Christmas!

I have been working on Christmas projects like crazy! I had a couple sales I participated in this month so preparing for them took up a lot of my time. We also had a family vacation to Disney World, we had a blast. Both boys just loved meeting all their favorite characters and going on rides.



I made these Christmas pages for my scrapbook club, it is hard to believe that Christmas is less than a month away. I hardly have any shopping done.
I wanted to leave as much space as possible for pictures since I take so many pictures on Christmas morning. I was not going to get the Holiday Stocking Die and then of course, I saw several projects that made me have to have it!

To make these pages:

Stamps - Delightful Decorations and Dear Santa
Ink - Chocolate Chip, Real Red, More Mustard and Baja Breeze
C/S - Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Real Red, Garden Green, Whisper White and Crumb Cake
Die - Holiday Stocking, Timeless Type and Stocking Accents
Punches - Ornament, Scallop Trim and Large Tag
Other - Whisper White Ribbon and Silver Stretch Cord

Have a great day!

Happy Halloween!

The picture above was the treat bag we made for the teacher. It matches the Halloween scrapbook pages and the card I posted the other day. I love those spooky butterfly eyes!


It is hard to tell but Ryan and I put some spiders and worms in the pail to make it scary!


These are the treats that we made for Ryan's preschool class. I saw the bats on Heather Summers blog and thought they would be perfect for young kids. I decided to make my bats a little more kiddish with the googly eyes and then I turned them into sucker holders. I also put a little halloween ring in there which helped the sucker from sliding. I also made mummies which are one of my favorite halloween projects, I have made them the last 3 years.

I hope you all had a wonderful Halloween!!

Spooky Night Card!

I really liked the way this card turned out. I don't make to many Halloween cards because I don't normally hand them out, I will have to find someone to send this one too! I used one of the medium sized butterflies for the spooky eyes on the card because the large one took up the entire front of the card. The ghosts on the DSP and used for the a in Happy Halloween make me think of Pac Man.

Have a great day!

I got my inspiration for these pages from Addie Wolfe, I loved the Butterflies for spooky eyes. I punched out different sizes of scalloped circles, stuck them together and used a Sponge Dauber and Whisper White ink to make the spooky sky.

Fall Thank You

This is the card that I made to match the scrapbook pages that I posted yesterday. To get both colours on the stamped image I first used More Mustard on the stamp and then used a Sponge Dauber with Soft Suede around the edges and in the center.

Falling Leaves!

I tied the leaves and acorn together with linen thread.



My scrapbook club has started back up this month and I will be making cards to match the scrapbook pages, I will post the card tomorrow. When I went to a regional event and got this stamp set, Day of Gratitude, I did not really care for it but as I have seen it used for various projects it has grown on me. I used the Gently Falling stamp set out of the Holiday Mini, Fall is my favorite so this set was a must have! I really wanted to use the Spice Cake DSP for my fall pages so I chose my colour scheme from it. I don't think I have ever made a scrapbook page without using punches so I added in some puncha art pumpkins.


To make these page:


Stamp Sets - Day of Gratitude and Gently Falling

Ink - Soft Suede, More Mustard, Pear Pizzaz, Crumb Cake and Sahara Sand

C/S - Soft Suede, More Mustard, Pear Pizzaz and Pool Party

DSP - Spice Cake

Punches - Wide Oval, Small Oval and Modern Label

Other - Linen Thread and Dimensionals


Have a great day!
