IAR HALLOWEEN ALTERED BOX

HI!!! Can hardly believe Halloween is almost here...where did time go? gosh! This is the first year I don't do a mini album! but I did recycle this cookie box, its gonna be a great box for Kat.  Im gonna fill it with assorted chocolates!! I used G45 paper, the "Happy Hauntings" cricut cartridge for the bat frame, Martha Stewart paper round the page spider punch and I am ROSES! This was a quick, fun, stress free project.  I hope you like it, and if you like the roses I used visit...www.iamroses.com.  Here, take a look, what do you think??
This is the box I used...These cookies were super yummy!!

I am so Blessed!!!

Hello everyone! I do not know where to start to THANK all of you, my friends, my followers, who have left me such kind words and kept us in your prayers.  The amount of emails I recieved during the few weeks I was feeling so down was totally a Blessing!! I read each and everyone and tried to answer everyone...if by chance I missed you, please don't be hurt or think I don't care. I have been so busy and overwhelmed lately, but I do CARE and I do appreciate everyone and each of you!!!
THANKS!!!  
Now for a follow up...Brandi is doing GREAT!  The hospital stay really did it's job. As much as i hated her being there, she was in true need of all the antibiotics they pumped into her lil body.  She is my baby...and I say that with a grin because she will turn 21 in Oct!!! But seeing her on that bed, with a pic line all i could see what my sweet baby girl...ya know?  But she is good and living and enjoying life! and if she is happy, I'm happy.  We still continue to pray everyday for a cure for CF, but for now, I take what God will give me! So please don't drop her from your prayers, her and all the children suffering from this horrible horrible disease!:(
Krystal...well she is crocheting! like a mad women...if you haven't checked out her blog, do so, she is making beanies! lol too cute and perfect for the coming winter season...she is feeling better also. She is still sore from the accident and now under the care of a chiropractor trying to get her back/neck pain under control.  But over all she is good!
I...well...I am STILL trying to adjust to my new schedule at work! OMG, i tell you that morning sun just about burns my skin off! lol ya know, me being a night owl an all!  But I promise I'llbe back folding paper soon! LOVE YOU ALL!!!
THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT!!!
