Mini Monsters Pumpkin Tags

It's the day after Halloween, but I had to show my silly cookies.
One of our Halloween traditions for years has been to decorate Halloween sugar cookies as a family, I wish all could have been here, but I was glad for those who could come this year.   I gave each of my co-workers a silly decorated pumpkin cookie then made a super quick tag to add to the bag.

Paper: Matte Photo Paper

Happy Anniversary Card Join our Challenge at Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog

Hi, so glad you joined me on my card share today.
I am so excited to be back with Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog and joining the bi-monthly challenges.

This weeks challenge: Anniversary Theme

I am so blessed to have wonderful parents who lovingly cared for me and took me to church every Sunday, which definatly gave me a strong foundation in life.  And today, October 29, happens to be my Mom and Dads anniversary... yep today, so below is my card I mailed to them for their anniversary.

I designed this card in Cricut Design Space using the Sweetheart cartridge, the images I used are the heart and the word love.
 I used American Crafts vanilla cardstock, Recollections gold cardstock and patterned paper from my stash.
 I had fun adding layers to give stunning dimension, the heart and love word were cut out 4 times each with the vanilla cardstock then I glued one on top of the other.  I hand stamped Happy Anniversary using Lawn Fawn stamp set "Happy Happy Happy" in black ink.
I randomly added white sticky pearls from my stash of supplies. 
 Close up look of the layered dimension

Winter Mittens Gift Card Holder

Oh so cute! I just love how the winter mittens turned out.  Giving a gift card can be very stylish with these cozy mittens, the only difference with the photo below is I've added a "To From" tag on the back side where the scallop pocket is.
Come see more photos in my Easy shop and maybe you'll find something that is perfect for holiday gift giving.


Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today.

Hello and New Updates!

   Hello friends, it has been way too long since I hung out here at my blog and it's due time to blow the dust off and get posting again...... (insert long blowing noise).

Life continues to take us to all different directions and I'm sure many of you have had just as much change as well.  We've endured a few moves, built a house put in a yard (ok, my husband has done most of that), had a few weddings.  Now all my girls are married and I have wonderful bouncing grand babies to enjoy, life is full and I have been blessed.

Although my life is full, my creative adventure never seems to stop, and as you know I'm always creating something with my piles and piles of paper and supplies that I've collected, and it's about time to share my latest creations, so I've decided to open up an Etsy shop.


This shop name is one that I've carried withe me for many years now, the H A V are the initials of my three wonderful daughters, and the 2 Create, well I'm sure you can figure that part out. {smile}
I have always loved shape card so you will see in my shop I have a ton, I've made the sweetest baby cards that can be personalized, Apple cards that can be personalize with a favorite teachers name, cute mini Christmas gift card holders, birthday gift card holders, birthday balloons and much more.

Enough talk.... lets get the the photos, below is what you will see in my shop right now.   -caution photo heavy-












I would love it if you could come take a look around my shop.  
Tomorrow I'll show you my darling mitten gift card holders in three different colors please stay tuned ;)
