Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween everyone!!  Here's an awesome stamp from Tickled Pink, though this artist now makes stamps for CC Designs.  I just love her images.  This witch is too cute!  I added some shimmery spiderweb paper and framed a tiny spider on a web!  That gorgeous stitched ribbon comes from Istanbul.

I hope you all have fun plans for Halloween!  I bought a bag of candy to hand out to the kids, we usually get 30-40 or so here.  I may go up by the church where they are having "Trunk or Treat" meaning people are setting up their cars all decorated and everyone just goes up to each person's car to trick or treat. That should be a load of fun to the kids.

Would you like a drink?

Here's an awesome stamp from Tickled Pink Lil Lolita, I just love this artist's images, they are now sold over at CC Designs.  I added it with some fun Skull paper and a few candy embellishments.  She's just awesome fun for Halloween. I have to say, Hmmm, is that just red wine?  I don't drink wine, so I guess I better pass.

Down in the Dumps...

Love the expression in this girl, doesn't she just show that typical teenage angst?  I colored her up in warm greys with red roses.  Love that adorable skull hairpiece.  She's from Tickled Pink, but I think CC Designs now sells these stamps exclusively. At any rate, she's a fun image for Halloween or any time.

Happy Haunting

Happy Haunting!  I don't know if this beautiful girl will be haunting much. This stamp is from Tickled Pink.  They make a number of great Halloween themed stamps.  That punch is a recent one that I picked up.  I had a great time at the scrapbook convention last week.  I will be showing you some new die cuts now.  The DH gave me some $$ and I got some wonderful new dies, mostly Spellbinders, but I also splurged on some amazingly detailed Cheery Lynn cutters too.

Next week will bring some treats as I just became a Design team member for Scrapalicious.  I got my first package from them yesterday.  WOO HOO.  Wait until you see their goodies.  Best Wishes for a good week.  Hugs

Tickled Pink

I love this stamp from Tickled Pink.  Any dress with a couple skulls and some thigh high striped socks...how cute is that? What I don't know is, do I love these images because they dress like me, or have I just started to dress like them?  Hmmm, thoughts to ponder.  Now, you know you must have a good life when you have time to think about something THAT silly!

Seriously though, I don't spend much time thinking about such silly things, but I do get a pleasure out of making a cute little card like this and smiling.  I hope this card has made you smile today. Oh yeah, something important today--Happy Birthday Linda!!

Sing me a song...

I had a couple comments yesterday about the card I made and I had colored her eyes to match the color of her outfit. Purple or Violet being a very unusual eye color. I must say I can't think of anyone I know or have every met with that eye color. My husband of course had pointed out to me that Elisabeth Taylor was famous for that eye color, but I honestly can't say that I ever saw her though and noticed that. I do think violet eyes look good there and in this card here, so I do often choose to use that color.
