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.

Thank You

Hello and happy Thursday afternoon, cool and windy after yesterday's rain.  Today I am doing a quick drive by post to share a card that I put together using inspiration from one of the monthly FB challenges from Sketch and Scrap.  I am getting ready for a little weekend getaway so I am trying to get as much done as possible.  I am happy to report that used more of the Jen Hadfield paper and epherma which really makes for some clean and simple cards.  I really like this 6x6 paper pad so I might even buy the 12x12 pad for LOs even though I really don't need anymore paper!

Thank you for your visit, I hope you'll return tomorrow for my design team project for the Cut it Up challenge blog.

Girls Rule

Hello and happy sunny Tuesday, mild temps in today's forecast after a cool morning.  Today's project share is a another LO completed for my daughter.  I think it looks better in person, hard to photograph the foil paper.  The pattern papers are from a Paper Studio Be Bold Be Bright paper pad, I cut the title using the Cricut George cartridge and the silhouettes and tag are files from the Silhouette online store. Although I don't care for the limited amount of space I think I'll be making mostly 8 1/2 x 11 LOs for Baby Girl while she's in college.  I'm sharing this LO for the Anything Goes challenge #100 over at Cardz TV and challenge #39 over at Love to Craft challenge blog.

Thanks for your visit, hope you have a terrific Tuesday!

Hello and happy Sunday, I am doing a quick drive by post as I just came in from church.  I am about to change my clothes and go to see the movie Overcomer.  Today's card share is a card using sketch inspiration from Atlantic Hearts #337, paper from the Bo Bunny Beautiful Brisk 6x6 paper pad, and a sunflower from the Walk in my Garden Cricut cartridge.  The stamped sentiment is from a CTMH stamp set.  I am sharing this card for the Crows, Scarecrows and Sunflowers challenge over at Bitten by the Bug 2.

Thank you for your visit, I hope you will return soon.

Saturday Musings

Hello and happy Saturday, it is cool right now but the forecast calls for mild temps today.  I am currently visiting my daughter for family weekend and since I was busy all week I didn't really have time to share.  Yesterday was my mother's birthday and since I put her card in the mail without taking a picture I didn't prepare a post to share which was my original intention.  Today I am sharing a card that I put together this morning using sketch inspiration from Tuesday Morning Sketches #524.  When I arrived here in Harrisonburg I stopped at Tuesday Morning looking for a gift but I wind up buying crafting goodness instead.  So today's card uses some of what I purchased, paper and ephemera from the Jen Handfield My Bright Life collection.  The Recollections gems are a part of my stash that I keep in my car.  I am sharing this card for the Anything Goes challenge #100 over at Cardz TV.

Thank you for your visit, take care and enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Planner Vibe

Hello and happy Tuesday, cloudy and rain sprinkles in our area today.  Did you know today is National Salmon Day, and it is one of my favorite things to eat!  Today's project share is my weekly spread from my happy planner.  I went to the Planning a Better me Retreat a few weeks ago and I decided I needed to use my planner more especially since I have lots of planner stuff too!  Just like my scrapbooking style my planning is clean and simple too, couldn't a very good picture.

Thank you for your visit, I hope you'll return soon.

World Card Making Day

Hello and happy Saturday, more seasonal temps in today's forecast.  Just doing a drive by post to share the one card that I created for World Card Making Day.   I used  more papers from the Hedi Swapp paper pad, an unbranded frame die, a Sizzix  flower die and a MS butterfly punch.  I used a Bo Bunny stamp for the sentiment which I heat embossed.  I am sharing this card for challenge #405 over at Shopping Our Stash.

Thank you for your visit, take care and enjoy the rest of your weekend.
