Hi there peeps! I've got another project inspiration for you from Craft Project Central! Now, how cute is this Witch Hat Treat Box & Pop-Up Card? This very wickedly spooky Halloween duo was crafted by Monika Davis at http://www.stampnmad.typepad.com/. I just LOVE th spiders on the hat and the pop up card! How about those candelabras, too?! Too fun! I encourage you to pop on over to Craft Project Central if you're inspired to create this project. I tell you, this October issue is brimming with fabulous crafty creations! Enjoy!

Up next, I've finally got my October Final Friday giveaway...so don't go far!

Note to self...

...I need to CASE this cute Memo board project!  The complete instructions for this handy little project by Laurie Zoellmer is part of the October issue at Craft Project Central.  This would make such a great teacher or neighbor gift, too, don't you think?  I love Laurie's use of the chalkboard Decor Element Sheet and cork board!  If you haven't tried using these different textures and surfaces, it's a great time to step out of your comfort zone and have fun experimenting and expanding your crafting repertoire!

In the meantime, I will make another note to self to get more consistent on my blog posts!  I'll catch up with you guys soon. Thanks for popping by!

Hey there!  Happy Thursday to you.  Does it feel like fall in your neck of the woods?  Well, it's definitely starting to feel like that in Southern CA.  We had some rain and fog yesterday and I think that's when it finally sank in that we're ALREADY in October!  So crazy how time seems to be getting shorter.  Today, I've got a couple of pics to share with you.  I'm so excited to be a guest designer over at Craft Project Central!  For the month of October, I'll be sharing some sneaks of the projects in this month's issue. The first one is this super cute Scarecrow Card and box ensemble by the super talented Kim Score.  She does incredibly amazing punch art!

This next project by Julie Edmonds is such a fun idea that incorporates Halloween with one of my favorite things - spa relaxation and indulgence!  Such a clever idea for Halloween themed favors!

Like what you see?  You can hop on over to Craft Project Central to check out the deets and subscribe to October! 

On another note - did you notice that I decorated the good ol' bloggie blog with a Festive Halloween background?  I thought it'd be fun! It's like decorating my online "house" - heehee.  Have a great day and I'll catch up with you soon.  I've still got to post my October Final Friday - yikes!  It's coming soon, I promise!  Bye for now.
