A little card

Got another card up for Di's Card Sketch Blog:

Love this new paper by K&Co!

Have a fun and spooky Halloween!!!

Boo!

This is a fun hanging sign I made this weekend. I can't remember if I found these unfinished letters at Michaels or JoAnn's but wanted to give them a makeover - here's the "before" picture:

The letters are pretty big, about 6" tall, so it made a nice big hanging sign. I used the new "Scared Silly" kit by Dani Mogstad and Jacque Larsen. I love the paper and embellishments in this kit!

Got some fun news from Julie Ann over at Everyday Digital Scrapbooking, she asked me to be the Guest Designer for November so I am thrilled! I got a peek at some of the things that'll be going on there in November and although my lips are sealed, I can tell you that you might want to mark your calendars to check in during the month cause there's good stuff coming!

Later!

I Want Candy...

Got a new card up on Di's blog. I used some really cute Halloween papers by American Traditional Designs, Bazzill, ribbon and some buttons. I made the black border along the center with my Cricut Expression and the Accent Essentials cartridge. I picked up the new Cricut Expression a few weeks ago when AC Moore had the bundle package (the machine, mat, 4 cartridges and the markers) on sale. I still have my original Cricut, don't know what I'm going to do with it- its stuck in the closet for now.

That's about it for now - hope to have more stuff to share really soon.....

This and That....

Happy Wednesday! I sure do miss posting to my blog :( I've just been so darn busy!

I had a couple of projects in this month's Paper Trends Mag:

Friendship Journal (made for my dd)

An Altered File Box, and


"Turkey Day" Treat Bag (filled with sunflower seeds)

Also have a new card up today for the latest card sketch over at Di Hickman's Blog:



and lastly....a card in the latest edition of Scrapstreet Ezine (you've gotta check out this online magazine if you haven't yet, its fun, fabulous and FREE!!!!!):

Have great week!

A Halloween Goodie and Some Cards

I'm not sure if you would call this a bag or a box - it's a wooden box shaped like a bag. I wanted to make something Halloweenish with Dani Mogstad's new Spookable kit and I had two of these bag-boxes in my storage cabinet so this is what I came up with:

I designed the elements and then after I got it all assembled I realized it was the same saying that was used on the candy tent from the Design by Dani October newsletter...oops...no wonder it seemed like a good saying to put on a candy bag, I had just seen it there.

BTW - Dani's having a sale right now to celebrate the the store's 2nd birthday so check it out:
