Hooray for Halloween!

In our house, Halloween is a big deal.  My kids get so excited and love to dress up in their costumes and go trick-or-treating.  I am sad to say that they have outgrown the "cute" stage and both wanted to be something scary this year, the scarier the better-as my youngest puts it.

What kinds of crazy characters will you have hanging around your house this Halloween?  Why not get a jump start on some fun Halloween pages using Moonlight-October's Kit of the Month.

Fall Favorites-September Stamp of the Month

If definitely feels like Fall outside today, so I thought I would share a few cards that were created using the September Stamp of the Month-Fall Favorites.  Here's a look at the images included in the Fall Favorites set.

5x5 Card I created using the Flirty Papers, Bakers Twine & Dark Chocolate Striped Ribbon.

Another example of a standard size card using the Flirty & Moonlight Papers and NEW Burlap Ribbon-love the Burlap!  The pumpkins were colored in using the Watercolor Pencils and Blendy Pen.

These 2 cards (& the 2 below) showcase the NEW Alcohol Markers-used to color in the images.

Today I thought I would share a few cards I created using this fun stamp set.   I used several different papers and accessories, giving me a variety of everyday cards to have on hand.

Two different looks using the Flirty papers-love that rich raspberry color!

This one showcases the Scholastic papers and the Harvest Bakers Twine.

This card was created using the Dakota papers, Bakers Twine(I can't seem to get enough of the twine!) and the Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge.

Love the Clementine papers and the Cottage Assortment-stitched fabric flowers that are adhesive backed and come with the buttons already on them.

This card uses the La Belle Vie papers and Just Blooms Flutter Paper Shapes & the Bakers Twine-again.
