Everyone loves a pumpkin

Halloween is almost upon us and I needed more decorations. You can never have enough know matter the event in my opinion!

Well I saw this pumpkin at Michael's on one of my visits there about 2 months ago and since I never pay full price for anything I finally got it all and ready to put it together. Love 50%-60% off sales. I think it's one of my favourite Halloween characters that I haven now!

Paint the pumpkin purple and then green leaving little hints of orange showing through




Then drill a hole and put in the seasonal branches


Hot glue the skelton head to the pumpkin



Display on your front steps


Hope everyone has a safe and Happy Halloween!

Halloween card

Saturday was scrap day. I got to spend some treasured time with some amazing women. I love these days.

I'm also very thankful for them as they are farther apart than I would like. It wouldn't have happened if my mother-in-law Hazel hadn't taken Marcus for most of the weekend. Terry is busier than ever writing a paper and studying as well as preparing for his classes he needs to teach this week.  I have an amazing mother-in-law.

Now getting together to scrapbook or whatever the craft is we are doing one would think that we would get actual projects done. Nope that's not the case most of the time.

This weekend I did get some cards done for the kids in my dayhome for halloween. I got to use an embossing folder  from Cuttlebug (spider web),  then inked it in Stampin Up black in, then used my cricut for the spider and the moon (doodlecharms) and inside the card I used Martha Stewart Halloween stamp. I think they are cute for the lil ones.
