Boo to U!


Today I made some very much needed important crafting time for myself. With school, the kids, the house and the hubs I can't seem to get to my craft table. It also doesn't help that I am obsessed with the computer. As I blog hop everyday, I have been getting inspired. Today instead of cardmaking or scrapping I thought it would be fun to make a decoration for my home for Halloween. I don't have anything handmade and this was fun to make. I used the Cricut for all the shapes and letters, even the little spider. I glitzed it up with stickles (glitter glue), added some pumpkin brads to the B, ric rak to the 1st O and a die cut spider to the 2nd O. In a sticker stash that I have I found a cat and ghost sticker from Jolee's that just fit perfect. It was so nice to be able to make something. So the pic is horrible. I am not the best photographer and I hate my camera. Now back to reality for me. Study, cook, sleep.

Feel yourself up!




Hey everyone!! While I have not been effected personally by breast cancer I still feel Breast Cancer Awareness is very important. So ladies, check the your breasts at least once a month, usually at the start of your menstration. If you should feel any abnormalities go get checked out by your doctor. Early detection is the key for a cure. This month you will see plenty of organizations asking for donations to for breast cancer research, please if you can give what you can.

Will I make it in on time?



I not sure if I will make it in on time for last week's Friday's Sketchers. I really liked the sketch so I wanted to do it. Well, even if I don't make it at least I made a card right? I am hoping to get started on Christmas cards. I ran into the problem of not having enough last year. I just didn't have the time with school. This year I have a little bit more time. I don't want to wait until November to make them though. I got this stamp years ago. He is so cute. He stamps well too. My only problem is that I am bad with bic markers and copics and make the ink bleed. I'm not sure what ink I am supposed to be using. I'll have to investigate. My hopes is to one day be able to have more copics and know how to use them properly. Guess that is going to have to go on the Christmas list!

Will I ever find my MOJO?

Okay, so today I had some time for cardmaking. I really feel that when I go down in my basement to make cards that I totally lost my mojo for making cards. :( I hope to be able get it back within the next few weeks due to the fact that my son is having his Halloween Party and I just love to decorate for it.


For this weeks Stampingbella Sketch I chose to do a Halloween themed card. I love my little Johnny Depster stamp and find myself using him more then others. The pic is so bad. I hate my camera. I don't really know if it is the camera or if it is me using the camera? I did notice today that I use to much Stickles and need to stop being lazy and start matting more. Embellishments scare me for some reason. I think that they will make everything look tacky. I have to get over that fear.
