~Purple Cows Great Holiday Ideas Blog Hop Right HERE!!!!!~

You don't want to miss the Purple Cows Blog Hop!
It begins at 10:00AM CST!

My idea is to make that loved one (the little ones) a ROOM SIGN!
I made this for a very adorable 9 year old who LOVES animals,
I thought she could hang it in her bedroom!
It is not only cute & personal, but easy and inexpensive to make,
and let's face it, we all need those kind of gifts this year.The Purple Cows Blog has MANY Project sheets, any project
we make as the DT, we chronicle step by step so you can make them too!
So be sure to check out the Purple Cows Blog as well!
Here or Here
Oh and I used the Purple Cows 6040 FREESTYLE mouse
to make this sign!

~Thanks for stopping by here on the blog hop~
And the next blog is....
JING JING!

Good morning you beautiful Crafty people!
A couple weeks ago I made these Place Cards and a tutorial
for the flowers on them, I used the TS Kit #2
Then for my reveal this week (Sunday) I made some more,
a little less casual Place Cards using Kit #2 from TS as well.
I just love all those Fall Colors!

~Just another Manic Monday....Ohhh ooo...~

I wish it were Sunday Oooohhhh hehehe

Yesterday was the 15th Kit Reveal for Treasured Scrapbooking.
December will be my very last month at TS!
This was kit #2 in November and I LOVED it!
I am so going to frame this and use it in my scrap room.

You know it really is true, I am Happily Domestic, I love
being a MOM and staying home to cook and clean.
I am SO hoping to raise chickens, and bees in our new home!
This will be the first picture to go up in my scrap room!
It has been a beautiful, amazing year with Leslie
she was an amazing store owner and a great person to work for.
Now Treasured in headed off into a new direction and
many new things are happening in my small scrap world.
I am so excited! Thanks Leslie for taking a chance on a newbie scrapper!

This is the very last week of my boys going to school on the bus!
From now on I will be driving them to school!~
Now, let's hope we find a car in the next 2 days LOL
Or the plan will be ruined! hehehe

Don't forget to turn in your Purple Cows Contest Entries!!!

~Have a great week, Happy Monday!!~

~The holidays are coming...and fast!~

Afternoon everyone!
This is the project I have been working on today,
Place cards for the holidays!
I will be hosting Thanksgiving at my house for the first time in 3 years!
I am SOOOOOO excited, I used to host every year in Oregon
but since we moved, #1 we did not know anyone
#2 we did not feel settled enough.
So this year is going to be a hoot!

This is part of my DT work for Treasured, if you are
not signed up for their newsletter, go sign up!
The full instructions for this make and take project including measurements
will be in the newsletter!
I love Fall and I love the holidays!
I hope your Thanksgiving looks to be good this year!

~Thanks for stopping by today~
We are closing on the home either Friday or Monday so
I am going to be scarce for the next couple weeks. Hopefully
I can get everything set up ahead of time to blog!
~Have a great day~

Morning all you crafty peeps!

I have some FUN, GREAT news today...

WOOHOO!!!!
This is my DreamGirls layout for the challenge this week,
It was to EMBRACE THE NEGATIVE,
is the negative on punches or die cuts in a creative was on a LO
I used a flourish I cut with my Sizzix and used it like a mask.
I also stitched not only the title but the edge of the die cut paper I made.
This weeks challenge is so much fun, I hope you go check it out!
RIGHT HERE!

And more fun news?

My Treasured Scrapbooking Reveals!

so I just have this Layout to share today...

OK off to the boys, and we have a Predator Hockey Game to go to tonight.

~Witchy Wednesday Babay *Video & Rak*~

Morning to all, I am a day early in my reveal with these,

but I simply could not wait a second longer!
I wanted to show that you could make these
in fall colors and patterned paper,
and they would make a fun decoration too!
I think the word FALL would be fun as well
and even stringing them on some tulle as a banner!
I used the OCTOBER KIT from Treasured on these,
and Leslie is the best at coordinating the papers to
make any project fun. I have like 7 sheets of paper left
and so far I have made 2 cards,
3 Layouts,
and these 3 witch hats! I am sure I will get at least
3 more Layouts and 4 more cards.

So, am I a dork or what? I think I am obsessed with witch hats LOL
Off to my wet and witchy Wednesday.

Ohhh OHHH wait one second!
I have one more announcement!
PURPLE COWS contacted me yesterday...
guess what?
They are gearing up to host a HUGE contest!!!!!!
I hear the Prize will be HUGE!
and they are being so secretive that I am getting a packet in the mail about it!
I promise to share as soon as I know!
And to celebrate their BIG CONTEST,

I made this quick video...
you can tell I am tired because my mind was very jumbled this morning LOL


and am sharing this RAK
If you watch the video you will know why I am giving away some rub-ons
And it all ties into Purple Cows!
So if you are not a follower become one, and leave a comment.
If you are a follower, bless you I love ya! Leave me a comment.
You keep me making these silly videos and having fun with crafting!
When I began crafting I was with a group of ladies who never shared
how to or anything, they were so mean!
As a result, I LOVE to share projects and ideas! I mean why not
be crafty, creative AND help others to enjoy the same art?

OK off to make a sympathy card and finish a Purple Cows Dt Project!
Have a great day fellow crafters!
