Thanks to you!

This week on Craftaholics R Us

the theme is thank you.

Having a son in the military has brought an

even greater respect to our nations 

military than I had before.

My father also served in the military in the Korean War.

So proud!

I was excited about the theme of "Thank You" because

I knew right away what I was going to make.

I chose a file from Imagine That called 

Military Bundle.

It had everything in it that I needed to make my cards. It

had a digi stamp of a boy and girl military persons as well

as digital papers of all different colors of camo patterns.

The digi stamps are colored with

Prismacolor pencils.

Hocus Pocus

I LOVE penguins!

Their little tuxedos and waddles and the cutest.

Hocus Pocus Penguins

is the cut file I chose to put on two layouts to help

save some Halloween magic.

The background papers were some I have had in my stash.

I added glitter and 3D foam dots to create

texture, shine, and dimension.

Shoptastic Cuties - Wickedly Cute Pumpkin Cutie

Halloween is almost here.

Ready or not the little goblins and princesses will

be knocking at our doors

hoping for a treat and not a trick.

Shoptastic Cuties - Wickedly Cute Pumpkin Cutie

helped me make a darling page to save pictures of

those darling goblins and princesses.

The background paper was a page I found in my stash.

Glitter helped to add texture and shine

(although it can't be seen in the photo).

3D foam dots added dimension.

Happy spooking!!!

Aw Shocks I Get a Charge Out of You

What a fun loving couple!

In this triple easel card, I used the

Charmkin Cutie- Bride of Frankie and

Charmkin Cutie - Frankie files.

I added them to the card base for a triple easel card using a tutorial I found on Splitcoast Stampers.

I added the writing and other die cuts from Cricut Design Studio (any

die cutting machine could be used).

I inked the edges and added a flower with a Wiggle eye to the base

just for fun.

Thanks for checking it out!

Have an awesome day!

Batty Friends

What a couple of cute friends!

BatsFriends from Conie Fong is the cute

digi stamp that makes this card so cute.

The die cuts are all from Cricut Design Space.

The orange circle is a rosette from Ribbons and Rosettes from Cricut Design Space.

The bats are colored with Prismacolor pencils.

Penelope Pumpkin on a Memory Dex base

I brought two of my favorite Etsy shops together for this

cute project!

Penelope Pumpkin by Conie Fong

and October Memory Dex Set from Paper Crafting on a Dime.

The flowers are vellum with black embossing on them.

Paper Crafting on a Dime is a young company just starting out.

Michelle, the owner, is an awesome person to work with.

(So is Conie.)

Hope to see you creating some of the fun things from these 

two sites.

Craftaholics Are Us - Happy Halloween Banner

When witches go riding,

and black cats are seen,

The moon laughs and whispers,

'tis near Halloween!

(Author unknown)

I have for you today, a cute Halloween banner using the

 Happy Halloween file from Kadoodle Bug Designs.

Glitter and 3D Foam dots added sparkles and dimension.

Brown ribbon from my stash was used

to attach al the pieces to make the banner.

All the pieces were in one file.

Hope you are getting all your things ready for Halloween!
