Actually, it is must husband who loves to decorate the house and he always does a fabulous job (he is pretty much 36 going on 16 when it comes to this). We run the neighborhood halloween party, and we just love everything about it.

Whachadoin Wednesday Challenge:Inspiration

Happy Wednesday!!! Wow, it's already the middle of the week. For all of you that celebrate Labor day, did you have a great weekend? I worked both Sat, Sunday, but Monday we took the kids to a local fair. It was a sure sign that fall is approaching. We had a nice time. There was lots of animals, some horse shows, and the kids had a great time playing on the tractors, and the weather was fabulous. What did you do.

Today's card is made for SU INK & MORE's Whachadoin Wednesday Challenge. Today's challenge is a inspiration challenge (when I am able to get the photo I will post here). My thought on the photo was to go toward the color scheme. I decided to use SU INK's You're a Hoot stamps set. I have a thing going on with the owls lately. They are just so darn cute. I used This weeks Mojo Monday sketch, and I have to admit, I love the sketch. it could be easily used so many times.
So, wanna come play with us? We love new players. Head on over to the blog to get the inspiration photo, and then create away. I look forward to seeing your project. Have a wonderful day and thanks for stoping by today. Happy Creating!!!





SUPPLIES:
Stamps: You're a hoot by SU INK & More

Inky Impressions Challenge: Happy Birthday



Wow, it's Friday already. This week has Flown bye. So, Happy Friday all. What a week it has been. My kids started school on Tuesday, and I started the semester on Wednesday. I thought when the kids went to school I would have so much more time, but my time still seems to be limited. How does that happen?

Anyways, Today's card is made for this weeks Inky Impressions challenge. Since September is Nicole's (inky's mama & owner), we are celebrating her all month (Happy Early Birthday Nicole). This weeks challenge is to make a Birthday themed card.

I have had this piece of scrap DP hanging around forever and I have been dying to use it (as I love it), so I decided whatever stamp I was going to use, it was going to go with this paper. I was determined to finally use this DP. SO I grabbed my Inky Impressions "Lili has a secret" stamp and worked away. I used this weeks Mojo Monday sketch and made it all work. I have to admit, my coloring isn;t the best here. I don;t love her res top, but I wanted the whole thing to match. I wish I had paper pieced the shirt, but it is what it is.


So, needing to make a Birthday card? Why not play along with the DT over at Inky Impressions. We would love for you to play with us. The more the Merrier.

Well, I am off to try and get some things done. The kids are off today. I hope you all have a wonderful Holiday weekend and thanks for stopping by today. It is really appreciated. Sometimes we get into a creative funk, but is always uplifting when you read such wonderful comments. So again, thank you!!!!!

One more thing before I go, it has been awhile since I have posted some blog candy, so stay tuned tomorrow for some "Booful" blog candy", maybe even a MS punch or something! Have a great weekend!

SUPPLIES:
Stamps: Inky Impressions (Lili), Sentiment (SU)
Paper:? from my stash
Ink: Memento black, Copics, ans SU taken with teal
Misc: Prima Flowers, gems,ribbon, Amuse red gems

Whachadoin Wednesday with SU INK & More


Good Morning. Happy Wednesday. We are half way through the week. It is he kids 2nd day of school and My 1st day back to school for the semester. I am hoping that my classes will be enriching and interesting.

Today's challenge over at SU INK is "Fall" theme. I live in New England where Fall is gorgeous. This morning it is 50 degrees and will warm up as the week goes. This is a sure sign that Fall is on it's way (my favorite season).

For my card today, I used One of the trees from the Friendly Forest collection from SU INK'S New INKIES stamps. I used some Basic Grey paper and some buttons, and this is what I ended up with. Do you feel the fall crisp air? (hehehehe).

So, do you like to make Fall themed cards? Did I inspire you (I hope)? Well, what are you waiting for? Head on over to your craft spot make a Fall Themed card and link it up over at SU INK & MORE to play with us this week. I bet you could combine 2 challenges in one card.

So, today has to be short but sweet. I have a class at 10:00am and then I am hoping to do some laundry and make some cards. So, Have a GREAT day and Happy Creating!

SUPPLIES:
Stamps: Su Ink & More (Tree), CTMH (sentiment)
Paper: Basic Grey DP, SU cardstock
INK: Copics, Memento Black
