Some of my recent Creativity!
Ok, I've done a few new things lately when it comes to scrapbooking and card making, but the store is absolutely crazy lately! We are loving it, but we don't get as much time as we use to just to play with new images and techniques...but don't worry, Mindy would never let us fall behind! So, first is my cutesy Christmas card! I just love the little elves. They are my favorite, and to make the card even better we just got a stamp in the says, "Celebrate your inner Elf" so of course that had to go on the inside of the card cause I'm like a 5 year old at times trapped in a 25 year old body! Then we have the Da Vinci Santa...this card is for those people who like the book/movie "The Da Vinci Code" and I personally just love the image. Although some people find it scary!
These two pages are pretty self explanatory, Frankie of course, but they are just two of my favorites!
Of course, I had to leave the flirty fairy until last because she is my absolute favorite! Thanks to Kim in Hali I got to borrow her and stamp out a bunch of images to use! I shouldn't really be posting her yet because I'm using the images for RAK (Random Acts of Kindness) cards for ink-stains, but I just couldn't resist! This one was a b-day card for a friend of mine Melissa! Anyway, enough creativity for now!
Halloween Pics!
Ok, so this is it...Halloween o6! It turned out to be alot more entertaining than I expected, and you know me, I have to be entertained or I get bored. Lucky for me my cousin Amy, aka the RED M&M, is just as crazy as me and therefore extremely entertaining! It all started when her devil costume turned out to be too small for her. She tried cutting the toes out of her red panty hose to make them fit...or at least so the crotch was no longer at her knees, but that failed miserably. So, it was me to the rescue, remembering the M&M costumes my sister and I wore one year at St. F.X. for Halloween! Everything was going great until someone mentioned that good old slogan "they melt in your mouth, not in your hand" and that was it...we might as well have been singing it all night once we had a few too many drinks into us! To add to all the excitement it was also Amy's 25th birthday! Of course everyone knew by the end of the night. We even had a couple of guys get up and sing happy birthday to her, and then of course, like the tone deaf idiots we are we got up and sang "It's my Party"! Still not sure what possessed us to do that, but I'm sure it had something to do with all the liquid courage we had been consuming already! In case you couldn't tell Mark is Bubbles, and he did a great job, he even had the kitty to carry around. And, Thompson was an inflatable ape...the best costume ever, and super cheap too! I think he found it for like $20.00 at Wal-mart or something! We even made it down to the tavern, of course, and everyone was in a costume. It was great...I didn't have to feel like a moron alone!
Sorry about this one Amy, but I had to add it. I just think it's my favorite picture in the whole world!
And of course, I had to add this pic of Frankie as a hotdog. Mom and I made the costume and it was a big hit. I took her to all her usual spots down town, and she actually kept the costume on for like 5 hours. She was a huge hit with the trick or treaters too. All the kids were like, "I get it, it's a weiner dog with a hot dog costume"
So, all in all, Halloween was great this year!
