October 2010

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.

Witchin' you a Happy Halloween

 A fun card I just had to share! I was playing with my SIZZIX spider pop-up die and the new felt tape/ribbon from WeR and a little surprise on the inside.....so cute!!

A close-up view of the front panel with the Just Rite stamps and a few layers of different Spellbinders.

The inside view of the spooky spider web......

And my little bling spider.....gotta have a little sparkle!!  Black Diamond STICKLES does the trick.

School Photos

So what do you do with those group school photos?  In my kids books they are the start to each years photo set.  This is my oldest child's group photo.....he is a Junior now, so you know how far behind I am!  The kids faces and names are blurred, but you get the idea!

The RIDE ALONG

Racing is a theme in our house.....racing of all kinds.  This racing involves actual NASCAR race cars. The guys went to Chicago the first weekend of October and did the PETTY EXPERIENCE at Chicagoland Speedway.  Hubby did the "drive" and the boys did the "ride along" since they were not old enough.

Happy Holidays

Thinking of Christmas?  Yeah, why not.
I used a flower from a stash of flowers I have in my collection and I know we do not have in the store.  You could make some flowers like it with a Spellbinders poinsettia die and some glitter.  I just enjoy using up some stash once in a while.  My hoarding ways have left me with a ton of goodies that we do not have in the store anymore.  The acetate sheet is from the journaling notebook as well as the "santa's list" paper.  you get 5 of each design in the notebook and I love the whole collection (this I KNOW we have
