Black Bear Layout

Hi all,

Today I have a layout to share. This is a layout of the Blabk Bear that I saw while I was on vacation last month.I'm not really sure if you can see the bear, because the picture of the layout is not very good.While I was on vacation I went to a scrapbook store that sold all kinds of themed things for camping and other outdoors things. So I bought the little paw prints, the trees, the bear, the photo frame, and the journaling block . The journaling block was a weird material, so I could not write on it. So I used word stickers instead.

I almost forgot, but you should really check out Ali Edwards Blog. She is having a challenge that is called Weekend Creative: Documenting a Week in Your Life. It sounds really cool. For more details go to Ali's Blog.

Halloween Joy Fold Card

Hi,

It has been a few days since I posted a new card so here is a Halloween Joy Fold Card. I made this card using pp from JoAnn's Fabrics and Stamps from JoAnn's Fabrics. This is actually the first time I have ever used cardstock that is dark purple. Believe it ir not I actually like it and I'm not much of a purple person. I also used black ink around the "BOO" image to make it show up more.

If possible please keep me in your prayers. I was told this past week when I went to the hosptial that I have a heart murmur. I don't know how seriuos it is yet, but I will know after they do the tests this week.

Happy Holidays Card

Today I have a Christmas card to share with you all. I made this card for a challenge at AMR. For this card I used DCWV cardstock and DCWV pattern paper. The chipboard ornament is Basic Grey and I covered it with DCWV pattern paper. I actually bought the chipboard ornament at Big Lots in a pack of self adhesive Christmas chipboard by Basic Grey. I am so proud of myself because I have made 7 Christmas cards so far. Hey, that's a start right. :)

Happy Halloween Card

Today I have another Halloween card to share. I made this card using the Tayloed Expressions Cupcake Challenge 33. To make this card I used some of my new stamps and paper that I bought at JoAnn's last week. I have 5 more Christmas cards that I will try to post during the week if I get time.

I am really enjoying the weather here. It has finally gotten down to the 70's. The leaves are also starting to change. I am loving it so much.

Have a great weekend,

Happy Hauntings!

Today I have another card to share with everyone. This one is also for Halloween. Halloween is such a fun holiday, I love going to places like Wal-Mart and looking through all of the Halloween decorations and Halloween candy. The only thing is I don't really like Halloween candy. The only kind of Halloween candy I will eat is the Reese's Pumpkins. :)

I made this card using the Taylored Expressions Cupcake Challenge 32. I could not wait to get home today so I could play with my new goodies that I got at JoAnn's. While I was at JoAnn's today I got this new paper stack that was JoAnn's name brand and I also got a new set of stamps for Halloween. The set of stamps came with an acrylic block, ink pad, and the stamps. It was only 9.99. I hope everyone is enjoying September so far. We had such a nice day today. It was only 71 degrees. Don't forget to go over to the AMR Crop.

Trick Or Treat

Hi,

Today I have a new card to share. This one I made for Halloween using the Taylored Expressions Cupcake Challenge 31. I thought that I would get a kind of early start on my Halloween Cards. The pattern paper is Karen Foster Designs and the cardstock is DCWV. I got the pumpkin stamp and ribbon from Hobby Lobby. The "trick or treat" stamp one of the $1 studio g stamps. I also used black ink to ink the edges of the pp.

If at all possible please keep my family in your prayers. My great-grandmother is in the hospital and we don't know if she is going to live much longer.

Have a great weekend,

~Amber~
