Wow I have a hard time making Halloween cards before Ocotober gets here, but once it does I just love it. I have pulled out all my Halloween ribbon, paper, embellishments, and stamps. My room is a disaster and I have a workshop next week. I guess I will spend Monday cleaning up! 🙁 I was checking out my blogs and saw Taylor’s cupcake challenge. I liked the layout since it was a way to use wide…
Today is World Card Making Day. Take some time and make a card today to celebrate this holiday! Boy I was really long winded yesterday. I guess I was just so excited about my bath poof discovery.

My first thought was to do a silhouette style card but then I thougth it would be nice to have some soft colors and decided to use my Pearl Ex (I would love to know…
The Verve Forum has been running a meet the Diva’s challenge for 12 weeks. I have participated in a few of the challenges when I had the time. I had time so I wanted to do this one. The challenge was to use purple on your card. I had this ribbon I got from an ATC swap I won that I wanted to use so that was my starting point. I really like the way…
