Trying to figure out why it took me so long to get these few cards posted! Can't come up with a good answer, so lets just get started! Designer paper from 2024, Candy cane Christmas, via Tonic studio. 

 Ornament dies are from Elizabeth Crafts, I think. I put them away & forget!

Yes, I will add sentiments to the first ones. 

I like the ones with the string of lights. Maybe Lawn Fawn lights.

Glitter glue or glossy accents.

 Santas 'Merry Christmas'. Easy, but have no idea where it came from. Sorry.

      One more to show.. I think the window is memory box, maybe called 'madison'. I just had a bunch of cuts. The bird is a studio light punch out sheet from eons ago. Layer 4 layers to build the 'bird'.

                          Something different. Tonic 'festive' papers

                                          Thanks for looking!

 Good morning! I am up early early today, as my little Lucy Lou is not feeling good. She is asleep now, and I am watching her. Yes, that is what we do.

I will do a quick & easy share. These are layered 'maple tree' dies from Altenew. So versatile. 

Just liked the designer paper background. 

Super easy, this last one has a touch of foil. 

Hope you enjoy! Happy fall!

 Happy trick or treat!! Its getting time.... So lets sneak in one more set of cards I forgot to share. This is the only dies I got from the Spellbinders craftoween set. I wanted the raven & the books and the spider and all of them.... of course!

                Looks like Franken bat.. He's on his way to work in the pink nomad. 

And one more from this AM. This is Gourd Dee, another stamp from Aall & Create.

Busy girl... 

 Happy Happy & Thanks for looking!

 Happy Halloween! Just wanted to share a few more cards for the 'haunting' night! These are all from Aall  & Create. I used a combo of 'digis' and stamps. Had so much fun, still have one more to photograph! Our ghoulie friends in the car are Mostly harmless. The 'rip' & the haunted house are digis. The gravestones are The grim reaper. 

  Digital stamps called 'Halloween moon, grim reaper, Haunted house all from veralanedigitalstamps. The witch is called 'free broom rides. 

This is the Grim reaper ( digi), and Brainy & cute is a stamp.  Unsuspecting little goofballs...... The bees are a stamp. The tree is a die from Altenew.

Can't remember the name of the stamp below! 

                            So that is it for now. Thanks for looking!

 The ghoulies are everywhere already, so lets get to the haunting!!

 This is the cute that I showed you last week, Its a pop-up from concord & 9th. The images are pretty random, a crafters companion stamp set, a bunch of skeleton dies from amazon. 

Here are the skeleton dies from Amazon!

Had fun with these. 

Now for some of the digital Halloween cards. These are papers from Rosies studio. Gotta have a shaker card or two!

                                          Thanks for looking!

                                      More fun ones tomorrow!

October

 Yes, its October and for the first time in 7 years, I didn't honor my Gracie. We lost her to kidney failure in October 2018, I miss her.

       She used her dish like a skateboard. Had a tile floor and she chased it from the family room to the front door! She rolled with it!

 She is so cute & funny!

But then Oct 18th, Lucy Lou enters life! She was adopted by us on Dec 18, 2018. So tomorrow she is officially 7. 

Our little sweetie.....And so it begins....Never had one like this one ever. It barks at everything, loves Fed Ex, UPS, Garbage trucks & neighbors. She 'smiles' at everyone. Its a toothy sideways smile. Even the vets recognize it as a 'smile'. 

 Loves her toys. This was 2021. She was 3 & skinnier. Is that a word?

 2022 here. So she was 4. Make no mistake, I could wallpaper with pictures of Lucy. Just a few more!

This is a cross between a smile and a growl. She growls like she is talking. I hope.

All packages are hers......

She wants in Dianas lap, or maybe she is just annoying her! This is last year. Below is last Christmas.

This is guarding. We just ignore her when she does it. 

Pretty much what she does all day. 

Funny girl. Our froggy dog below!

Happy Birthday to Lucy Lou!

Thanks for looking!
