All My Friends Are Zombies!

Happy Wednesday (hump day) and I love Wednesdays, because they mean Stampotique Originals Designers challenge. It is my week to host this weeks challenge, and my challenge is ghouls and goblins. I love Halloween and and spooky things, so any chance I get to get creatively spooky, I will. My page was inspired by a page I saw on pinterest, and I also wanted to use Zombies, as The Walking Dead is one of my favorite shows, so I combined Halloween and zombies. It has been a while since I made a journal page and boy I forgot how much I love making journal pages. I hope you will join us for this weeks challenge. I can't wait to see what you come up with.

Going Grey With Scrap-Creations Challenge: Halloween prize challenge

Happy Tuesday! I hope you have a fantastic weekend! It is starting to get chilly here in New Hampshire. I woke up this morning to a whopping 40 degrees....Burrr...the trees have gone from beautiful shades or red, orange, yellow to bare, and stalk looking, which only means one thing......WINTER is coming...UGH!!! I am not a winter kind of girl, and while I do enjoy the very first snowfall of the year, that is wear it ends. I hate the cold, and I am already so over six plus feet of snow on the ground at all times. For now, I am going to continue taking in what is left of the trees....

      This week we have a super fun challenge for you....This week we want to see your Halloween projects. I made Frankenstein card which was inspired by this card I saw on pinterest.   I can't wait to see what you all create for this weeks challenge, which I have decided to give away a Halloween themed goody bag to one of our lucky players.

Cheers!

Happy Thursday! I hope you are having a great week. I for one, am happy to be back on my feet. My family and are are finally back on our feet after almost five days of a stomach bug...UGH! The only thing worse than seeing your kids sick, is trying to take care of your sick kids when you are just as sick...Thankfully, the stomach bug seems to have passed and the kids are back at school and I am back to work....
I did manage to color a bit and create a card for this weeks Stampotique Designers challenge hosted by: Carol Fox and here is what Carol has to say about this weeks challenge:

"I love strong colours that really pop on the page, so I ask you this week to feature Black, Pink and Purple on your make for the challenge this week."

I too love the colors that Carol chose, and I made a very simple card using Cheers for this weeks challenge. I hope you will come play with us this week. :)

Stampotique Book Text Challenge

Happy Hump Day!!!! I love Wednesdays, it's the middle of the week, I have Thursdays off, and it means the weekend is approaching. It also means that it is Stampotique Originals Designer challenge day, and our host for this week is Corrie and here is what she has to say:

Hello everybody and happy Wednesday to you all!

"Today it is my turn to host the Challenge and I would like you to use book text. This is such a versatile material and when I get a bit stuck, I regularly reach for an old book to use the pages. I think everybody has an old book or magazine lying around to use. I can't wait to see what you come up with, but most of all have fun creating !!!

Corrie x"

This was a super fun challenge for me to create, as I love text paper. It is fun to use and can be used on anything. I used the Happy Lion stamp, which was in Stampotiques new release in September. Isn't he adorable???? Head on over to the designers challenge blog and check out what the rest of the team did. Have a great Hump day!

Going Grey With ScrapCreations Challenge: Pop It Up!

Happy Tuesday! I can't believe it's October already, seems as though the weeks are flying by, and here we are in October, one of the most beautiful months of the year, here in New Hampshire. Fall in New England is like no where else, the trees are stunning.... The pic above is from a hike my husband and I just did at Mt. Major in Alton Bay New Hampshire. The view at the top was amazing, completely worth the 3 days of pain after...LOL...

I haven't had a whole lot of time to stamp lately, as I am currently taking 3 classes this semester and time is limited, but I think it is important for me to take time to do what I love, which is getting inky!!! I am so thankful to have two groups that force me to create...One of the reason I am creating this week, is this weeks Pop It Up Challenge, and because I also would like to play in last weeks Stampotique Originals Masculine Challenge hosted by Kim, I was able to do both with this card.

I used Stampotiques Thinking of you and while it is hard to see, I popped up the dog and the lamp shade. I used the masculine DP to cover Kim's fabulous challenge. Hope on over and check out the amazing work by the DT!

Are you ready to see last weeks Fall challenge TOP 3??? Drumroll....
