Halloween Series

Hi Everyone - 

I thought I would do a Halloween Series this year.  I have so many card and treat ideas I want to share.  My goal is one per week up to Halloween....we shall see if I can make it.  LOL.  The first card I made is this cute little witch card.
I am in love with my new Mini Monsters cartridge.  I know it came out last season but it's new to me.  ;)  I also love the mat stacks from Die Cuts with a View.  The are perfect for cards.  This paper made the layering super easy and I trimmed the greeting from a strip pattern in the stack.  I of course dug out my Drippy Goo boarder punch from Martha Stewart.  Anyone else remember when that was so hard to find?  It was so worth it because I still love that punch.
Supplies:  Cardstock (The Paper Co. & DCWV), Stickles (Ranger), Dimensionals (Stampin Up!), Cricut & Mini Monsters (Provo Craft), Drippy Goo Boarder Punch (Martha Stewart Crafts).

Thanks for stopping by.  Stay tuned for more Halloween projects.

Have a Crafty Day!

My Pinkalicious Blog Hop & Challenge

Hi Everyone - 

So Friday was My Pink Stamper's blog hop and challenge.  It was a fun one with a little twist.  It was a school theme but no card or scrapbook layout.  I loved what everyone has done so far.  I made a quick little book mark that is going to go into a teacher's care package.  I used the Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cartridge with my Gypsy to stretch a tag into a book mark and I sized another one about a quarter inch smaller for the layer.  The apple with the books is from Hello Kitty Greetings.
Supplies:  Cardstock (The Paper Co.), White Gel Pen (Uniball Signo), Stickles (Ranger), Cricut, Gypsy, Tags, Bags, Boxes and More & Hello Kitty Greetings Cartridges (Provo Craft), Crop-a-dile & Eyelet (We R Memory Keepers), Ribbon & Dimensionals (Stampin Up!).

Thanks for looking!  I had fun with this challenge.  :)

On an upcoming note:  Watch for my Halloween series beginning soon!

Happy Labor Day!

Hello -

It is Labor Day here in the US.  I am enjoying a day off work and will most likely go over to the labor day picnic and check out the craft fair.  This is sort of the end of summer and I love that it means my favorite season, Autumn is just around the corner.  So today's card features an autumn tree cut from Simply Charmed.  I chose not to cut the smiley face for this one.  This is a great all season cartridge.  The paper is from the new fall mat stack from DCWV.
