I am really going to miss this Ghostly Greetings Paper when the final trick-or-treaters have come and gone. (I made sure to save one sheet with the words for a scrapbook page or two!) This card features that paper with Pumpkin Pie, Going Gray, and Kiwi Kiss Striped ribbon. And I used the scalloped edge punch.. AGAIN!!!

Pssst... Only 59 Days Until Christmas...

So here's a friendly reminder from your Stampin' Pal that it's time to get organized. Time to plan the (handstamped) cards, the gifts to make, the treats to bake, the holiday menus, the gifts to buy. And TODAY is the day to start!

Click on over to Organized Christmas for Day 1 of this year's countdown. I'm off to update my binder and get this season going!

Spread Some Halloween Happiness...

 

This is my version of the little treat basket/purse that is making the rounds on the Internet. This one isn't the tiny favor box size. I made this larger (think a large order of French Fries) because I want it to hold a handful of Halloween candy. I love the Ghostly Designer Series Paper and that's the new Kiwi Kiss Striped Grosgrain around the top. I'm thinking I'll make five more and let them be my Halloween Teacher Treat this year!

(There is a video tutorial out there for this project created by a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator named Michelle.)

Are You Still In???

My pictures are not nearly as good as Ali's -- my lists are way more abbreviated -- and my husband and children are running from me -- but I'm still in! My "Week in the Life" is going to be an interesting little project when I put it together next week. I never would have captured so much of the mundane, so much of the routine.

If a week is too much, follow Stacy Julian's approach and give yourself a present!

Happy Creating --
