This Quorory Panda’s Eyes Follow You . . .
That seems really creepy!
They are cute and adorable. They’re Panda’s for goodness sake!
I love paper crafts . . . but lately I’m finding things that creep me out. There was Ray Keim’s “Halloween” house and now these pandas . . .
But, I had to share them with you . . . It may just be me . . .
I think they’re creepier than that Elf on a Shelf . . .
Just click on the image and you’ll be taken to the PDF of the Blue Panda to download and make.
Of course, you want them all!
Have fun with them . . . creep out your friends!
Let me know how many of these you made . . . and what you did with them. If you gave them away, what was the initial reaction . . . and what did they think after they had it for awhile?
This is something that can cause nightmare or that uneasy feeling . . . like you’re being watched!
Please leave me a comment below!
Thanks for stopping by!

I love tags for mini albums and for gifts.
These are great for you to add your own images for various seasons and holidays.
I like the background. It works well for most generic purposes.
This vintage look seems to be quite popular. I like it and use the style for most of my tags for all seasons and for all reasons.
I like to use my Silhouette Cameo Design Studio software to change the size of the tags and to add images. Then I can duplicate them to fill the page. Then get them cut out quickly and easily to use on gifts and for inserts in mini-albums and scrapbooks.
These tags are also great to add your own messages to them — could be seasonal greetings and add the “To and From”. On the back I like to add a personal message of some kind.
Enjoy your new tags.
Thanks for stopping by!

I’m sure you remember Ray Keim from Haunted Dimensions.
He’s a master artist and creates impressive paper craft 3-D buildings you can print out and assemble.
His newest one gives me chills just thinking about it. That’s why I’m telling you about it . . . or I’ll do a warning . . . Halloween . . . Mike Myers . . . The Halloween Movies . . . Murders . . . Well, Ray has a new model entitled Haddonfield 78 . . . That the house . . . his house . . .
It doesn’t look all that creepy . . . but the movies . . . those images . . . the story . . . yes, it is definitely the story . . .
Just click the image and you’ll be taken to the PDF on Ray’s Haunted Dimensions website. It would be nice of you to give a generous donation to him in appreciation of all the great paper craft printables he has created for our crafting pleasure. And to give us chills and that spooky feeling of being watched . . .
It would be a nice addition to your collection of Haunted Dimensions paper crafts. As for me, I’ll pass on this one . . . it really gives me an uncomfortable feeling.
I hope you enjoy this paper craft or others on Ray’s website. I really like Phantom Manor with the double staircase to the front porch. It is an attractive manor that will take quite some time to build . . . but it is definitely worth it. And with school starting back sooner than we may like, there’s The Skoolhouse along with lots of other places you may enjoy exploring.
Have fun!

We’re getting closer to the 4th of July!
I’m going to put my flag out early this year so it can proudly wave in the summer breeze.
We’re in our hazy, crazy, lazy days of summer. It is warm — some days downright hot . . . but it is summer and we love the slower pace of things . . . except for the traffic. Everyone is out and about — some still working while others are deciding on the right spot to vacation. There are those who have gotten their backyards together for BBQs and summer entertaining.
You can make several of these pinwheels and place them throughout your yard. They’re an easy way to get red, white and blue colorfully displayed.
Just click the picture to the right and you’ll be taken to the PDF to print out.
These work well using a pin and pushing the pin into a pencil eraser. If you want a longer stick, it is suggested that you put a pencil eraser on the top of the stick and push the pin into it. Adding a little bead between the back of the paper and the eraser gives a bit of freedom to the paper pinwheel allowing it to spin easier.
These are colorful and look nice in the flower beds, too.
These are great to make and set out on all patriotic holidays. It’s a nice way of showing America’s colors.
The most important thing to me is sharing time with family and friends. We are truly blessed in so many ways . . . it’s a nice time to reflect upon our many blessings while watching the firework displays . . . or eating a nice cold slice of watermelon . . . after having a hot dog or hamburger . . . or BBQ ribs . . .
Don’t forget to make s’mores . . . or whatever your family tradition.
Be safe!
Sharon
