Win free chocolate? Oh yeah!

Over on Mom Bloggers, they are having a Hershey’s giveaway! Who doesn’t like chocolate? Especially if it is for you to be able to give to friends and little monsters that may come knocking at your door!

This year, I think the kids want to give out candy at the door instead of going out to get some (well, they will probably want to do that too!) and we might just start the Boo’ing tradition here in the neighborhood!

Will you be attending any Halloween parties? Why not check out Hershey’s celebration page for some great, yummy looking ideas!

disclaimer:
I have created this post in attempt to win a halloween prize pack from Hershey, as a participant in the Mom Bloggers Club.

Birthday Cards

So, as you may know, there are MANY challenge sites out there. Heart 2 Heart is one that is for people who use and love Close To My Heart Products! (I must admit, they are WONDERFUL products!) Well, this week, their challenge was Birthday cards!

Well! I have made a bunch of those the last 2 weeks or so! (and most I haven’t even posted yet!!) So, here are a few for you!! They are all made with the Zipadee paper pack, that will be retiring in December, so get it while you can!!

More scrapping fun!

So, I was able to use two fun things with this page! First, Maz (An Artsy Indaba) has some really neat templates available. But they aren’t your ordinary templates! You get, not only the template, but some actual elements as well! It was super fun and easy to use! And I chose to work with Liz’s (Band Geek Designs) Citron and Saffron Kit. Both of these are available at Digiridoo!

And this one, I used a template from Caryn (Color with Caryn) and a kit from Stacy (Stacy’s Back Door Designs). It was so fun to use both of these!!

New album workshop coming up!

I have been working with one of our mixed albums and the new Mistletoe paper pack. I am LOVING it!! It is so much fun!! Take a look at these!

The front and back covers are the same. I added little pockets to put tags in for journaling and/or photos!










As soon as I have the dates set, I will let everyone know!

It’s all Nichole’s fault

So, Nichole, over at Creatique Innovationz made a cute little swing/flip top card for the H2H challenge this week, and then went and decided to do a ustream video of it. I missed the card part, but got to chat with her for a bit afterwards. (and then watched the video of the card making part). She is so great! (and has a giveaway going on on her blog, so make sure to check it out!)

Anyway, I had to go and make one too. darn her anyway! So, I would have used Steve, but he went and ran away, so I used the Hooligans paper pack, and the stamp set that comes with the Hooligans Workshop on the go. (they are GREAT fun, and an awesome value too! If you want one, just click my shop link over there to the right!)

So, my flip card has a bookmark inside it. I don’t know who I will gift it to, just yet . . but it will go somewhere! 🙂

Beachy Keen now Available!

And I am going to give out 2 free kits! Take a look at this great kit! Perfect for summer at the beach or lake photos, general summer photos, and even spring photos! This kit was so fun to make! The colors work so well together, and the sand overlays are just perfect to add just a bit of sand to your pages!

You also get a full alpha with this kit. Uppercase, Lowercase, numbers, and punctuation as well! So many kits now days don’t have an alpha with them!

It’s that time of year!

The new catalog is coming out in 2 days, and I have some GREAT cards to share with you! They are so super fun to make! I have some great project workshops coming up too, so you will want to make sure to get signed up for those! (Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas (cards and presents!)

I hope you are ready for some photos!!

These are all made with the Hooligans paper pack and/or the Hooligans Workshop on the Go (WOTG) (which comes with paper, cardstock, and a stamp set that you can ONLY get in the Workshop on the go kit!). I am absolutely in LOVE with these little monsters! (and Kami has named the one on the easel card “Steve”, and Steve says Hi!)

These first five cards are all made with the WOTG kit:


These cards are made with the Hooligans level 2 paper pack. This first guy, his horns, nails, and feet are all shiny/glossy with liquid glass.

Steve here, is sporting the new pearls that we are carrying. You can see on the lagoon (blue) and gypsy (purple) papers, that the paper has a bit of a pattern, and it is ‘finger prints’! It is pretty cool!

These cute little cards use our flip flaps to make the stars dangle! Isn’t that just adorable!?! And there is Glitz Glitter Glue on the stars to make them sparkle more!


And these two gorgeous cards were made from the Mistletoe paper pack, aren’t they beautiful? (there will be some card workshops so that you can make these, and I will even make up some kits so that you can purchase the pieces to make multiple cards, if you would like!)

This first card uses one of the new flowers that are available. How perfect are they for cards? Adorable!! They are available in both red and white.

This card uses some of the new pearls as well. You could use some sparkles on this card instead, and it would really be blinged up!

I do hope that you like these! If you would like to schedule a home party for you and some friends to make these (or other cards) or if you would like to sign up for one of my workshops, just drop me a line!
