Thankful thursday Design Team

 Welcome !!  Today is our Design Team day over at Crazy About Cricut. This weeks challenge was to make something that was Halloween Decor. Well.. I had an awesome idea and.. had a GREAT helper... My HUBBY!!!  He is such a great sport!! 

So, what do you think???   Here's what we did. We got a wooden board from Michales and painted the edges black. Then decoupaged the paper on it. Since I had no more black black vinyl, I had to cut out on my Cricut. I then Mod Podged everything. I used a piece of ribbon and hot glued it to the back. Easy Peasy!!  The best part...  I crafted with my hubby!!!  Here's your challenge... go get YOUR loved one involved.   

Be sure to go visit Crazy About Cricut to see the rest of the amazing projects our Design did. 

Until next time....  

Happy Crafting!!! 

Hugs, 

Tanya

My project is a lil "mummy" jack 'o lantern. I used a gauze and inked it with some Tim Holtz Vintage Photo. I just LOVE the way it looks. I used Crafty Sprouts stamp set Totally Witchin for the sentiment.  I cut a lil piece of yellow paper to give the eyes, nose and mouth a lil "glow" to them.

What's a blog hop without Blog candy??  How about this Fall flower set? I LOVE fall colors and hope you will like this as well. This is hand made by me and will ship in a box. This measures 4 1/2 by 3 1/2 ..  To be entered to win this.. you #1.. must leave a comment #2.. AND your email addy in case you win and.. #3. Be a US citizen.

 Hey ya'll.. Glad to have you. 

Today is Paper hoarder Design Team #1 Day!! I am so excited about this challenge as it was truly a challenge for most. I know that sometimes we, as crafters, find our comfort zone and stick within those limits and it is hard outside of them. This challenge took a few outside of those limits. I am so proud of this team and am excited to show you their work. The challenge was to make a shaped Halloween card.

Some of us began our crafty lives as scrap bookers so we decided to split the year up and some of us make a lay out or two for an album for Kimi. We know how tough it can be as a new(again) mom to make time to craft. So, we wanted to make it a lil easier on her. This way.. all she needs are the photos and the journaling!! Tada!!  I have the months of March and April and also prettying up the front of the album with my hand made flowers. I am so honored to have done this for one of my bestest friends. I hope you like these pages and your album.
