Halloween Birthday Gift!

Hello and Happy Wednesday Everyone! Heck....

HAPPY HALLOWEEN to you! :o) Today is a very

special day for one of my very special friends! She

was born on Halloween! What a surprise that must

have been to her parents! LOL Any way... I've told ya

that I needed to get something made for her and I had

pretty much 1 day to do it in..... I know, I know... Terrible

friend! It's NOT like I didn't know when her birthday was...

It's totally easy to remember! Or so you'd think! LOL

Well, since I only had so much time to do it in

here is what I created for her....

I had this can and said to myself... self

you could totally make something out of this can

which is how this whole thing got started! LOL

(Bear Cut @ 6")

My Friend LOVES, LOVES, LOVES

Create a Critter sooo, that's what inspired

me to design this with that in mind! I told her

I had gotten this cartridge (Create a Critter 2) 

and it's on her list of cartridges to get, 

so I thought it would be

fun to cut out some of the animals and put them

on the can for her.... The inside is filled

with crafting stuff...

(Owl cut @ 6")

Of course it turned out a little

differently than what I had in mind...

But since time really wasn't on my side

I just went with it.... :o)

(Turtle Cut @ 6")

I added gems, stickles, ribbon, twine,

googlie eyes, action wobbles to all of them

(Bee cut @ 6")

Designer paper is DCWV, I used 2 12x12 sheets 

to cover the entire can & lid..... I added some

ribbon as the border around the top & bottom

of the can, which now I'm not sure why I did???

(Ghost cut @ 4")

Then, I HAD to make her a card to go

along with what I started.... The card is

cut from my Cameo, so are the words....

The Spider is from Create a Critter 2

Cut @ 2 3/4"

I HAD to fancy up the inside a little

for my girlfriend... She's totally worth

doing the inside of a card! :o) The Monster

was cut @ 2 3/4" , the stamp is from 

My Creative Time... The inside saying is

from my Hallmark program....

Well, let's hope she likes it! Thanks so

much for stopping by and seeing what I

created for my friend! I hope everyone has 

a SAFE & HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Have an AWESOME DAY!!!

Hello and Happy Tuesday Everyone! What... 2 days in a row I'm posting????

What's wrong with me? Well.. let's see... Halloween is TOMORROW already!

and I really haven't made hardly any Halloween cards this year.... That's totally

unusual for me! But I've had a busy month, so that's my excuse... :o) And since

tomorrow is Halloween, I thought I would share my last 2 creations with you,

before November 1st! :O) Yesterday I showed you my card for my September

Monthly card swap. Sooo now I thought I would show ya October's card

for our monthly card swap... We were to make a card for Fall/

Halloween/ or Thanksgiving... Here's mine...

 

I tried several times to get a good photo, but for

some strange reason, this card did not want it's

picture take! UGH! Sorry about that! Any who...

 

The moon was cut with Bazzill shimmer CS and then

I embossed it with the Cuttlebug Swirls Folder....

I flood filled the tree/fence with some designer

paper in my Cameo program, printed it out and let my

Cameo do the rest! The dotted designer paper is from

DCWV.... And the Tweety is a print design from

my cameo as well.... I printed & cut Tweety out

2x's and popped him up on the fence....

I created the tag myself and used an eyelet &

some bakers twine to tie it together.... The stamp is

from My Craft Spot..... I inked around all the edges.....

 

Well that's all I have for today! Come back tomorrow

to see the project I made for my girlfriend whose

Birthday is on HALLOWEEN!!!! Yesss... I got it all

done yesterday... I had the day off, so it was a MUST! :o)

 

Thanks sooo much for stopping by....

Have an AWESOME DAY!!!!

Hello and Happy Monday Everyone! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

Remember in my last post I said I had ALL day Saturday to create... Well

I spent ALL day trying to make 1 thing! UGH!!! I mean I had to make 12 of

them, but it was 1 design! Go figure... Of course I took some time out to hang

with my family too, so that was some of it, then I stopped working on the card

set and started to read a book on my new Kindle Fire HD! Which I'm now in

LOVE with! It's my Christmas present to me from me! I'm so nice! LOL

I also got one for my hubby! I bought him the original kindle fire last year for

Christmas and he loved it and so did I... I've been wanting one ever since I got

him his! Then Amazon came out with the New Kindle Fire HD and WOW!!! I sooo

love it more than the other one! :o) Since we both got one, we decided to give

my youngest my hubby's old one... I got him a new green case for it... (Green's

his favorite color) so were gonna surprise him with it for Christmas along with

some other things he asked for.... :o) I know, I know... you're saying

THERESA we haven't even had Halloween yet

and you're talking about CHRISTMAS ALREADY!!! UGH!

YESSS.... I am! You know it'll be here before you know it

and I like to be on top of things when possible! So yes

I've already started shopping! BUT.... I haven't started on my

Christmas cards yet! GO FIGURE!!!! LOL

As of today, I'm working on a Birthday project for a

friend of mine, who's birthday is on HALLOWEEN!!!

Soooo, I've got pretty much 1 day to get it done! LOL

An idea came to me to Sunday afternoon while I was

baking bread and making dessert for dinner... So I

didn't have lots of time to work on it last night, so

hopefully today I can... ;o) Otherwise she's

getting flowers? Or something like that.... :o)

OK.... here's a card I made before I went on vacation...

 

I made this for our Sept. Card swap... Just never got

around to taking the pictures....

I used My Digital Studio to design it

Then I printed out all the elements

Then used my Cameo to cut out all the pieces...

Added some tulle ribbon and stamped

Happy Birthday, and there ya go! :o)

 

Well, that's it for me today! Wish me luck at

getting a gift done for my friend..... If I do,

 I'll try and get a picture to show ya what

I made! Thanks so much for stopping by!

HAVE AN AWESOME DAY!!!
