Hello Boo! FMS660

 

Ghosts and Bats and Spiders - what more do you need for a Halloween?!? Sneaking in one final Halloween card as we approach the big day! Emma and Will are coming tomorrow to hand out candy to our expected crowd of trick or treaters - always a fun evening!

Emma's class had costume day at school this past week.  She and three of her friends dressed up as The Golden Girls.  Can you guess which Golden Girl she was?

Wishing you entertaining visitors this Halloween!

Enjoy Judy's wide open sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches! Hope you play along!

A Flurry of Wishes....FMS659

 

My Halloween cards are in the mail so Christmas card making is in full swing.  I usually start with designer paper when I have a lot of cards to make. I use the colors and images as inspiration. I was a bit unsure about green snowflakes but I took my cue from the DSP and thought "what the heck" - Will's favorite saying these days!

Speaking of Will we had a Halloween craft day here this week  After painting ghost leaves and shrinky dinks Will and Emma decided to make themselves into ghosts using old sheets. Always entertaining around here!

Amy has a fun sketch for us this week at Freshly Made Sketches! Scatter whatever you like across your card!

Sunflowers - #TTTC258

 

My cousin hosted a mortgage burning party recently - a fun event for a big moment!  Sunflowers are in bloom during early fall days so I decided to stencil some on a celebratory card for her.  The card was perfect with the big bouquet of sunflowers that I brought for her!  

I also stamped some small sunflowers from a Lawn Fawn set in the front corner of the envelope and colored them with copics to coordinate with my card. I need to decorate my envelopes more often!

I went down the right side of the grid this week at Tic Tac Toe. Hope you play along!

Let It Snow But Not Just Yet....FMS657

 

My ice skating days are over but I do have fond memories of spending many winter afternoons skating on a local rink.  We aren't quite ready for snow and ice here yet as we are enjoying an amazingly beautiful fall!  Lots of soccer games!

                                                

I made a tag following Karren's sketch but if you have to change it up a bit she won't mind at all! We love to see your interpretations at Freshly Made Sketches!
