Crop till you drop...

I went to the Oakdale Coyote crop. It was put on by the PTA at the school. 12 Hours of croping fun! Soda, snacks, lunch and dinner included. Great for 30 bucks the way I drink soda. LOL

So for 12 hours I got to spread out on a huge table.. that was nice seeing how I'm used to scraping on my computer desk. So after 12 hours I did 7 pages part of a mini book and a Halloween frame. I forgot my Cosmo cricket chipboard for these so I have to finish them today..

More of my red velvet kit.. I think I can get another page out of it LOL I need to make a embellishment for this one so I can use it in scrap mojo if I'm not too late lol


Scotty's first carved all by himself pumpkin


More from my beloved cosmo cricket line OMG I love haunted but I think I'm about done with it lmao Markie again last year..I left room for journaling but I'm not sure if Ill do that or not


This picture cracks me up! My son loved that kitty to the point of pain. Good thing God made kitties resilient
LOVE hurts is all I could think of for a title..


Life lesson number 95.. I dont know why I picked 95 but I did. I love this one tho It was funny at the time and I still think its funny. That paper is the Cosmo cricket Hello sunshine line; its a really bright line and very happy colors.


More of my redvelvet kit. thats a pic of my mom and her cousins way back when. I had a hard time thinking up a title and I may change this.



Violet.. this was my last page of the night and Im not feelin it. I think I could have done a bit better but Oh well.


so after I finish the other two things Ill post them too.

I got home after all that time and show my husband what I did... know what he says... " Tahts all you did in 12 hours!" He sure dont get it.

Dont you love suprises?

I finally broke down and bought a red velvet kit a few weeks ago. I really wasn't too thrilled with the papers. Pinks are not my friend lol.. BUT after working with them and making a few pages I'm IN LOVE!! Thank you cousin! she is the one that told me how fun they were.

so here are three pages Ive done with the Oct kit so far..




PROOF that if you try new things you find stuff you like!

I also made a awesome Halloween card for my sister shes a total zombie freak. Used my beloved glimmer mist on this one. Meadow green and Graphite with a little sandy beach.


SO Im slowly getting ready for Halloween.. Im not feeling it so much this year. I dont know why eather. But going to the pumpkin patch with cousin was a huge help.

LOVE me some Cosmo Cricket!

I know I say it a lot but I LOVE Cosmo cricket papers. I wish I could paper my whole world with them. The haunted line is delightfully dark and I cant get enough of it. The sweet little skeleton they came up with, melts my heart every time I see him.
So Took the kids to the Dell Oso Pumpkin patch and had a total blast! Afterwords My lovely cousin Marie and I went to a local crop Here in Oakdale.
I made this with some of my haunted papers, chipboard and die cuts.


I used some alcohol ink in butter scotch on Making Memories metal frames. Then rubbed my Staz on jet black ink pad to make the pattern pop. BOO in Black glitter Thickers. I had to get that cute skeleton ribbon on there too.


I added some glimmer mist goodness to the super awesome bat that I love


EEK I so Love that product line.

Fall is in the air

ahhh fall the weather has been so nice the past couple of days. Im really glad too becuse Friday Im going to the pumpkin patch with My cousin and her kids. Its going to be a ton of fun and not too hot woot woot!!!
Ive done a couple of pages the past few days.


this one was a small trip to the pumpkin patch with my sister and the kids. It was for www.pencillines.com sketch 104 but I didnt get it done in time.. such is life. the cute tree paper was from the dollar spot at target also the little sticker embellishments so if you have a Target run out an check them out.



This is a shot that my sister got of Melanie. I love that pic and thank goodness she was in camo and I could use Mr Campy papers hehe. That awesome lace is form a ebay lot I won. I love it


So Friday evening My cousin and I are going to go to a crop here in Oakdale I know its going to be fun as it always is. Its going to be a FULL day but thats fine with me

I had a busy weekend!

I went to a crop here in Oakdale at the Pamperd Scrapper. Cousin and I had some real fun. Im serious if you are ever in town youve got to go everyone there is super-DEE-duper nice.
so I thought I was gonna work on halloween cards but NOPE! I had NO mojo flowin.
I did this tho

and I started this but didnt finish it till today.

I ran my wood grain paper thru the Dymo seeing how I didnt have any of that awesome wood gran stuff that cousin got.

So I got on a Halloween Kick I mean who couldnt with all those wonderful paper lines out there?
