Little Crochet Pumpkins

 Hello, Hope you all had a wonderful Thankgiving. Did you all over eat? I know I did and just when I didn't think I could take one more bite I had to eat some dessert.I have to say that the persimmon pudding my daughter made was the best that I have had in years and her homemade rolls are beyond delicious. OK I had better stop talking about food. I'm ready for another plate.  

I had been wanting to do some crocheting. I don't do to much crocheting In the summer. But as soon as It starts getting cool weather I start thinking about It again. 

 So started searching and thinking of what I can make. I like to do small things. I try to stay away from the big projects. That seem to take forever. So I finally decided on trying to make a small pumpkin. 

So today I am sharing a picture of a couple that I have made. They are the same pattern but one has the yarn just pulled tighter. Not sure which one that I like best. 

 


These were pretty fast to work up and pretty fun to make. Planning on making some more In different colors. I think I'm going to try a blue one for my grand daughter. (Her favorite color). 

The yarns that I used are Red Heart Love In Aran and Red Heart Super Saver In Cafe Latte.



Thanks for stopping by, happy day to you!

Still Night Birthday Card

 Hello Crafter's,
 Glad you could stop by, Well now that Halloween Is over, we will all be creating those fall and winter projects. Kind of hard to believe that It's now November. 

Today I want to share a birthday card that I made for my Daughter. Her favorite time of year Is fall. ( Mine to) and always try to use fall colors on her cards.

I recently found that fall colored patterned paper at Hobby Lobby and new that It would be perfect to use for my daughter's birthday card.

I think It goes well with the colors of card stock that I used. This Is also the first time that I am using this new stamp set. (I Love It)!!! We both love Owls. So this Is perfect for her card.

I stamped the Owl first In Crumb Cake (Kraft) Ink and then cut out a mask so I could stamp the tree branch and then cut out a circle so that I could sponge the sun.

I felt like It needed a frame and also wanted to have some embossing. So found the frame on the Cricut Cartridge Gypsy Wanderings. Then embossed It and sponged the edges.

Here Is a list of products that I used-

Stamp Sets-
Still Night, Dragonfly Dreams ( for sentiment)
Card stock- Speckled Vanilla (retired),Early Expresso,Soft Sky, Whisper White
Inks- Crushed Curry, Soft Sky, Close to Cocoa, Chocolate Chip, Crunb Cake  
Patterned Paper- Hobby Lobby
Cricut Cartridge  Gypsy Wanderings- Frame
Embossing Folder- Woodgrain
Jute Twine
Yourstory Trimmer for scalloped borders 

Looking forward to later today to give her card and gifts to her. Time for me to get off here I need to start her cake.

Thank you for stopping by. Happy Day to you all and God Bless!

Halloween Treat Bags for Grandkids

 BOO!!!
Did I scare you??? Since It's Halloween I thought, I might try to give you a little scare.  

On my last post I shared the candy boxes that I made for Trick or Treater's. Today I want to share with you a couple that I made for my Grandkids. 

Our town actually had trick or treating last night. Due to all the rain moving in today and tonight. We are going to get a bunch. Blah!

So, my grandkids came last night and got their treat's.

A side view 

I knew that all their candy wouldn't fit in these. But a few special treats did. They also got Yoo Hoo drinks. I get them some every Halloween. My grandson called them Yahoos for years. Ha!

They do hold more than the ones that I made for trick or treater's. The Trick or Treater's also got Halloween cups filled with candy.

These were fun to make. I really enjoy making boxes and bags. 





Here Is a list of supplies used-
Stamp Sets- Jars of Haunts, Spooky Cat, Stars and Swirls, Stampendous, not sure who makes the Spider, Spider Web and tiny black swirls. 
Card Stock- Crushed Curry, White, Black
Ink- Green Galore, Marina Mist, Summer Sun, Memento Black and Whisper White
Everyday Jars Framelits Die
2 Stitched Circle Dies
Stitched Banner Die
Rectangle Die to make handle
Halloween Bakers Twines
Mini white clothes pins
Red S.U. Marker for eyeballs 


I did have a hard time stamping the rat. I can't stand them. A great fear of mine. I couldn't hardly even look at It. I kept telling myself. It's just a squirrel.  Ha!

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Halloween!!!

I do want to apologize for the bad quality of the pictures. I was In to much of a hurry when I took them and didn't take the time to see if they were ok or not. But I really didn't want to take more so I guess I'll just have to deal with It.

Dahlia Card for a friend

 Hello, It's Tuesday evening. My grand kids have gone home and my husband Is asleep. So I thought this was the perfect time to get a post In.

Wanted to share a Card that I made for a friend that Is going through a very hard time right now. She has breast cancer and has had numerous surgeries.  

So I made her this card to let her know she Is always In my thoughts and prayers. 

Used a stamp called Dahlia for this card and stamped It In Cranberry Crisp. Very easy to make since I only had to stamp it on the wood paper. 
Also used a stamp set called Sincere Salutations for the sentiment. Stamped in Close to Cocoa. 
Also added a sheer ribbon and some jute twine.

Thanks for stopping by and would greatly appreciate if you could say a prayer from my friend Rachel. God bless!
