Batty over Halloween

 I have another Halloween card creation for you today using

little glitter foam bats my Sister gave me. 
Isn't he just the cutest little thing?

The Haunting Season Haunted House

Yesterday I released a new kit called

The Haunting Season.
(Please click the link above to be taken to the kit preview page.)

In this kit I created 5 cards in the style of PL.

In other words 3" by 4".

There are so many of these PL card creations on the net and I am

positive if you are like myself you own your fair share.

I came up with a different use for this style of card using them for layered Card Fronts.

So not only can you use them in your Project Life layouts (aka PL) they make

wonderful card creations.

My creation today showcases the haunted house 3" by 4" card...

 Here is the preview of the PL style cards...

You can purchase this card set from the link below...

Other product used:  Papertrey ink ribbon, bling and cardstock, foam glitter stars and printer.

Monster Girls Thank You!

 I have been trying to catch up on Thank You cards for the past few weeks.

This week J and I worked hard on her notes.

She wanted Monster  High however, I had this Monster Girls digital SB kit and went went with that.

I designed the card front, cut out the girl on the silhouette and some ribbon.  J constructed them all on her own.

Great teamwork don't you think;)

Good thing we have most of them done as we leave for the Mayo Clinic in

Rochester MN in the morning.

They are ranked #1 in the US for the help J needs.

I am hopeful that we are going to the right place that can help her for the long term not just

patch her up and send her home to get sick again.

Anywho, here is our creation...

 

Here is the kit preview...

A Happy Hello

A happy Hello Indeed;)  It has been over a month and I have not touched anything

creative in my home.  Between a late spring ice storm, Graduation and little j getting

ill, life has kept me very busy.

However, yesterday was my birthday and I spent it doing things I totally enjoy

reading and card making.

I picked up some cute images from Sherri Baldy turned on my Mac and enjoyed my special day.

Here is one of my creations....

Don't you just love Sherri Baldy Stamps?

They are so dang CUTE!

Below is my digitally colored image created in PSE10.

This creation used "Just About Me" from Sara Schmutz.

I found the download over at Design House Digital...

 They are fun to do however, they require
