It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!!

 My BIG event of the year Mistletoe Madness is Nov.6-7 so the Crafting Frenzy is happening at my House!  I will have a sneak peek of a few items at the Independence Uptown Market this Saturday 10/31 8-1pm.  

Christmas Crew is such a cute Bundle and should be back in stock Nov.16th!   I will have lots of treats ready to SHOP with Cocoa, Cider, Manly items and MORE!  I colored the Crew with Blends and used Circle Punches to layer on this Retired Plaid paper.  I plan to fill with a Kind Bar and Slim Jim's.  Plenty of room to slip in a Favorite Gift card or some CASH!!  More sentiments available, I was trying to show all the paper patterns and just noticed they all have the same message!!  

  And for the Hunters I grabbed these Retired Deer for a Winter Scene.  The Birch and Woodgrain paper really highlights the wildlife!

Stop by and SHOP for your last minute Halloween items and Pumpkins that last forever!!  Saturday 10/31 is the Last weekly Market!  Next Market will be Saturday 12/5.

Pumpkin Cards.....

 I am hesitant to share these cards because the Stamp is NOT Stampin' Up!  The rest of the card is ALL Stampin'Up!  But this stamp is perfect for coasters and WOW have I made coasters!  SO many I cannot order any blanks right now......hoping that changes soon.   Anyway what's a Girl to do?  

Ideas have been rolling around in my head and these cards were created.  Lots of fussy cutting, shadowing, coloring and layering.  These cards will be $4 each or 3 for $10.  I have 8 but can make more it anyone is interested.  

SHOP the Independence Uptown Market to see them on display 10/24.  8-1pm.  ONE more week of Market so come see me 10/24 or 10/31!!

Lost Lagoon card base and Light Pumpkin Pie Blends.  I love the Grunge Look of these cards, this is my style.  It took me all afternoon to make 8 cards, I crafted OUTSIDE!  And Josie helped!  This weather has been such a Blessing, I hope everyone gets out and enjoys the next few days.  

Ahhhhh.......FALL

 Today was gorgeous!  I worked outside, crafted, sat outside with Josie and crafted some more!  My BIG event is 11/6-7 at Gamber Community Center in Lee's Summit and I am NOT ready!  Fall cards have been selling FAST so I made 20 more today!  Is everyone's Birthday in October?  TWO more Saturday Markets 10/24 and 10/31.  Come shop local and SEND some cards!  I have also made 8 more Pumpkin Coasters.

I had NEW and Retired items on my craft table and went for it!  I LOVE this paper but needed to make some different looks!  The Acorns are Adorable and Fussy cutting them is so easy!

Some Retired Plaid paper and Current Leaves Punch and an Acorn.

Favorite NEW paper with embossing and a Retired wooden Leaf inked in Cajun Craze.
