Thanks/Blessings Link Up Love Party at Getting Cricky!!

Well it's that time of the month again when we get to Link Up some Love!!  This week over at Getting Cricky we were asked to create something showing Thanks or Blessings. 

Here's what I came up with!!

I cut the pumpkins from the Freshly Picked Cricut cart at 3 1/4 and 3", used Paper Layers by Megan Elizabeth and the sentiment is from the Fall-o-Ween stamp set by K. Andrew Designs.

"Link Up Love Party" with K. Andreww, Anything Halloween

Happy Tuesday all!!  It's time to "Link up some Love" again.  This weeks theme is Anything Halloween being that Halloween is still about 2 weeks away!!  So I decided to make treat bags for my little guy's pre-school class.  I made the candy man (CLICK HERE) that Kristal did a tutorial on a few weeks ago along with a pencil and little pad, some chocolates, a blower and a Halloween straw!  I think that they came out great, what do you think??

I only had to make 8 so I decided to use various Halloween papers as the toppers.  I punched the one edge with the Martha Stewart "Drippy Goo" punch.  I used a Sizzix die to cut the Ghost, two tag punchesn in two different sizes for the tag.  I used Candi's and a brag to attach to the tag over the ribbon that I added and of course I stamped the "BOO too you!!" using my "Fall-o-ween" stamp set from K. Andrew Designs!

I would love to hear about the last minute projects you are working on for Halloween!! 

Don't forget to "Link up the Love" over at Getting Cricky!  

 Have a great day and Happy Craftin!

"Love Link Up" Blog Party

So I know I promised a video on Sunday but it took me a little while to edit and upload it!  It is now ready to go!!  The video is a step by step of the Easter card that I made for my family this year.  Sorry if it's hard to see some parts but I kept forgetting to make sure the card was in the eye of the camera!!  Promise that I will get better at it! 

I used Stamping up Paper and Rubber stamps, the Bunny was cut from Cricut's Create a Critter cartrige at 5 inches.  If you have any other questions please feel free to leave a comment with a way to contact you and I will get back to you as soon as I can.  Hope you enjoy, Happy Craftin!!
