Rachel said...  Love the stitching you did on the stocking! Plus, I really like that red piece of cardstock you layered so that the stocking pops off the patterned paper. Fabulous! Happy early birthday!

Hello everyone and Happy Halloween! It's Challenge Me Monday at Fantabulous Cricut today and also my last day on the team.  But I plan on visiting every week and try to participate in the challenges, like you :)

Today's challenge is For the Birds--no really, use a bird or bird cage, or get ready for Thanksgiving and use a turkey :)  I choose to go with this adorable owl!

P.S.--Don't forget to leave a comment on Wednesday's post for your chance to win a copy of My Memories Digital software!!

Hello everyone!  My Memories Suite contacted me to review their digital scrapbook software and to give one away to one of my followers too!  Stay tuned to the end of the post for details on how to win :)

I have never tried digital scrapbooking before trying My Memories Suite. I think it is a lot of fun!  It comes with papers and extras already with the software.  Their website has lots of freebies and sales too.  You can do so much more than just scrapbook pages. 

Here is a page that I made for our puppy Charlie.  I did not use a template, just placed everything on my own.  The software let me save this as a jpeg to my computer so I could just pull it up and add here--I think this is so cool!


I have not tried printing yet, as I do not have a good photo printer.  I think I will have to invest in one -- LOL!  This will be a fun addition to my scrapbooking.  I think I would love to print out pages and still add some dimension.  But, hopefully I can get caught up a bit since I am way behi…

Hi eveyone! Fantabulous Cricut Challange Me Monday day is here!  Today's challenge is Purple People Eater-use purple and a monster or bug on your project :)  So fun!!



Here are the details:
Monster cut from Mini Monsters at 3 inchesMy Pink Stamper Spooky PunsDoodlecharms:Monster Mania Monster Dots PaperDoodle Twine Halloween AssortmentTCP Studios Rockets and Rayguns Googly EyesiRockAction WobbleBlack Diamond SticklesWhen I went to cut out the monster, the pieces for the eyes and mouth looked so tiny that I decided not to even cut them out.  I knew I would use the stickles for the mouth and then I pulled out these fun googly eyes I bought in September but hadn't used yet. Half the package has extended eyes that bug out.  You can see this in the second picture. 

I hope you have time to play along this week!!  Make sure to visit Fantabulous Cricut to see all the Design Team's Purple People Eaters :)

Hello Everyone!

Here is the card I made for Round 3 of the Practical Scrappers Card Making Contest.  Unfortunately, I did not make the next round so this is not on their site :(   I really love this card too.  But, I really want to thank everyone who supported me through this contest and I appreciate everyone taking the time to vote for me.

Hello everyone!!  I just love the 2nd Friday of the month--it's a Pink-alicious Blog Hop night!!  If you have just come from Edna's amazing blog Create with Expression, then you are in the right place.  If not, make sure to head over to My Pink Stamper so you can enjoy all the projects!
Today's challenge is to make a Treat or Goodie Bag with any holiday them and we had to use Yummy-licious or Sweet Goodness.  Mine is more of a box from Art Philosophy (of course!).
This next view shows the side.  It has a cut in the flaps you can't see so those sides just hook together.  Then you finish off the top with ribbon, or twine like I did.  These will go together so quickly and would make great treat boxes for school kids too!

Hi everyone!

I was going to post this yesterday, but my daughter had a chorus concert Tuesday night so the post did not get written :)

I've been working on Halloween and Fall cards and I am probably not done making those.  But today, I have a Christmas Card!  Not mine, haven't started those yet -- LOL!  This was for a card swap I am in.

Today is the last day of round 2 voting over at Practical Scrappers.  I'm working on the next round's card now so hope to see it on there site on Saturday :)  Here's the link …

Hello!  Here's the 2nd challenge card I made over the weekend.  I just LOVE this one!  It really is cute :)

Here are the details:
Mini Monsters Spider cut at 2 1/2 inchesElegant Edges border cut at 4 inches by 1 inchMy Pink Stamper Spooky PunsSpiderweb Cuttlebug Folder (borrowed)Black Twine From the TwineryiRockMagenta and Cotton Candy SticklesAction WobbleThis was really easy to put together.  The eyes on the spider are so tiny and I lost one.  My table mate (hi Angie!!) suggeted the iRock eyes which was just perfect--I used two different sizes on that.  Then I made the spider hang but left the twine loose and used an Action Wobble to attach the spider.

If you have a chance, I would appreciate a vote over at the Practical Scrappers Card Making Contest I am in. Card Contest Link You can vote everyday :)  I really to thank everyone who is supporting me through this contest!!  Found on Practical Scrappers:  *if you are unable to cast a vote but wish to you may send a vote via email t…
