Halloween Party Trio

Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year, I always did like getting a little spooked and scared.  We always have a Halloween party for the kids and this year I decided to make some cute things for the party.

 
On the right is table place setting and will have the kids names on the back.  In the middle is the goody bag and on the right is some bat straws.

 
For the goody bags I used a translucent bag and filled it with curled up papers and added some cute costumed kids to the bottom.


 
For the place setting I covered a clothes pin with patterned paper and added a journaling card to the top.  I also cut out a crow and added him for fun.

 
The straws were super easy to make, I cut out some cute bats from patterned paper and glued them to the paper straws.

 
These were so fun to make.  I can't wait for this party to get started!
 
Thanks for stopping by.

Boo!


Just stopping in to say a quick Boo to you!

 
To make this wall hanging I covered an old Making Memories chipboard word with subtle black paper and cut out some ghosts to add to it. 
 
You can never have too many Halloween decorations!

It's not really poison...


I made this poison box for a friend who is really into Halloween.  I am going to fill it with really scary treats.
 
I painted a small gable box black and covered the sides with patterned paper.
 
 
For the top I attached a couple of tags with twine and tulle.
 
Hope you have a scary day, thanks for stopping by.

Any monster's in your house?

I have two really big ones.  I always use my monster spray to scare them away.

 
To make it I took an old silly string can and wrapped it in paper, cut out a few monsters and voila monster spray.

 
Hope you can get rid of the monsters in your house.
 
Thanks for stopping by.

Some really big pumpkins!

With fall in the air I decided to try and get caught up on my fall pictures from last year.  I had some great paper from Crate but not enough to do a 12 x 12 so I thought I would do and 8.5 x 11 layout.  I haven't done one in a while.
 
 
I added a chipboard frame around my really big pumpkin in the wheelbarrow and wrapped twine around the whole layout.

 
I also made a pinwheel accent from the left over bits and pieces.

 
It's such a nice feeling getting caught up on pictures that I really want to scrap.
 
Thanks for stopping by.

Horse Happiness

I have a friend who loves horses and when I saw this hilarious picture in my Smash book I knew I had to give it to her. 

 
I ripped it out of the Smash book and glued it to the front of a notebook.  I added some ribbon to the edge and some twine.  I know she will smile every time she uses it.

Thanks for stopping by.
