Criss Cross Halloween Cards


Hi,


I have a new Halloween Criss Cross card to share with you today. I only made two though. One was for my grandparents and the other was for my parents. I had so much fun working on these. I will never forget last Christmas when I first started making the Criss Cross Card. I messed up do many times, but now I have no problem. I was messing up because I would cut the sides wrong. It made me so mad. I wasted so much good cardstock last year because of my mess ups.
I am so happy that Halloween is almost over. I know I sound crazy, but I love decorating for Christmas and working on all of my projects. It is actually trying to snow right now. You can see a few snowflakes every once in a while. It makes me so happy. It is only supposed to be 41 degrees tomorrow. Yeah!!!

Just One of Those Special Days

Today was one of those special days for me. It all began when I got up this morning and it was only 35 degrees outside. (yes I love it when it is cold) Then I went shopping today. I had so much fun. While I was shopping I bought the new DCWV Glitter Christmas Stack, 6 spools of Christmas ribbon, some Martha Stewart Glue (I thought I would try it for 2.98), some of my regular adhesive that I use, and the new November/December issue of Paper Crafts Magazine.
I also enjoyed looking through all of Christmas stuff at Wal-Mart. Believe it or not I began some of my Christmas Shopping today. Yes, I know for some people this is a late start, but for me it is a very early start. Quess what else, I have already begun watching Christmas movies. The other night I was making Halloween treat boxes and watching a Christmas movie.
Tonight I plan on making some Halloween cupcakes for my Sunday School Class. I will try to post some pictures of my Treat boxes and cupcakes tomorrow sometime.

Have a Great Saturday Evening,

New Card and ATC






Today I have two new things to share with you. One is a card and one is a Halloween ATC (Artist Trading Card). I made the card about a week ago, but I have not had a chance to upload it. For this card I used DCWV pp and DCWV cardstock. The stamps "HI" is by Heidi Swapp and the flower stamps are Scrappy Cat. I'm not really sure about the ribbon, flower, and brad. I recieved the ribbon from one of the ladies at AMR for a RAK. (Nicole) Now on to the Halloween ATC. I made the Halloween ATC earlier today. This ATC will also be going to one of the ladies at AMR, but I will name any names. I want it to be a surprise for that person. These are also the stamps that I bought at JoAnn's. I have been using those a lot. They are my favorite Halloween stamps that I have. I used yellow Stickles for the eyes of the ghosts.


Oh! I almost forgot. Tomorrow is World Card Making Day. I hope you have fun making cards. Even if you are like me and you are going to stay home and work on your Holiday Cards.
