One Eyed Halloween....

Hello and Happy Wednesday! I tell ya, when Fall
Begins the time just seems to fly by a lot faster
than Winter does! Or Maybe that's just me? :o)
I was just checking out the weather and it looks
like we may be getting our first snow already! UGH!
I had to turn the heat on last night because it's
so chilly here... I LOVE Fall... It's a shame it
never sticks around to long in my neck of the woods!
Anywhoo... I told ya yesterday that I would have a
Halloween card for ya using my Favorite tool the Cricut!
So let's get right down to it... Here it is....


Ok... now looking at it... I think I could have added
some Faux stitching or something... :o)
Here are the details:

Card stock, Ink - Stampin' Up
Designer Paper - DCWV Halloween Stack
Stamp - Heidi Grace (Halloween)
Gooey Border Punch - Martha Stewart
Cartridge - Bump In the Night
(Monster) is #38 on the overlay and
he was cut @ 3"
CTMH Art Philosophy (1/2 Scallops)
#49 on the overlay cut @ 2"

See another quick simple fun Halloween card! :o)
Thanks so much for stopping by have an AWESOME DAY!!

Warm Wishes.....

Hello and Happy Tuesday Everyone! I hope you're
week is off to a great start! Mine isn't going to bad!
I have a Stampin' Up Party this week... I love having those!
a bunch of gals get together and we create either a card
or a Layout and use all Stampin' Up Supplies.... I'm sure
you've notice by ALL my posts that I am a HUGE Fan of
Stampin' Up Products! They have quality stamps, paper,
ink, Digital content and MORE! Of course I also LOVE
the Other companies like Papertrey Ink, CTMH, Creative Memories!
I just use a lot of Stampin' Up Products.... :o) Soooo
today's project is with all Stampin' Up Products....
It's one of my Digital Hybrid Cards I did over
the weekend... I hope you like it...


 This was soooo simple to create! This is actually one
of the designer images in the "My Digital Studio" Program...
But I wanted to make it myself... So I printed out the
leaves and Warm Wishes on Vanilla Cardstock....
Then I printed out the bottom section on
White Cardstock.... I did the same thing with
the green strip as well... Cut them all down to what
I needed for a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 Card....
Then added the pretty ribbon and BAM!
A quick lovely Thanksgiving/Fall Card!

Thanks for stopping by today... I'll be back
tomorrow with a Halloween Card using my
Favorite tool the Cricut! Have an AWESOME DAY!!

Bounty Season.....

Hello and Happy Thursday Everyone! I can't believe the
week is just about over! YEA!!! Of course I need to go do
my Monthly grocery shopping.... UGH! Not my favorite thing
to do.... but I guess we gotta eat! Right? LOL BY the looks
of this weeks cards.... you can tell I'm in Full HOLIDAY MODE!
I got Halloween, Christmas and today's card Thanksgiving!
Have I told ya that Fall is my favorite season! LOL
I guess I like it so much because of these 3 wonderful holidays! :o)
And of course the COLORS! My Favorite Colors of all time!
Well.... Next to BLUE! LOL Today's card was made
without my Cricut! I can hear all the gasping! :O)
It's a Hybrid Card.... I used My Digital Studio from
Stampin' UP and my regular crafting supplies....


Border Punch - Fiskars
Photo Paper - Canon
Twine - Papertrey Ink
Leaf Charms - Oriental Trading
Sentiment - (Bountiful Blessings) Pink By Design
Everything else is Stampin' Up!
I designed all the elements in My Design Studio
and then printed it out on Photo Paper
Then I added the Border Punch and Green Dotted paper
added the twine & Leaves
Attached it to the Card stock... then added
the sentiment using a Stampin' Up Punch....
The longest part was creating the design....
I change my mind A LOT & trying to get the
sizing I want.... Other wise a fairly easy card
to put together! :o)

Well that's it for me this week! Thanks for stopping
by and I hope all of you have an AWESOME Week/Weekend!!!
