More Halloween Spooks

Oh how I LOVE Halloween!!! I have been making at least 2 cards everyday...I'm so blessed to have this time in my craft room so soon after hubby's surgery. He's been so busy watching games on tv and all the fear fest movies! So he gives me a little break!

I wanted to share with you two cards I made today. The first one I used the CUTEST little bat from DZ Doodles called Batty Characters that is in the store right now for purchase! I cut out the spider web border with my cricut isn't it so cute? I got the SVG file from Scrapcation Getaway >>> HERE! She has LOTS of cool free SVG's go on and check her out!


The second card I made was inspired from a card on Jeanette Lynton's blog >>> HERE! I just thought it was to cute and I was dying to use the spooky tree SVG cricut cut out that I got from My Cricut Scrapbooking blog >>> HERE!

HOOTERS!!!

Hello! I didn't get a chance to get my DZ Doodles challenge card today (maybe tomorrow) but, I did want to come on really quick before dinner and post some cards I made before hubby's surgery. My bestest friend Mary Jane gave me the NEW adorable & cute 2 step owl punch from Stampin Up and I just had to fit sometime in before surgery to use it! The little owl is just TOO DARN CUTE!!! I made 3 cards!

The first one was hubby's get well card, the pink one was for Mary Jane as a little gifty and the 3rd was the first get well I made for hubby but then looked to much like 4th of July haha!

Halloween!

I can't believe Halloween is just around the corner...it's one of my favorite holiday's of them all! I got a little time in between playing a nurse today to make a card. I used 3 different images from DZ Doodles. Diane (owner of DZ Doodles) has been drawing her little fingers away and making the cutest digital images! Go on over to the store >>> CLICK HERE and check them out! The 3 images that I used are Haunted House, Rickety Fence, and Silly Spider.

Before I go on to posting my card...there is a challenge going on right now at DZ Doodles SNR group and PCP along with a Halloween freebie..which I will be using tomorrow to make a card to share with you all..so stay tuned!

PS: Hubby's surgery went well and he's recovering! It will be about 6 months to a year for a full recovery but he's on the right track so far! We are just glad it's done and no more worrying. Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers.

OH WOWZERS!

I can't believe that this is my first post since July 1st! How time gets away from us. So many things have happened all summer long in my life..some good and some bad. But I'm hoping things stay going good...so everyone keep me and my family in your thoughts and prayers! My hubby will be getting a total elbow replacement in less then 2 weeks so I'm hoping this will be the last of my down time so I can be back here and in my craft room making cards and scrapbooking again! I have made a few in between this all but nothing like normal for me! So after the 15th and time to get home from the hospital and get him settled in I'll BE BACK to attack (keeping my fingers crossed).

I wanted to come on and share a card I was able to squeeze in my crazy life this last week with you all...the image is a NEW and a FREEBIE NOW from DZ Doodles called Pumpkin Picking Scarecrow...isn't he just the CUTIEST! I love him!!! For a limited time you can get him for FREE over at Paper Craft Planet and/or SNR Card Universe. And while your at either one please join the challenge this week you could win more free images from DZ Doodles!

and that's not it with the freebies!!! There is MORE...visit DZ Doodles main site....HERE and Diane has lots of fun information for you on different ways to make Halloween goodies and she has made these fantastic mechanical cuties for us to make and play with and they are FREE! But don't wait to long to go on over and grab them because they will only be free for a limited time after that you will have to purchase them from the DZ Doodles store! I HOPE I can make sometime to play with the mechanical cuties this week for my Halloween decor...if I do I'll be posting to share them with you.

Have a BEAUTIFUL day and hope to be posting again VERY soon! Hugs!

YAY!

I'm here and alive...WOW! What a summer it's been busy but very good of course! I can't believe it's been this long since my last post. I kind of fell into a big dark summer hole haha! I just haven't been in the mood to create lately sad..but true! I think it just has something to do with the summer and all the things there is to do and the heat of course doesn't help!

So I got 2 cards to share today...first all my DZ Doodles card I made for the challenge at DZ Doodles Paper Craft Planet. I used the free image that they are giving away with this challenge. She is just adorable. Go on over and play along with us the deadline to enter is Friday, July 9th. You could get a chance to win a free image from the DZ Doodles store just for playing so come on join the summer fun!


The next card I have to share for you is a card I made for a dear friend of the family who's father passed away this last week. Please keep her and her family in your thoughts and prayers. I used prima flowers with my spellbinder crosses.
