Trick or Treat

I was feeling like putting together some halloween cards, and since we recently got a new kitten, I've been in a cat kinda mood.    The top card is using a Penny Black - Spooky set.       The kitten ghosts below are from  Inkadinkado - GHOULS AND GOBLINS.

Sprinkled with Love

It's been since Christmas since I've posted, but just because I haven't been posting doesn't mean I haven't been crafting.    So I'm determined to catch up and get back to posting.      Here are a few cards using tayloredexpressions.com sprinkled-with-love stamp set.    I'm a sucker for all sweet things, in real life, and in stamp form!
 

 

Hawaii Mini Album

Back in October we went to Hawaii.   This trip we decided to go to the Big Island for a few days before going to Maui.     We split our time on the Big Island between the Hilo and Kona sides.   We started ont he Hilo side, saw the Volcano, went to the volcano winery, went to the Mauna Loa macadamia nut plantation, Hawaiian Vanilla Company,  and we started to walk to the green sand beach (definitely next trip!).    On the Kona side we relaxed, went coffee tasting and enjoyed great food  at the kona brewing company.   I still need to add journaling to the journaling spots, but otherwise the mini album is done!

This year I decided it was time to go through some of my holidays cards I'd created and never sent out as well as some new ones.   Here's the collection that went out this year.     

BOO

 

Halloween is not my favorite holiday.    I don't do "pretend" well, never did, and dressing up in a costume...   forget about it.     BUT I do like all things pumpkin and any with cute kitties, I'm in.    So I'd gotten the top stamp set a while back it's from Inkadinkado - Ghouls and Goblins, and think it's the cutest set.   The last week I was in the craft store and saw the one on the bottom on sale and picked it up, but it down, and gave in and picked it back up.    Here are the creations I put together using them and were sent out for halloween.    I had this post all ready to go and life got in the way.   So better late than never :).      

Birthday Flowers

 

I'm a fan of all of Papertrey Ink.'s button stamp sets.   So with my Mom's birthday coming up I pulled them out and put these beauties together.   I made a few more too, to cover the rest of the birthdays this fall/winter.    This is from the Blooming Button Bits, and the birthday sentiment on the bottom is also Papertrey Ink. - Birthday Bash Sentiments Set.   I really love how they came out!

Owl Love

Card with unity stamp kit stamps.    Playing with layering the stamps.   Cute owls plus sweet sentiment, can't go wrong.   

You are so berry sweet

I've been receiving the Unity KOTM kits since about December.    I absolutely love them and I've been watching the sketch challenge but have just been too busy with other things to have a chance to give it a go.    But recently I had an afternoon and decided to put something together based on the sketch for this month: http://theunitystampco-kotmsketch.blogspot.com/.
