Halloween gift for teachers

These are test tubes for candy. Tic tacs or Nerds fit in these nicely.

Hello Kitty on the Cricut

This one is for a friend's daughter who is cheering this fall. The other is a get well card.

Halloween refrigerator frames

So it has been way too long since I last posted. Busy with school, but I'm doing well after the first tests so I can have some fun now. This is what I plan to make and give to my new neighbors this Halloween. It is a frame for the refrigerator. They can use it to display a favorite Halloween picture. I'll tell them what it is in the card and I'll attach magnet strips to the back so it can go up easily. I need to get some supplies! I just used a random picture, but you get the idea.

D is for Dog!

I love this set! I used So Saffron, Chocolate Chip, Tempting Turquoise, Rose Red, and Certainly Celery card stock and inks. The designer series paper is retired. I love using my paper scraps! I also used my punches. Couldn't live without 'em. Unfortunately, my mother-in-law just lost her dog, Daisy. She was 17 years old which is amazing, but I know she will be missed. I hope she likes her card. This dog could also be used to say, "Happy Birthday, Thinking of You", well... anything really because dogs make people happy!

Simple Address Labels

Here are some really simple address labels you can make. I printed sheets of the same label in MS Word and then stamped an image next to it.

Choo Choo

Here's a card with the new Choo Choo stamp set and coordinating Stampin' Around wheel. I used very vanilla, more mustard, garden green, night of navy, bravo burgundy and really rust card stock and inks. I need to pre-make some birthday cards for Max's friends with this set. I'll share them when I do.

Congratulations card for a friend's wedding

I made this for my college roomate today. I made another one for a friend who got married the same day as Ben and I. Our ninth anniversary is this month on the 19th. Nine years! I used Bashful blue card stock and close to cocoa designer series papers, close to cocoa and bashful blue inks and close to cocoa taffeta ribbon. I just ordered a whole pack of bashful blue and so saffron card stock. I make so many cards with them! The stamp sets are Congrats (SAB 2009) and of course, Circle Circus. (Don't worry, I've ordered a new stamp set. Ha ha.) I also used my favorite technique - punches! I used the scallop circle, the scallop edge, and various circle punches. I'll share the quote I put on the inside too. It is appropriate for the occasion.

"I used to believe that marriage would diminish me, reduce my options. That you had to be someone less to live with someone else when, of course, you have to be someone more." Candace Bergen
