October 2008

I have moved my posts from an old blog to this one and I have moved one month at a time.....I have been blogging far too long to post each one on a separate day. Enjoy the below post for the month mentioned in the tag line.

Happy Halloween

A quick little  Halloween card

Hello Friends!

Did you think I had abandoned you all?  Nope, I have just been super busy with kids sports and life in general.  But, I was able to make this little card this morning with a spare moment before heading out for the day. Of course, my camera was not available and I had to wait to take a photo.....hopefully I can get a few more things crafted before to many more days go by.
I stamped the chicken image on the card first and then I inked up my embossing folder before sending the card top through the Cuttlebug which put ink into the grooves of the card.  I love this technique!!

Pages, pages, pages.
I have been crafting like crazy!  When you are on a roll, you just have to go with it.  And BASIC GREY is SO easy to work with.

I wanted to make a long card this time and the BASIC GREY GRANOLA line was the perfect way to try it out.

Grand Canyon page

Ahhh, some pages made with BASIC GREY.  It was time to get some vacation pages done and this paper is the perfect answer to getting me jump started on the project.
You would think that Basic Grey was the only paper I ever used, but I love that company and it is SO hard NOT to use it in just about everything.

Christmas cards

Ok, it was dark in the house this morning and I had to use the flash.  You can still see the embossed image of the NESTABILITIES die on the inside of the front of the card.

Snow much fun

More fun playing with Cuttlebug.

I inked the inside of my Cuttlebug folder before I embossed the paper which gave it the darker appearance from the rest of the paper.
