Halloween Scrapbooking Party

Tonight is my annual Stampin Up Halloween party. I really am not ready. Been out of town for a few days at a convention instead of cleaning house and making treats. Take a look at the picture below. It shows one of my tags from the October tag swap with Velma of Creatively Outta Control. Mine is the one that says spooky with the pumpkin and skeleton. I like the way it turned out. What do you think?

Fall Craft Show

Yesterday was the annual fall craft show in Atchison, Kansas. My friend Gena and I have had a booth there for several years. This year we went totally spooky Halloween. it was a great success. They loved our mini albums and altered books,but we totally sold out of our mini spooky hat creations. Gena made hers out of paper cups! We could have sold a lot more so we will be starting early for next year's show! Here is a picture from the show.

Something New to Share

I have some new creations to share today. A friend and I are in a Halloween tag swap and these are my two entries. I used two of Tim Holtz's embossing folders and several of my old Halloween stamps. Then distressed everything with Tim's distress inks. I like the way they turned out. What do you think?

This next project is for a scrapbooking class I am teaching at my local library. I cased this card from Happy Life Crafty Wife's blog. She has some great ideas for Halloween! I changed it up a little and just used what I had on hand for paper and embellishments. The stamps are from the $1 bin at Michael's. They are really cute! My lighting was really off in this picture but you get the idea!

So Much Fun

This is all new to me but I am trying to learn all this blogging stuff. Luckily I have a good friend at work who is doing it to so we help each other. Right now we are both working on a tag swap. I made 20 tags last night and went to bed with brown and blue hands. Oh well, it is all part of the learning process. I will try to post pictures of the tags later. That is also something new for me to figure out!
