Good morning friends,
It is a beautiful "Fall" morning in Dixieland. Actually, we are getting some really nice, cool temps this am. I have a cute Halloween Treat to share with y'all today. One of my hostess clubs made these this month, they are really simple and cute!
Materials: Chalk Talk Bread Tag framelit, Owl punch, Hexagon punch, Basic Black 1\8 inch ribbon and White Baker's Twine.
Cardstock: Whisper White, Basic Black, and Tangerine Tango
Ink: Basic Black and Tangerine Tango
Stamp sets: Halloween Hello and Perfectly You Hostess set (131877)
Directions: I cut the tag with the Big Shot, Stamped it with the Bat from Halloween Hello in Basic Black.
The ghost is made by punching out a white owl with the owl builder punch and trimming off the feet.
Use the middle size circles for eyes and the heart for the mouth out of black. The ghost is popped up on a dimensional and attached to the bread tag. The Hey Pumpkin is stamped with Tangerine Tango on a scrape of Whisper White and punched out with the hexagon punch. It is adhered with snail adhesive at the bottom of the tag. The cello bag has 2 graham crackers, 2 chocolate nuggets and a Peep ghost.This is tied with the 1\8 inch Basic Black ribbon and White Bakers Twine.
Hope you like this and it inspires you to create a cute Halloween project. Have a blessed day, Thank you for stopping by, I always look forward to your comments- so leave me one!!!Thanks- God Bless you real good.
Creative Therapy sharing projects, products and techniques for paper crafting, some baking, peach tea and hopefully inspirational ideas.

Here comes another one, just like the other one....Strut Miss Susie...
Do any of you remember that song or games? We played it at school and Girl Scouts back in the dark ages! What you ask does this have to do with my blog post today? Absolutely nothing!!!! Just one of those random memories that come racing back at times. I was pondering a title for this post and kept thinking-another pink card, when all of a sudden I was singing Strut Miss Susie! So, there you go!
Now, on to the business at hand. Yes, another PINK card for the LINK UP for PINK challenge. This one I literally used scraps on my desk from the previous cards I made this month. (That's were the here comes another one...came from)
This picture is not great and I don't know why. The strips were created with the Melon Mambo design washi tape from the Gingham Garden package. The ribbon is also Melon Mambo 1/8 inch striped ribbon with a black brad at the center of the bow. Butterflies and flowers what could be more girly than that. The framelit is labels and the flower from Flower Shop stamp set. Hope you like it.
On another note, until the 21st of Oct. You can join Stampin' Up for only 25.00. If you are interested in ordering your supplies at a discount or building your own business please contact me and let me show you the ropes! I'd love to have you on my team! Thanks for stopping by, God bless you, now go bless those around you and you will be truly blessed.

Having a good time
Hey girls,
I have been having such a good time in my craft room this week, it's unbelievable! Lately, I realized I have been working in here only to get ready for hostess clubs, craft fairs or something pressing. Well, this last week I have just been playing and enjoying stamping and I remembered how much I really love to stamp! It has been relaxing and reinvigorating! The card I am sharing with you today my Stampin' Sistas hostess club did this month. It is also a LINK up for Pink card. So can you guess what color it is? Yep! PINK. Specifically, Strawberry Slush and Pink Pirouette with a little Primrose Petal thrown in and I love it! It's a great girl card without being "too girly". Let me know what you think. I alway enjoy your comments. Stamp sets are Simply Stars and Bootiful Occasions. God bless and have a great day.

Challenges, challenges, challenges
I have discovered I kinda like a challenge! Maybe that's why I'm addicted to Candy Crush on facebook these days! A challenge gets my mind thinking and my creative juices flowing. It's the best way to find my MOJO after a dry spell, so lately I have been doing a stamping challenge almost everyday and have really enjoyed it. Today I have one for Pals Paper Arts, it is color challenge 174. Hope you love this card, I used the masking tape technique and also colored the ribbon Very Vanilla seam binding with Pumpkin Pie ink. Stamp set is Blooming with Kindness, great set, I stamped the flower image in Early Espresso. Thanks for stopping by, Blessings.

I am linking up with Link up for Pink, a blog created to bring attention to Breast Cancer Awareness and remind our families and friends to have their "girls" checked every year. Here is the card I created today to share with y'all.
The base is Strawberry Slush and Pink Pirouette, with a touch of Pistachio Pudding! Stamp sets- Gorgeous Grunge, Papillion Potpourri,and Express Yourself. Oh, and six-sided sampler,too! Almost forgot that one. Hope you enjoy- don't forget get em checked! Be blessed and be a blessing to others.
