Founder’s Note
Happy Fall from Fancy Pants Designs! I love this time of year. The weather is perfect, the air
is clean and the leaves are showing signs of the changing colors! It is definitely a colorful and
beautiful season! Which is why we’ve chosen our NEW Hopscotch Collection to highlight this
month! This line ties together the beautiful colors of fall and gives you that happy feeling just
by looking at it! With a few pops of bright colors, this line is perfect for fall photos, visits to the
fair and nature walks to name a few! I hope you’ll enjoy the fun designs in this newsletter—as
always, our team has really outdone themselves!

Hello Fancy Pants Designs Fans! My name is

part of my life, and I am very thankful to be a part

Exclusive Project with Jess Mutty: Tag Frame
What you will need:
Fancy Pants Designs supplies:
Hopscotch: patterned papers
Hopscotch: Sticker Fundamentals
Hopscotch: Chipboard Alphas
Hopscotch: Mingled Buttons
Country Boutique: white corrugated paper
assorted ribbons
Other supplies:
Frame with 7.5 x .5 photo area (approximate)
small pieces of twine
sewing machine
Frame: Jess Mutty
Remove the glass from your frame. Cover
the frame backing with a piece of Puddle
paper. Cut a 6.5”x8.5” mat from the
Grove paper. Machine stitch (or draw) a
double line around the edge and adhere it to the
center. Mat the “Live the life…” sticker on brown
Grove paper, trim around the edges, and adhere
the sentiment to the center of the frame itself,
using foam tape for dimension.
1
For Tag 1: Border punch a
2” strip of Collage paper
and add it to the center of
the tag. Add a small photo.
Create an accordion flower
with a 1”x12” strip of the
Tangerine paper by scoring
it every quarter inch, fan
folding it, adhering it into a
circle, and flattening it. Add
a circle of Seamstress and
a chipboard monogram.
For Tag 2: Adhere three
small banner stickers to
the top. Cut a 1.75”x2”
piece of Seamstress, add it
to the bottom left, and put
three sentiment stickers on
top. Adhere a chipboard
button topped with a
regular button.
2
Hand or die cut three 2.25”x5.25” tags
from the Strolling, Butternut, and Skipping
papers.
For Tag 3: Adhere two small
banner stickers at the
top. Overlap a small photo
with a tab sticker and a
sentiment sticker. Layer a
punched circle of Butternut
under the top right corner
and top it with a chipboard
button. Cut a small heart
from the white corrugated
paper and adhere it to the
bottom left.
Use cardboard or foam tape on the back
of the tags to pop them up and adhere
them to the center frame mat. Carefully
glue a small length of twine along the
banner stickers on tags two and three. Tie a bow in
the top of each tag with ribbon.

And then you just sit back and admire your new
home décor! This would be a fantastic project for
babies, kids, family, weddings, or really any subject
depending on the products you choose!
