Two little Spooky Houses!

 

Happy Halloween! So glad you stopped by. Our town is having Trick or Treating tomorrow Night. So I have an extra day to get things ready for Trick or Treater's to come.

My Daughter is going to be making me a big batch of Chocolate No Bake Cookies to give out. Thought that was so sweet of her to offer. They are my favorite cookies, so I hope she makes a few extra.

I Love Halloween and my Grand Children do to and I try to do something a little crafty with them before Halloween. So this year I bought them little wooden Haunted Houses for them to decorate.

I ask them if they wanted to add Halloween paper but they both said no, they just wanted to paint them. So I thought I would take a picture of their little masterpieces and share them with you all.




They are Soooo Spooky Cute!!! Hee! Hee!

I also thought I would share a few pictures of my Grand Children carving their Pumpkins.







Love how their Pumpkins turned out and really like the last picture that was taken at night. Like how you can see the black cat window clings behind them.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you have Fun and Safe Halloween and hope you don't get Spooked.:0)


Happy Halloween!!!!!!!!

--I must say I LOVE Halloween and If you are hopping along with us, I'm sure you Love It just as much as I do.

I have made a couple of Cards today to share with you. They are for my Grand Children.

Since my Grand Children are little I always make them Cutesy Halloween Cards. But they said that they wanted their Cards a little more Spooky this year. So I thought these might do.

Here is the first Card that I made for my Grandson Walker.--





Here is the Card I made for my Grand Daughter Scarlett.



 

Both Cards were made using The Happy Hauntings Cricut Cartridge.

On the Dracula Card I used Spider Webbing over the Moon and you can't tell from the photo but the Cape is done in red glitter Cardstock and I used a stylus to add waves in his hair and painted Crystal Effects over the hair as well. I didn't add a sentiment to the front but I may still add one. Not sure yet.

On Frankenstein's Wife I also added waves to her hair and sprayed Glimmer Mist on her hair and the Purple Cardstock so It would be glittery. Heat Embossed the White Spider Webs and used Heat and Stick on the Skulls and added White Glitter and heat set It.

Both Cards were really Fun to make and I hope you enjoyed them.


Up next is the lovely and talented Lisa

Disney Autograph Books!

Good Morning and Thanks for stopping by. I got back from Vacation Friday Night and was Exhausted. We had a wonderful time at Disney World. Well maybe not the day we had Thunderstorms. But we all bought rain Ponchos and still had fun.

I must say the food at Disney is Great. I'm sure we all gained a few pounds. But it was worth It. Two of the nights that we were there we went by boat to have Supper. The kids loved It and one night while going back we were the only one's on this huge boat. So he stopped and we watched the Fireworks from the boat. It was really fun.
It was so fun sharing all of those fun moments with my Grand Children. They were so Excited to see all of the Characters and they Loved the Autograph Books that I made for them.

Here is the Autograph Books that I made for them to take.











Walkers Book was made from The Gypsy Wondering and The Mickey and Friends Cartridge. I made the eye patch by hand.

Scarlett's Book was made using the Once Upon a Princess Cartridge. Added lots of ribbons to It.

They really had a fun time getting Autographs and there was several they didn't get. Hopefully they will go again and get the rest of them. But I'm glad I took the time to make them and I think they turned out Cute.

After our five day stay at Disney we went to Cocoa Beach. My Grand Children and I had never seen the Ocean in real life before. My Daughter had several years before. So this was pretty Exciting for us.

We stayed at the Best Western right by the Beach and It was pretty nice. We got there at night so It was pretty exciting the next morning when we opened the curtains and seen the Ocean.

Here are a some Pictures of our trip.















I had better stop there, Because I could post pictures rest of the day. But as you can see It was a Fun time. If you have never been I suggest going.



Before I go, I want to Invite you all to a Halloween Blog Hop that I'm going to be In. It's October 18th and the 19th. Hope you all can make It.





Again Thanks for stopping by and hope you all enjoyed the Pictures. Happy Day to you!!!   Cindy
