Halloween card

I have one friend that really loves Halloween.  She even named her cat Halloween!  So I make a card for her every year. I don't send out Halloween cards but they are fun to make and its nice to have someone to send them to.  I also had my card making friends group over to make cards and made this tag for the goodie bags.  Love making tags.

Color Challenge Accepted


I recently purchased some wonderful stamps and dies from My Favorite Things (MFT).  I have purchased from them before of course - just wanted to use my recent fun things!  They have weekly challenges and I decided to play in this one.  It is a color challenge.  How fun!  I hope to win, would love to get more blueprints.  The scalloped edge and the white inner frame are dies from blueprints #27.  There are 8 dies in the set and you can mix and match them any way you like.  I love getting so many pieces in one set!  The flowers are from the flashy florals set.  I decided to use colored card stock to die cut this time rather than stamping the color on white card stock, just changing things up a bit.  I like the effect.  I am really pleased with how this turned out.  Thank you for looking!





Hello, it's been awhile!


Time flies when you're having fun (or busy as the case may more accurately be!). I just checked into my blog and it has been almost exactly a year since I last posted.  I am shocked!  Especially since I've made a couple hundred cards this year.  The most I've ever made in one year.  I have been helping out varying causes, some have auctioned my cards (and my friend's cards combined) for charity, some have been for my church group for notes and birthdays, some for ladies with breast cancer to use to thank friends that have been there for them.  Plus some I can't part with!  Here are two more recent cards with Fall colors.
