Welcome to My Nightmare !




Its that time of month again when we post our cards from the 12 Kits of Occasions! 
What is that, you say? The 12 Kits of Occasions just click the link to learn all about it. 

Jessica  is our host this months and as you can see by the kit photo above, 
Jessica sent us an adorable fun filled kit!

 Lisa from My Paper Tales will be filling in for Cathy for the rest of the year. 
Hugs to you Cathy!
Welcome Lisa!


I used Papertrey Ink Papertrey Ink - Cover Plate: Comic Strip Die on my card above! 
This way I could get a lot of the stamped images from the kit on one card. 

I lost this “ happy halloween die” and looked all over for it, I found it stuck to my rolling chair wheel,  
it looked like a ball of thread. I could not believe I was able to save it!

On the card above I only added sequins and the little stamped tag that was in the kit! 
No stamping just the patterned paper.

 I love the way this one turned out, CAS. I added some tape to the windows then glitter. 
The sentiment is from Waltzingmouse stamps.
The hill was made with a Stitched Borders 1PPP from Serendipity Stamps .
 For a complete list of the supplies you can go to the upper tab at the The 12 Kits of Occasions Blog. 

Thank you so much for the visit!

Papertrey Ink MIM Box


This week creative video comes from Ashley

Hi and happy Monday to you! I made this in the morning but only had a chance now to post!
Monday is my stamp and play for fun day,  I almost always play along with 
Papertrey Ink Make It Monday!



The felt stars are from the Papertrey Ink Quick Stitch Kit: Beaded Holiday When I bought this kit I saw it as seasonal because of the stars! I will be adding these stars to my Halloween banner. Ive made many mittens and stockings just haven’t had time to post.





All products used are from Papertrey Ink today, even the felt!


Thank you so much for the visit!



I used the Papertrey InkPapertrey Ink - Seed Packet Die, cut it in half, then cut two sides off as pictured in the first photo.  I cut two new sides 2 3/4 long and 1 1/2 these are not exact you will want to match up. Then I scored the two side at 1/4 like Ashley showed in her video. Ashley showed a very easy box I just happened to give this a try because I wanted a larger box. Its about 1 1/2 by 2 inches .

Happy Monday to You!




Gorgeous Inspiration from Betty!


Good morning! I made this card yesterday but no time to take the photo. I had to watch the big Green Bay / Seattle game, happy to report Green Bay won!!!  Sorry Seattle fans. I took this photo outside at 6:45 am the sun was just coming up. Photo is a bit darker than in real life.

I created a stamped wreath using the branch from Tinsel and Tags Kit, then layered a few die cut wreaths and added a bit of flowers from Bitty Blooms. I used Leaf Pops from Serendipity Stamps for the glittered berries.

I hope you have a wonderful week, I have a lot of catching up to do with comments and house work.
