Happy Halloween Everyone!

I got my phone replaced.  I love the new iphone and one of my cousins had me buy the OtterBox Defender Box from ebay which should be arriving soon.


First News...

It is with great sadness to tell you that the October release was my last release with Emma of My Creative Time :(.  I had the best time being a part of her team and working along side such talented ladies and I am going to miss it so much.  Now it is time for another set of Awesome Designers to have fun working not only with some Awesome My Creative Time stamps/Die but with the sweetest person I know Emma herself.  Wishing her nothing but the very best in everything she does.  Thank you Emma for everything and for the opportunity of being a part of your Design Team.

Now...
Here is a card I made for today, last Halloween Card
Card Size 4.25 x 5.5
DP is Authentique "Glowing" stack
I did some stitching around it with purple thread
Image is from Cindy's Scraptastic Design called Witch with Banner, I colored her with my copics but I just noticed now that I should have colored the collar differently.
Sentiment is from My Creative Time Mixed Holiday Sentiments, I love this set.
Flowers are from Recollections
Gems used are from Imaginisce i-rock
I also added some Twine from Trendy Twine

I hope everyone has a Safe Halloween!  Try not to eat all the candies.

Don't forget we have a Blog Hop this Friday!

BOO

This is a quick post for you.  I am so upset because I accidentally dropped my huge acrylic block on my iphone and it completely shattered the screen.  I'm trying to replace it this weekend so we shall see, all I can think about is I could have bought crafting stuff instead of buying a new phone.

Okay enough chatter, here is what I made today to calm me down, LOL
Card Size 4.25 x 5.5
Cuttlebug - Haunted House Folder
Image is from Cindy's Scraptastic Designs called "Say Boo"
I have the image on Action Wobbles but I can never get my camera to capture it:{
I also added stickles on my star but for some odd reason it is hardly showing up

Don't forget we are having  Blog Hop
