Halloween

HALLOWEEN, to me it's one of those holidays that we celebrated for our kids.  I don't like carving pumpkins and touching all that gook in the middle of it.  In fact, it is Dad's job to carve the pumpkins with our kids.  I was never one to decorate the house or make Halloween cards.  I have friends that would get into costume when they took their kids trick or treating but that wasn't for me either.  So I'm not  sure why I just had to have the Mischief WOTG along with Wicked, August's SOTM.  I have made all the WOTG scrapbook pages as well as a few others, plus I have even made a card or two.  Below is my favorite.  I just love the cobwebs.


TFL,
Chris

Craft Fairs

It has been years since I've done a craft fair and now I have two in two weeks.  Because of this, I have been making cards, layouts, and other miscellaneous items that could be purchased for teachers gifts, etc.  It's not that I don't have the materials to make a ton of items, especially since I was and still am an avid collector of all things paper and any products that can be used with them.  I'm just not sure what people would be looking for.  Hopefully, it will be some of what I'm selling.





These are just a few of the items.  Let me know what you think.

Thanks,
Chris

October 2011: Holiday Magic (S1110)

In less than two months Christmas will be here again.  For my kids, that is a long way off and for me, every year it takes me by surprise.  Don't get me wrong, it does cross my mind around this time of year in the form of a cookie list, card list, shopping list etc., and the next thing I know it is mid December, lists are started and I'm rushing to complete. For this I have no excuse, especially since it isn't a holiday that falls on different calendar days each year.

This year I made a promise to myself that I would be ready no matter what.  So when I saw our Stamp of the Month for October, I knew this would be one item I'd be able to cross off my list early this year.  These stamps are so cute and I have gotten a great start on my cards
