickers around the die-cut embellishments.

Instead of using a plain woodgrain pattern paper for this card, I used one with the state names on it.  I really like the design.

All three cards are a standard A6 in size which measure 4 ½” x 6 ¼”.  I cut-up the Hocus Pocus pattern paper and added a few of my favorite pieces to the front of this card.

Halloween Layout with Midnight Haunting

Hi, Renee here today to share a Halloween layout using the Midnight Haunting collection.  I love Halloween!  I love looking back on all the fun costumes my girls have chosen over the years too.  This layout documents their Star Wars costumes from last year.  They were adorable as Rey and BB-8.  Payton’s inflatable BB-8 costume was a hit during trick-or-treating.

The EEEK! pattern paper was the perfect background for this Halloween layout.  I trimmed several additional pattern papers to the same size as my photo, 5 ¼” x 5 ¼, and adhered them along the left side of the page.

My photo was centered among the pattern papers and adhered with Foam Dots.

I sprinkled Golden Color Mist around my page and added a “Boo!” Sticker to my photo.

I love the gold foil on the Spooktacular Thickers for the title of my page!

There are touches of gold everywhere you look!  I added just a few embellishments to make it stand out more  I also added a pumpkin sticker, a butterfly and skull and crossbones die-cuts, fussy cut flowers, and gold Brads. Don’t you love the pops of orange?
