Caw!

Happy freezing-freaking-cold Monday!  We actually had snow flurries yesterday - SNOW FLURRIES.  Before Halloween!  My poor kitty is not liking this, I think I heard him grumble something about moving back to California.  ;)

I thought this paper was just perfect to pair with that awesome crow and then I created the sentiment with my Dymo Caption Maker and stuck it to a wooden text bubble accent.  Finished it off with a ribbon tag.  Peace.

Spooky

Hello there - I had fun crafting this past weekend and I made a ton of cards, here's one of my favorite creations:


This one is for the following challenges:


When I saw the theme at A Day for Daisies, I almost didn't play because I didn't have any black lace.  Then I had an "ah-ha!" moment - I sprayed a piece of white lace with my Black Velvet Smooch Spritz and voila - black lace!  LOL   I used a sticker from SRM Stickers and some Hallowen papers from my stash.  Peace.
