Halloween Cards

I was inspired to make these cards after watching Robyn at My Pink Stamper's tutorial.

Ghost Pop

It is so cute! I borrowed this idea from Robyn at My Pink Stamper. Boo... Halloween is almost here. This ghost pop is so simple to make. All you need is Tootsie Pops, coffee filters, a stamp, black ink and ribbon or twine to tie it together.

Cupcake Card

Hi there. Here's the cupcake card and matching envie that I made using the Cricut Wild Card cartridge.

New Owl Spacer

Just testing my new owl blog spacer.

Pumpkins cut out using the Cricut Expression. Candy on the right is wrapped using scrapbooking paper. Candy on the left is wrapped with Avery labels stampped with Halloween stamps.

Anniversary Card

I made this card using Stampin Up's beautiful cardstock and ribbon. I used the Cricut Expression to cut the heart out and decorated the heart with Stickles.

Skirt Steak Tostadas

What do you make with a mango, three lemons, three limes, an onion and a couple of hot peppers?

You make Skirt Steak Tostados!

Fall 2009

I love the colors of this wall hanging. I quilted it last Fall using Moda fabric.

I also quilted this table runner last Fall using Moda fabric.

Baby Shower Treat Bags

Here's the little baby shower treat bags that I made for Kimberly's shower.

Ms. Owl's a Hoot!

Isn't she cute! I made her with the Cricut Expression and used the Cuttlebug to emboss her eyes. Also made the cute coordinating envelope to match.

Popcorn Cup

I made this popcorn cup using the Cricut Expression and used Prima flowers for embellishment.

Scalloped Top Purse

I was inspired to make this purse from an example that I saw on Mona's Blog: Cupcake Creations.

Dragonfly Card

I created this card today for my best friend. Both of us have gotten reacquainted with card making and in honor of her unconditional friendship, I dedicate this card to her.
