'Tis the Season... Home Decor'

 Hello & Happy Halloween Everyone!

It's Saturday and I'm trying to take it easy today

after last weeks back issues - I'm still

trying to get things done but not working as hard - :)

I've got my last Halloween project to share with you -

It's another Dollar Store Makeover -

I simply LOVE how this one turned out -

As you can tell, I made over a Haunt House Sign $ tree had -

I sanded this bad boy first and removed the paper design then

I used some White Primer paint

I used my Glittery Black Acrylic Paint to cover the front & Sides

then I used some White Paint to dry brush around the edges

I added some Mod Podge and let it dry

I found the cute Sentiment from my Silhouette program

and cut out the words with different colored vinyl

The Spider webs are cut out in vinyl on dies from

My Creative Time

and the Glittery Ghost is from the $ tree - It was in a package of

6? I think? It's wood and I Hot glued it down off to the side -

This is sitting on a shelf in my living room and I could not be happier

with how it turned out! 

THANK YOU for coming along with me on my

weeks-long Halloween projects!

I really do hope I have more time to sit down and type out 

blog posts and maybe even visit my favorite blogs for a change...

I know I'll get there so please be patient with me!

I'm wishing you all a FABULOUS HALLOWEEN!

Eat lots of Candy and enjoy time with your kids!

 Happy Friday Crafty Friends!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVE!

Are you able to take the little ones out

for Trick or Treating? OR are you trying to be safer

about it this year due to Covid?

Since I don't have any little ones, I'll be staying in -

We live far away from others with children so

no trick or treaters are coming my way -

Our small town is having a Trunk or Treat that everyone

can participate in, but I've got a lot going on still

so maybe next year I'll be able to join in. :)

I still have 2 posts left to share my Halloween projects 

and I want to THANK YOU if you've been checking back ALL week!

I spent an entire evening writing out all the posts

for this week (when my back went out on me)

It took me a while to write them because I had to stop

due to the pain - Don't worry it's better now...

My body was just reminding me to take a break

from all the home renovations, so I DID! :)

Here's another Halloween Home Decor Remake

that I made using a Wooden Witch Hat I found

at a Target Bullseye Section - :)

 I honestly didn't have to do too much to this one -

It was already painted black and has black glitter

around the edges - 

I sanded it a little bit and added some

dry brush white paint - Then I Mod Podged it before

adding my vinyl sentiment that I found in the Silhouette store

The Spider Webs and Spider are dies from My Creative time

This is sitting on my Coffee Bar next to my other Witch Sign I

shared over a week ago - Super FUN & CUTE!

See ya Tomorrow!

Have a BEAUTIFUL DAY!!!

For my Crafty Friend....

 Hello & Happy Thursday Everyone!

Halloween is just around the corner and I've got another

quick Halloween card to show ya!

Just like yesterday's post I made this card way back in February -

The We R Memory Retro Glam kit had the perfect colors

for Halloween cards so I thought? Why Not?

Here's what I made --

This turned out to be such a fun, cute card!

Here's how I made it ---

The sweet image is from Jaded Blossom (Holiday Dress Up)

I colored her up with some Stampin' Blend Markers

The Sentiment is from Stamp Addict & I used

WOW! Opaque Vanilla White Embossing powder, Versa Mark Ink, & a Heat tool

I used several scrap pieces from the kit to make this design

The Cardstock is Sahara Sands from Stampin' Up

Rectangle Stitched Frame die is from My Creative Time

See ya Tomorrow!

Have a BEAUTIFUL DAY!!

Spooktacular Slim Line Card

 Hello & Happy Wednesday Everyone!

I hope your week is moving along quickly -

I've got another pre-scheduled post to share -

and it's another Halloween card! YAY!

I actually made this card months ago...

Like before I moved! LOL

Hey, sometimes you just want to make a Halloween card in April!

This was the 1st Slim Line card I made back in April

with some new Slim Line dies (at the time) from Trinity Stamps

The designer paper was from a paper kit (WeR Memory - Retro Glam Kit)

 I had and shared several other projects from - I thought the colors were perfect for Halloween cards so I ended up making 2 different ones - 

I'll share the other one tomorrow! :)

The images & Sentiment are from Pink and Main (Spooktacular)

 and I've had them colored up

for a while sitting in one of my craft bags - I watercolored the

images with my Zig real brush pens & Bristol Cardstock

I used my Brother Scan N Cut to cut out the images

I added some assorted gems from my stash

I think it turned out so cute!

See Ya Tomorrow!

Have a BEAUTIFUL DAY!!

Jack O Lantern Decor'

 Happy Sunday Everyone!

I hope this post finds you all well!

I'm gonna try and make this a quick post and

it has been pre-scheduled because as I said yesterday

my time is very limited - :)

Here's another Fun Halloween Makeover

of a $ store sign - 

Here's how I made it ---

1.) I Sanded the entire front of the original design and

peeled off whatever was there

2.) I painted it with some white primer

3.) I used some painters tape to separate 

the pumpkin shape from the lower portion

4.) Then I painted the pumpkin portion and sides with some 

orange acrylic paint

5.) I went back over the pumpkin with one or two shades

of a tan paint just to add some dimension

6.) I painted the lower portion with some black glitter acrylic paint

7.)  Then I dry brushed on some white paint to give it a spooky feel

8.) I painted on some Mod Podge and let it dry

9.) I went into my Silhouette program and picked out

a pumpkin face and cut it out with some black vinyl

10.) Found a Sentiment it the Silhouette and edited it a 

little bit to fit on my sign then cut out the different words

with assorted vinyl colors

11.) I used some Spider dies from My Creative Time and die cut

them out with white vinyl

12.) Then I went back in with some Papertrey Ink Twine

and twisted it around the lower portion of the pumpkin and tied a bow. 

It looks cool on my shelf in the living room!

Have a BEAUTIFUL DAY!!!
