Summer Halloween Blog Hop!

Hi Everyone! Welcome to the Summer Halloween blog hop! If you've come from Tricia's blog then you are in the right place. If you would like to start at the beginning click here

I love Halloween. It's my favorite holiday to create items for. I decided to create some little treats that can be given away to co-workers/friends/kids.. Inside these are a mini bag of M&M's. I cut the pumpkin out using spellbinders and a martha stewart branch punch for the leaf. The face is from Peachy Keen and the sentiment is from Pink by Design. 


Here are a couple variations I made using different patten papers :) 


I hope you enjoyed my Halloween project! Here is the line up for the hop in case you get lost. Your next stop is Dawn!!

Car Birthday Card

Hi Everyone! I have a new technique that I've recently discovered and LOVE so I decided to share with you all :) 

For this card I used Pink by Design "Birthday Birthday" stamp set for the sentiment and "Ahooga" for the car stamp. Maybe this technique will be old to you but it's new to me! I've recently discovered colorless stamping! This is where you stamp on a piece of subtle patterned paper. I also LOVE to ink so I inked in a light brown around the car and around "Happy Birthday". 


Thanks for checking out my post today! I can't wait to see your colorless stamping projects!! :)

This sympathy card I made for their Mystery Monday challenge. The sentiment is from Pink by Design "scripted year" and this is Angel Anya.


This next card I made for the favorite color challenge.. my current favorite color is Purple but i'm sure by next week it will change again :)
