Happy Halloween

Hello everyone.  Happy Halloween !!!

We are going to visit with some friends tonight to celebrate Halloween - hope you all have fun tonight!

My lad doesn't like to go trick or treating and I got the idea to make a treat bag for him from Nic over at Coops Cluttered Corner blog.  Such a great idea - thank you Nic x

Here it is (sorry, the photo is not brilliant because it is quite large and I found it hard to photo)....

The Zombie boy is from Saturated Canary and the bat is a digi I won from Drawn with Character.  I coloured them both in with pro-markers, then cut them out and mounted them onto the bag.

and here is Brandon enjoying his bag...

Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenge No. 201 Sponsored by Bugaboo Digi Stamps and Stitch Bear's Digi Outlet

Good Afternoon all.

It's been half term for my lad this week and my whole week is so out of sync lol.  He's not even off for just the week because on Monday it is Inset day, so he doesn't go back to School until next Tuesday.  He's not complaining though lol.  It will take me another week to get back to normal!

Anyhow, there is another great challenge over at Penny's Paper-Crafty and this week it is a favourite theme ANYTHING GOES.  I love Anything Goes so come along and join in the fun.

Here is my card:-

I got this really cool image from Stitchy Bear Outlet to use.  It's a lovely image to colour in.  I love how they both have matching sunglasses.  I have coloured the image in with my Pro-Markers and the papers are really old.  I purchased this pad when I first started cardmaking aaaggges ago.  It's Papermania for Him 6 x 6.  Everything else is just from my stash.

You're So Special

Good morning everyone.  I've got a poorly kid off School today.  He's been battling a cold all week and it's got the best of him now, so time for him to rest and chill.

I've got a very girly card to share today.....

Told you it was girly lol.  This is an LOTV stamp ive had for ages and is coloured in with Pro-markers.  I added pearls to the bouquet.  I actually didn't plan too but the ink had smudged here, so the pearls are doing a good cover up job lol.  The papers are a mix of Doodlebug and Wild Rose Studio.  The flowers and lace are from Wild Orchid Crafts.  Everything else is just from my stash.
