Halloween Greetings

 


Hello weekend, doing a drive by post before I go to bed!  I meant to share yesterday but didn't get around to doing it. I  made this card for challenge #558  - Hey Ghoulfriend over at Shopping Our Stash.  I used  random papers from my stash, the pattern piece came from a Love Nicole 6x6 pad, cut the boot and numbers from the Happy Haunting Cricut cartridge, some Queen & Co gems and  the Nested Scallop Rectangle set from Cottage Cutz.  This was indeed a project where I shopped my stash! I am also sharing this card for the monthly Anything Goes challenge over at A Cut Above challenge blog.

Thank you for your visit, continue to be safe and hurry back again soon.

Boo


 Hello Saturday, I'm back today sharing another greeting card; I think I need to take some time this weekend and get some cards ready to go postal.  Today's card share was created for the #craftydares challenge over on IG hosted y @tellhimthanku.  The dares for this week were: leaves, a face and a vegetable/fruit.  So I pulled out a very old I think Recollections stamp and die set and put this Boo! card together!  I am sharing this card for the Shopping Our Stash #507 - Halloween  and Use Your Stuff #495 - Autumn Mood Board.

Thank you for your visit, take care and hurry back soon!

Happy Halloween


 Happy Friday and hello weekend, doing a quick drive by post as I should be getting ready for work.  Today's card share is a one created using sketch inspiration from Tuesday Morning Sketches #728.  I created this card for the kickoff of the craftydares season over on IG.  I rarely do Halloween so I didn't have much in my stash so I used a candy corn file from the Silhouette design store, another one of the dares was non-traditional colors I decided to go with pastels/soft colors.  I used mostly paper scraps that were just sitting around waiting to be used, stamped the sentiment with some TH distress ink and added some pearls and this card was done!

Thank you for your visit, take care and hurry back soon!

CIU 263 - Halloween

 Hello and happy Friday, let the weekend begin!  Today's card was created for the Cut it Up challenge blog.  The theme for challenge #263 is Halloween and the sponsor is DRS Designs.

I chose to use this adorable pumpkin from our sponsor, I colored it using some alcohol markers; I don't think I'll ever master coloring!  I used papers from the Love Nicole Happy Haunting 6x6 paper pad, a Stephanie Barnard Sizzix dotted oval die set some Jilli Bean Soup enamel stars and a Create Indie stamp for the sentiment. I received that stamp set from one of my scrappin' besties many years ago!  I stamped the sentiment with some pigment white ink, the stamp and ink has been in my stash sitting unused!  Decluttering and organizing has become my life's work.  I am sharing this card for the Shopping Our Stash challenge #456 -Frightfully Delighful/Halloween.

Now that you've seen my card, I hope you will visit the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration, create and share your Halloween project for a chance to win some crafty goodness from our sponsor.  The challenge starts today and ends Wednesday, November 2, 2022 at noon EST.

Thank you for your visit, continue to be safe and hurry back soon!

CIU #185 - Ghosts, Goblins and Ghouls


Hello and happy Friday, seasonal temps in today's forecast.  Today I am sharing my latest design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog, the theme is Ghosts, Goblins and Ghouls and the sponsor is Stinkin Cute Paper Piercings.

This was another one of those themes that was a struggle for me since I really don't do Halloween.  I decided to look through some of my Cricut cartridges and Silhouette files for a little inspiration.  My project includes a treat bag and a card;  the bag is a file from the Silhouette online store and the ghost on the card  was cut using the 3 Birds on Parade Cricut cartridge.  After I decided what I wanted to do the project came together nicely (I think) and I used items that have been in my stash for a long time. First time using the Darice falling dots embossing folder, not sure whether you can see it on the card!

I hope you will stop by the Cut it Up challenge blog for more design team inspiration and decide to share your Ghosts, Goblins and Ghouls project for a chance to win some crafting goodness from Stinkin Cute Paper Piercings.  The challenge starts today and ends Wednesday,  October 30, 2019 at noon EST.

Thank you for your visit, hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Got Candy?


Hello and happy cool Thursday but sunny morning.  I'm back today to do a quick drive by post of a Halloween card that I created using sketch inspiration from  the October card sketch over at Stick it Down.  The pattern papers came from a MS Essentials paper pad, the bag and candy is a cut from the Create-a-Critter Cricut cartridge and the sentiment came from a stamp set gifted to me from one of my scrappin' besties!   I'm sharing this card for the Halloween challenge #392 over at Die Cuttin' Divas.

Thank you for your visit, wishing you a wonderful day!

Cut it Up #158 - Halloween


Hello and happy Friday, seasonal temps and the possibility of rain in today's forecast.

I am back today to share my latest design team project for Cut it Up, our theme for this challenge is Halloween and our sponsor is Dreaming Tree.  You will finds lots of 3-D files and inspiration on their site, I chose to use the Jack-O-Lantern Tea Light and it is one of their free files.  I just pulled mostly scrap papers from my stash and cut the different layers with my Silhouette Cameo and I used a tealight candle that I purchased from Dollar Tree last year.  I watched their YT video on putting the holder together, I even pulled out my quilling tool and it came together quickly.

Head on over to the Cut it Up challenge blog for more inspiration from the design team and create your own Halloween project and share it for a chance to win a gift certificate from Dreaming Tree.  The challenge starts today and ends on Wednesday, October 17, 2018 at noon EST.

Take care and have a wonderful weekend.

Trick or Treat


Happy Halloween, I have been trying to post all day but as life would have it I am just getting around to it!  We are ready for our trick or treaters as I had my daughter to make goodie bags.  Today I am sharing another one of the cards that I put together for the card making station at work.  I am also sharing it for the die cut or punches challenge over at Use Your Stuff.  I cut the bag using the Doodlecharms cricut cartridge and a Martha Stewart border punch for the fence.  The stamped sentiment is from the winter holidays Autumn Leaves stamp set and a few Jellies from Queen & Co and this card was done.

Take care and enjoy the rest of your weekend and if you live in an area where you have to adjust your clocks don't forget!

Happy Halloween


Time to go back to work tomorrow and my weekend to do list isn't done!  I spent a lot of time getting some card kits together for work.  I am suppose to staff a table for the kids on Friday so I decided to have them put together some cards.  My cricut really got a workout cutting pumpkins, cats, spiders, ghosts, etc.  Today I am sharing one of the cards that I put together as an example.  I cut the cat and grass using the CTMH Artiste cartridge, stamped the sentiment using an Autumn Leaves stamp.  I am  sharing this card for the Fall challenger over at Scraps of Color and the any holiday challenge over at Hiding in my Craft Room.

Take care and have a wonderful week!

Happy Halloween

Are you ready for the little ghosts and goblins this evening, I'm not since I have yet to pick up any treats.  We usually don't get that many kids so I will pick something up on my way in from work.  I am not sure I am going to be home this evening because I am suppose to meet a friend for dinner.

I put today's card together last night as I was working on some other cards.  Just another signature simple card using my stash.  I used paper from the DCWV Year Round paper stack, a little bit of scrapper' floss, a spider brad and pumpkin stickers.  Now to decide who will be the recipient of this one card!

Be safe and have a great weekend.
