Halloween Blog Hop

Hi Everyone
Welcome to the Halloween Blog Hop, if you have arrived from Wanda over at Green Apple Scrapper than you are in the right place, if not please start at the beginning of the hop at Yolanda with Crafy Sentiments to start the hop from the beginning.

This hop is all about Halloweeen projects. Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year and it seems like it is coming up so fast this year. I have hardly had time to prepare any Halloween projects this year. So this hop was perfect for me to join so I could get my butt in gear LOL!!

I have been daubling in beading lately so today I am going to share a chunky charm I made for a Halloween charm swap that I have been working on.

I maded these using the Tim Holtz Swival clasps. I made the witch charms using inkjet printable shrinky dinks and then bought some witch images and printed them out and shrunk them down. I love how these turned out.
Here is a close up of the charm

If you would like me to post a video on these please let me know and I will put one together.

Thanks for stopping by today and don't forget to enter to win my blog candy! I am giving away the Tim Holtz Halloween re-inker (Fall) set.

Floral Spray Swap

Good morning everyone!
Today is Friday YAY! Well I haven't posted in a while because I have been busy preparing for some swaps and September is an extremely busy month here in Reno! We have so many festivals and events in the month of September it seems I don't get very much done LOL!!
Starting the 1st week in September we have the Rib cook off, this is where vendors from all over the world show up and fight for your vote for the best ribs. This is always a fun event but can be very spendy as the prices for the ribs are totally outragous! But it is always fun.
Then the following weekend is the Balloon Races. Yes Hot Air Balloons from all over come here to race.  Next, the Reno Air Races are held at the little airport out in Stead. My mom always has a huge party at her house for this as you can see everything from her yard. Then last week was Street Vibrations which is where tons of motorcycles come into town. So, these are some of the reasons why I have been so busy.
But I always signed up to do some swaps at Cricut, Mini Alubm Scraps and Craft Happens. So lets check out the first swap that I completed.

I signed up for the Floral Spray swap on the Cricut messageboard. I have never made these before but the examples looked awesome so I wanted to give it a try. Here is what I made:

I must say these are pretty easy to make but man o man do your fingers hurt afterward! Wrapping all of that wires does a number on your fingers! LOL!!!

For the tag I put it on, I used the Imagine Cart- Industrial Glow for the paper. When I saw this paper I just had to use it. For the sentiment I used Jaded Blossom curly die and stamp for the outside of the saying. Then the actual stamp I used for the saying is by Crafty Sprouts.
So what do you think? I made 11 of these to send off and I can't wait to get mine back to see what wonderful creations everyone made.

Welcome Everyone to the Cricut Crafty Challenge day over at the Cricut FANatics Blog!

I am so excited to share the very first Cricut Crafty Challenge with you all today.  If you haven't heard of this blog go check it out. It is all Cricut projects and has a different designer every day.

This time of year is all about getting the kids back to school, so this month's challenge is to make a Back to School gift, layout, card etc.

I made this awesome supply basket to give to my son's teacher on the first day of school.

 

 

 

 

 

For my project, I  first wrapped the basket with yellow paper. I cut and added "photo mats" for the backgrounds of the glue, pencil and crayon. Then I pieced together and added all of the cricut cuts. The finishing touches were the ribbon and the buttons and of course some stickles.

Cartridges used: CCR- Classroom cuts Back to School, Welcome, Crayon and pencil. Create A Critter for the worm, Cursive 101 for the book, Simply Charmed for the glue.

Cricut Info & Supplies Used:

Cricut Cartridges Used: Simply Charmed, Create A Critter, Cursive 101, Classroom August & September

Tooth Fairy Tins & Card Set for Girls

Happy Friday!!

Sorry I didn't post this yesterday, I did something to my back and have been in a ton of pain!
But I am feeling better today and as promised I wanted to show you the girl version I made of the Tooth Fairy tins and cards.

 

Again, I used Dr. Check up for the tooth cuts, and the star I believe is from Create A Critter. The stamp is the Tooth Fairy stamp from Jaded Blossoms. LOVE IT!!! I am in the process of adding these tins (blank ones) to my store and also round ones, so if you want to make one of these yourself you can buy the tins to do so. My store addy is www.whatsscrappin.com and I should have them there by Saturday afternoon.

Here is the set of cards to go with it.

Here is a close up of the receipts

Here are a couple of reminders for you. Tomorrow is the grand openning of the Cricut FANatic blog where it is all inspired projects using the Cricut. We have a ton of designers and fun things planned so make sure you stop by and check it out. You don't want to miss out on some of the AWESOME giveaways!

And as always check out my store at www.whatsscrappin.com I am adding new stuff all the time and I have GREAT low prices. If there is something you want and don't see let me know and I will find out pricing for you. I can get any brands or lines you are interested in.
