Ghost Card

I made this card based on the sketch from the Peachy Keen Challenge Blog site. I was trying to follow the blog challenge, but this is the 1st one I was ready to make. I used Recollections Halloween stack. The ghost stamp is from Peachy Keen and Happy Halloween is from Studio G (I think). The scallop and circle came from the Celebrations cartridge. I do love comments, so please leave some!!

Paper Bag Halloween Album

I learned how to make the paper bag album over on the Christmas with the Cricut blog. I have always wanted to try this, but didn' know how!

I used 3 bags and the Halloween Recollections Paper. All the cuts came from Doodlecharms, Hello Kitty Greetings, and Paper Doll Dress Up. The inserts have tabs punched from a Stampin' Up! punch. I used the drippy goo punch on the cover and one other page. And of course I used Stickles!! Lots of pictures!!

Cupcake Birthday

So I had a day off and all I got done was one card! I decided to try this for scrapsketch and I did need a card for someone. My downfall was the colors!! I wanted to use browns/oranges for it and just didn't have a lot to work with. I just had to go to Michael's to get some ribbon. And since I was there some paper, more ribbon, and stamps--LOL!! I used Home Decor for the Cupcake/cherry.

Girly Girl

One of my goals is to actually get some scrapbooking done. I just started working on year 2001!! But hopefully, having this blog will help me.

This one is of my daughter--she loved to dress up! I used Hannah Montana Rock Star font for the G and Daddy's Girl font for the other letters. I used the Prom Girl for the Paper Doll. I used Skittles for the 1st time and of course, stickled the letters and doll.

Ladybug Thoughts

I decided that my blog should have some posts, so I've been going through my Photobucket pictures to see what I have. I've made these cards in the last few months. This one was one of my favorites. I just love Doodlecharms!! These ladybugs came from that and I just found the paper in my stash.

Ray of Sunshine

I just loved this card. All the cuts are from the Tinkerbell cartridge. I just really liked the colors. You can tell I love stickles--I use them on just about everything!!

Home Decor Cherry

I got the Home Decor cart when I saw someone use this cherry. I also love the cupcake. I do want to play with this cartridge some more with some of the other cuts!

The picture is a little blurry. Now that I have a blog, I'll have to do a little better!! The paper is from the DCWV Sweet Stack. And I completely stickled that cherry!!

Soccer Season is here!

Well today was my son's 1st game of the season and it was a win!! Yes!! Most of the boys have played together for a year, but this was the 1st game in the next age group. Now that we have a game every Saturday, it will be even harder to get any creating done!! (And it doesn't help that I'm team manager.) But I'm going to try. A Gypsy sure would come in handy for those weekly practices!!!!
