Treat Bags

As we won't be at home Hallowe'en  night, I made some old fashioned caramel apples and with some candy and chocolate, put them into a treat bag for the neighbourhood children. I also used Paper Doll Dress Up to make the pumpkin and cat for a topper. BOO!!

Hallowe'en

This is the last week to show some Hallowe'en spirit so I entered several challenges. For the first time, I used a digistamp and coloured  it with Prismacolors, used My Mind's Eye Blackbird paper, and added some pop dots. Voila!

Happy Birthday Mom!

October 19th....and my Mother celebrates 93 years!! We will go out for lunch and have a good visit. Maybe a manicure and pedicure will be in the mix....mother-daughter fun! So with that in mind, I made a card for her. She loves birds and has a feeder attached to the window where she watches the flurry of eating. This card was made for someone older but the paper was given to me years ago before I started scrapping. I used the Live Simply cartridge (new) and added some glitter to the wing, some faux stitching to the leaves and the sentiment comes from My Pink Stamper Punnylicious

LRW - something old, something new

Fantabulous Cricut  - leaves

Hello

Little Red Wagon challenged us to a photo challenge. How cute is that! On owl!!

I used Create a Critter and the sentiment comes from Hero Arts.

A Steckle Woods Hike

I was thinking of the song "if you go down to the woods today, you're in for a big surprise...." as I entered the woods and began to hike with my Probus gals! What a beautiful day Monday! The sky was blue, and the leaves were changing colour but what impressed me a lot were the fungi! I had never really paid much attention to fungus before. Today, though, I looked beyond the trees. There was a lot of laughter and singing (who me?) as we got lost and ended up hiking in a big circle. Our group got separated from the main group as we were so enthrolled with the flora and fauna....oops. The pictures say it all!!
