Halloween Card

Bubble Bubble Toil & Trouble! 

It's time for all the ghosts & goblins to come out. 

If you're like me, you love seeing all the cute li'l ones in their costumes. Living in the country doesn't warrant itself any trick or treaters though so I have to live vicariously through all of my friend's pictures on Facebook. 

...Or....I can make Halloween cards. 

Yep, that's just what I do. I'm not into the ghoulish, scary part of Halloween, but I do love the fun, happy stuff. Like this card for instance. It's another project we did at the team building a few weeks ago. 

I combined two fun stamp sets to make this card - Spooky Cat and Merry Cafe. Couple that with some fun Spooky Night designer series paper (DSP) and viola! cute Halloween card. 

Those mice are so fun to stamp (kinda like bats). I know they're not fun in real life, but for some reason, I get a kick out of stamping them (okay, so I'm not right! 😜)

Aaaaanyhow, I hope you have a marvelous Halloween tomorrow and you all get to see some cute kiddos. Supply list is posted below. 

Happy Stamping!

Class Halloween Card

Welcome to the weekend!!!

It's another cold, blustery day here in Illinois. I'm hearing stories from just South of us that they're seeing snow flurries 😯

I'm not ready for that yet. I still don't have my horse trailer camper winterized. I think my camping days are over for the year. Thankfully, I've got crafting to keep me busy through the cold months ahead. 😉

We made today's card in Stamp Class on Tuesday. I have to say, even tho' I'm biased, I LOVE this card! I'm not always happy with my creations, but this is one of those that I look at and think, "Perfect! I wouldn't change a thing!" I love it when cards come together like that. 

To be completely honest, I bought the Pick a Pumpkin Bundle simply for that pumpkin die cut. I LOVE it. And, as long as I was going to buy it, I might as well, get 10% off by buying the bundle, right???!!! Who doesn't love a bargain?

I hope you've enjoyed today's card share and I hope you get to spend time in your happy place today! 

All supplies for today's card are listed below.

Team Building Workshop

YAY! It's Friday! Bring on the weekend!

Yesterday I had the pleasure of doing a team building workshop with some pretty awesome people! I drove to the Quad Cities (my hometown) to share what I love with all of them. It was requested that I do 4 projects- and only one of them was a card. I usually make cards, but these projects were so fun that I'm going to have to start expanding my horizons 😉

Look at these happy faces. 

Our first project was a Halloween banner.

 I had so much fun designing this and putting it together!

I think the girls did too! Candi took a picture of hers as she was assembling: 

And she took a pic of Michelle with her banner when she was finished. 

TOO. MUCH. FUN!!!

I have never had the pleasure of meeting such great people until I started stamping. The camaraderie, friendships and fun that I experience in this hobby are second to none. 

Stay tuned, the other 3 projects will be posted soon :) 

HAPPY STAMPING!
