Getting in the mood . . .

May include: A decorative sign featuring the text Happy Halloween in orange lettering on a dark wooden board. Two white ghosts wearing black witch hats sit on top, surrounded by orange jack-o'-lanterns and small black bats on a white background. 

Hello friends ...

WOW can you believe it's the last day of October?  

That means Christmas is not that far off and the stores are already PUSHING it!   I thought I'd join in a few holiday challenges today.  Here's what I've created . . .

 


 Challenges I'm sharing in are:

 CAS on Friday #346 - Embossed Background (ends 11/11)
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #792 - Christmas (ends 11/11)
CAS Christmas October Challenge - Poinsettia (ends 10/31)



Recently (after seeing some amazing creations online using this set) I purchased the Altenew 'Winterberry Poinsettia' embossing folder & stencil set.  Today I finally cracked it open and used the embossing folder for my CAS style card.   My sentiment came from the Soto Studios 'Looking Forward Christmas' Sticker book.  

 

 I have a craft show coming up next Saturday so I'm busy making sure I have everything I need for the show . . . but hopefully once that is behind me I'll have time to get started on all the holiday cards I need for myself and can play more with this beautiful set!  Today I just used a portion of the embossing folder ... making room for a sentiment on my A6 card.  I'm addicted to 3D embossing folders ... lol.


Well, I'd better keep moving here ... we usually get between 150 - 200 kiddos for T-or-T but with Halloween being on this LAST Saturday of the month this year, all the neighboring towns have  T-or-T tonight too so we may not have as many ... time will tell lol!  Either way, I have 4 big bags of candy so I should have plenty ... those that come the last hour usually get the most!  I certainly don't need all that extra candy sitting around LOL

Have a wonderful weekend!

 Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,
I appreciate it more than you'll ever know!!

As always . . .
