Halloween Fun!

Happy Friday all!

I have another fun project to share with you today!  The Doodlebug Blog challenged us to use their Halloween line, no matter old or new, so of course I had to play along!!!  My kids dressed up last year as their very favorite characters from Toy Story, Buzz and Woody. 

Fortunately, I have the Toy Story Cricut cartridge, and that came in very handy for the titlework here!

I cut the spider webs from Paper Doll Dress Up and of course, I had to add a little spider web action by weaving my thread through the web and under the spider.

A little paper pleating and velvet ribbon under the right photo and Mr. Toad gets a bit of jumparoo flourish for fun as well.  I used my "new-to-me" trusty typewriter to do the journaling, love that thing!!!  All of the products on here are Doodlebug with the exception of a little coredinations for photo matting and a bit of trim and string.  I snuck a little orange "create-a-base" card on here too because I just LOVE them!!!

Thanks for letting me share my "not so spooky" Halloween page with you! 

Have a super scrappity day!!!

Just for fun!

Good morning to you and Happy September!!  

I have a sweet little card to share with you today using the adorable create-a-card base from Doodlebug!  Have you seen them?  Our local Archiver's has the entire line of them and the colors are amazing, as are the variety of styles. 

Their blog had the cutest ever little sketch that they call a "Doodle".  I used it as my starting point for inspiration. 

Here's my interpretation of their Doodle:

A closer image for detail:

The stick pins here are Little Yellow Bicycle but they matched so well I had to use them!  I dressed them up a bit further with some mini jewels.  I used my Cricut Expression 2 to cut the scallop layer underneath the cute cut cake.

It seems like I always need a fun birthday card and this one went together so quickly.  It's fit for almost any age, so that also makes me happy!  I can't wait to play with my other colors and shapes that I bought in the create-a-base line!

Thanks so much for stopping on over to spend a moment with me!  Have a super scrappity day!!!
