30 Weeks!

We are at 30 weeks! Woohoo only a couple more months left!

It's crunch time!

It's also Halloween.

So I dressed up as a very pregnant zebra.

And I'm trying to convince the Husband to dress up as my keeper, lol. We'll see if that happens or not...

What are you wearing today? Do you dress up for Halloween?

Kisses,

P.S.,

My dress is a past season by Nadia Tarr. Some her past season looks are currently on sale on flash sale site Hautelook right today! And my ears are actually Zebra Mickey ears pinned in with safety pins.

Happy Halloween!

For you Halloween viewing pleasure I present:

Abigail the Shark Dog!

She was not thrilled but oh so cute!

And was reimbursed heavily in healthy treats.

Beware! Shark dog is on the prowl!

An Autumnal Thanks

Love this sweet little Thank You card I made for a lovely customer out of a past and a current Paper Pumpkin kit. It reminds me of library card pockets.

Kisses,

This is Halloween, Cardmaking That Is!

I made a few easy Halloween cards to give some ideas to the crafters in my stamping class the other day and I though I'd share them with you.

I drew little eyes in the washi tape bottom on this one. Do you "see" them?

Of course I used my Stampin' Up stamps and products to craft them. Product links below.

You're A Gem cheer up card

My Mother is about to undergoing a major reconstructive surgery on her badly damaged leg soon. She was in a terrible car accident where someone ran a stop sign and hit her last year just before Christmas.

It was awful!

On that Note:

PLEASE FOLLOW TRAFFIC LAWS!

STOP at all stop signs and please do NOT text while driving!

You can ruin your own and someone else's life!

Needless to say it's been a very long and painful road with no end in sight just yet... (Prayers are always appreciated!)

So to try to cheer her up and make her smile I made her a witty little get well card before the surgery.
