OMG!  It's day 30 of 31 Days of Halloween!  I can't believe it.  Today's project is a dry erase board I created using a 12x12 piece of arcylic from Clear Scraps.  I then stamped on it using StazOn Ink and stamps from Inkadinkado.  I made all the flowers using zipper trim from Maya Road, grunge board and twine.  My chipboard letters are also from Maya Road.  The sugar skull stamps are from Bombshell Stamps.  I had a friend order this for her daughter's birthday.  I really love this idea and hope you do too.  See you all tomorrow for the final day of the hop.  Kinda sad but all good things must come to an end.

I'm really having some fun making tags.  On today's tag I used stamps from Inkadinkado and Close To My Hear("Thiller").  The remaining embellishments are from Hobby Lobby and Recollections by Michaels.  I used a technique that I'm becoming addicted too.  I stamped the image onto my cardstock and then covered the entire piece in UTEE and heat embossed it.  It gives your image a glossy appearance.  I think it makes the tag a little elegant if that is possible.  See you all on day 10 and I can't wait for you to see it.

Good Luck Card

Day 1 of 31 Days of Halloween Blog Hop

There is always a beginning to everything and today is the day.  The beginning of the 31 Days of Halloween Blog Hop sponsored by Smeared Ink.  I've been working on these projects and I hope you enjoy them. If you get lost during the hop I do have a full list of blogs on a posted dated 9/30/11.  Well...here it is my first project

I made a Halloween wreath.  I found this project online and thought I would put my own spin on it.  I had to be taught over and over how to make a cone (thanks Tammy & Prissy) but I finally got it down I think.  LOL!  I used an old music book I found at a thrift store for the cones. Tammy gave me a great idea and said I could decorate the center for different season which I thought was an awesome idea.  I attached velcro to the back of the center so I can switch it out for whatever season we are celebrating.  I know awesome huh?!  I used stamps from Studio G along with items from Maya Road, Recollections and Martha Stewart.  I love how this came out and can't wait to display it.  Please let me know what you think of it.  Happy October everybody!!  See ya tommorrow!
