Shoes



Hello good friends! How are you doing? It's the weekend! YAY!

I'm trying to get my Halloween cards done. To get in the spirit, my friend, Kevin, helped me put together a new banner for this blog. I picked out the images I liked, and Kevin put them together. In addition, I changed the background color to purple. Do you like it? Snuggles is even in there!

This card was created using Dare 2B Artsy's Good Witch Shoes stamp set. I also have the dies that go with it but didn't need them for the card. The background paper is from Gina K Designs.

I'm sending this card to my sister since she loves shoes and has a great sense of humor. During Halloween, I usually only make 4 cards -- one for my brother, sister and two sons. Halloween isn't a big holiday for me, but I can at least make a few to go with the theme.

Hope you're having a good weekend so far. Our weather is beginning to change here, with temps moving from the 80s and 90s to the 70s. Not exactly sweater weather, but close!

I appreciate you stopping by today. Your comments and visits mean the world to me, and I hope to see you again real soon ~

Boo!



Hi everybody! How's your weekend coming along? I am happy to post again. It's been too long!

For this card, I used a stamp from Gina K Designs.com called Wicked. It's full of fun Halloween stamps, and I could hardly wait to use it.

On the front I glued a paper spider web I purchased from Stampin Up! (No Longer Available) They are very delicate and not easy to glue, but I had some Ranger Multi Medium Matte that came with a brush, so I just brushed it on and it worked! The circle dies came from Gina K Designs as did the patterned paper. The twine is from my stash, but I believe I purchased it from my local Hobby Lobby store.

This was a fun card to create. I am including it in Stamp TV's Mix It Up Monday Challenge where we're supposed to include twine.

Time to sign off -- Snuggles is having a rambunctious day and it's very hard for me to get anything accomplished here. If she catches on that I'm on the computer, she'll jump on the keyboard and add a few words herself! Help me! I'm too old for this. ❤

Thank you for stopping by today. I appreciate your comments and visits very much, and I hope to see you again real soon ~
