Merry Monday #36

Hello again everyone.  Just a quick post today as I wanted to get this card up before I missed out on it.  The challenge sketch is for Merry Monday.
I chose once again to use October Afternoon Holiday Style and the stamp set is again from Stampin' Up! as is the ink and cardstock.  The wood veneer is from Studio Calico which I am in love with lol.
EDITED ON 15th Oct, 2012. . .I was too late to post it to the challenge site, never mind maybe next week.


This is the sketch. . .



Okay that is all from me for now but you never know
In the meantime. . . .

Halloween Cards

Hello once again people lol!  Here it is in less than two weeks I have done three posts hehehe.  I absolutely love Halloween and we don't celebrate it here in Australia unfortunately which is a damn shame because I think a lot of people would get involved if we did celebrate it.  There is stuff available in the cheap shops but nothing scrapbook related at all.  I asked my friend Sherry if she would purchase the new October Afternoon Halloween collection for me and send it to me.  I just put the money into her paypal account and when it cleared she ordered it for me.  It is an amazing collection to say the least and I will be doing a mini album with it when I get it.  We will be travelling down to my eldest daughter's home in Sydney for Halloween and because her partner is Columbian as is his family of course lol, they will be celebrating Halloween so this year I get to go all out so be prepared for lots of Halloween projects including some wonderful 3D candy boxes etc.


The stamp sets I used are from Paper Smooches and they are adorable lol.  I used some old Memory Box halloween papers for the second card and Basic Grey Eerie papers for the first card.


That is all I have today but in the meantime. . . .
Walk about your day with beauty.
