Bewitched

Hello everyone,
  Welome back for card #5 of my Halloween card series. This is going to be the last card for a few days. Weekends are super busy around here and we are hardly home, so hopefully I will be back Monday with another..until then Enjoy! Also..let me know what ya think of my card photography skills..I think they are improving slowly,but any tips would be greatly appreciated. =)
  For this card I paper pieced and colored (with prismas) the Sweet November Hilda & Luna stamp. The sentiment is from the Amy R Ghostly Greetings set that Ive been using a ton for this series. You can watch the short and sweet video tutorial HERE Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all have a great weekend!

Frankenstien Love!

Good Eevening!
  Im back today with card # 4 of my Halloween card series..and ya know what that means?? I am gonna beat last years' score woo hoo! Technically it means that Im tied with last year,but Ive got a few more ideas up my sleeve and a few more images that I'm dying (hehe) to use..so in my mind,Ive got it beat. =)
  On a side note..Ive been playing around with my camera so I can take better photos of my cards, so hopefully today's card is better,and they will continue to get better as I go! Enjoy! Watch the video tutorial HERE

Ghostly Greetings!

Hi all,
  Im back with card #3 in my 2012 Halloween Card Series. I just got the Sweet November "Boo's Fun" set the other day and couldn't wait to ink up these little ghosties. This little guy definately found the perfect pumpkin,but not sure if it was worth it..he looks a little spooked to be out so late in the woods,and with all those bats lurking in the trees, I don't blame him! You can watch me put this card together HERE. Thanks for stopping by,I will talk to ya soon! =)

A little Favor...

Hey guys,
  Today I am going a little off the subject of card-making/crafting to ask a favor. Some of you may know that as a stay at home mom I make extra money by selling Scentsy. I have been a Scentsy consultant for 3+ years now and these last few months have been really hectic with relocating and selling our house and well not knowing anyone here..my Scentsy got put on the back burner and I didn't even realize that I was coming up on 3 months without selling anything..so this means my days as a Scentsy consultant will come to an end unless I make $150 in orders by the end of the month and umm..it's the 17th!!
   I realize that with kids starting school and the holidays coming up it is a tough time to buy extras,but every little bit helps..and you get the benefit of delicious smelling products from Scentsy to make your house smell warm and inviting,we also have pur Hand Soaps/sanitizers (they make excellent teacher gifts) and our Scentsy Layers products are great gifts to have on hand for those times you need a quick gift or want to pamper yourself, we even have Scentsy Buddies for the kids' stocking stuffers! All Im asking is that you stop by my website and take a look around, if you feel compelled to buy something then awesome,and if not that's ok too..I really don't want to lose this position,and would appreciate any help I can get, Im completely desperate at this point.
 So here is the link to my website..go check it out whether you already know and love Scentsy or this is the first you've heard of it..they really are amazing produts and make a huge difference in making your house a home and always smelling yummy for those unexpeccted guests..I will warn you hubby/son may think you are baking cookies and be a bit disappointed to find out it's just Scentsy but hey..what ccan ya do haha. Also..a quick tip.."Dominica" is THE perfect smell for Halloween if you happen to be having a party..and "Festival of Trees" is my hubby's favorite for Christmas/Winter. =) Thanks in advance and I'll be back soon with another Halloween card. Have a wonderful day!! =) CLICK HERE!

The Return of Jojo the werewolf!

Hi everyone,
  Im back with card #2 in my Halloween card series. Ive really been trying to use up papers in my stash for this series and so far so good..I used the Basic grey Eerie line,and I know this pad has sat untouched for at least 2 years..tsk tsk. I also pulled my all time favorite Halloween stamp "Jojo the werewolf" from Sweet November stamps,I dont know what it is about him but eeeek Im in love!! haha. The sentiment is from Amy R's "Ghostly Greetings" set.You can watch how I put this card together HERE.
 I know this is a quick post but Im off to the post office to see if my other new Halloween stamps have arrived so I can get busy on some more vids for you guys.. fingers crossed!! =) talk at ya later.

Halloween Card Series #1

Hi all,
   Ive really been in the Halloween spirit lately -get it, "spirit" haha- anywho Ive been getting things ready for my annual Halloween Party and all that creativity has just spilled out into my card making so I thought it would be the perfect time to start my 2012 Halloween Card Series. I gotta tell ya I still feel pretty lame about that measly 4 card series last year lol..if you could even consider that a series. So let's just forget about that and get on with this year's cards shall we =)
 
 For my first card I picked this absolutely adorable image called "Devilish Lucy" by CC Designs..she is certainly the cutest little devil Ive ever seen. I also used some of the new dies from CC Designs, the pumpkins (not mushrooms DH!) and the bats are both from them. The papers are a  MME release from last year called Mischievous. You can watch how I put this little card together HERE
 I hope you enjoyed and hopefully I can get a few more cards made this next week!
  Toodles. =)
