Halloween Peeker Cat

Good morning everyone!
It is another chilly day here in central Alberta.
It is windy (-9 celcius but feels like -15)
and snowing a little bit.
I am afraid warmer jackets and mitts will be
pulled out. We (my family) are not ready for
the cold weather yet.

Happy Thursday!
we have a brand new challenge for you.
We are on 
Challenge #373
Halloween 
(If that isn't something you celebrate please
use this color combo)
Purple, Black, Orange and Green

Our amazing sponsor this week is 
Prize: $12 voucher or approximately 4 images 

Thank you for allowing me to color up
and high light this adorable image called
Halloween is going to be so different for everyone
at our house this year. I am looking forward to
it going back to the old way next year.

Halloween Peeker Cat was colored up
using Copic Markers.
I also used the color combo of 
Purple, green, orange and black
with my card stock.
Gina Marie Designs square die was used
to frame the digital image.
Then I embossed the orange, black and green
paper with stars (embossing folder and papers from Stampin' Up).
The base of my card is 5 1/4 x 5 1/4

It was so much fun coloring up this image.
I love Halloween but this year
am missing all of my mom's fun designs
for her trick or treaters. Her creativity was
simply inspiring and it brought me joy
at her excitement to see the kids
faces at their treat bags or boxes.

Please join us at Creative Knockouts
to share your wonderful creations
and for a chance to win some amazing images.

Wishing you an amazing day
and
Thank you so much for stopping by.

Happy Halloween

Happy Monday Morning!
We are a bit colder after this weekend
here in central Alberta.
We had our first snowfall on Friday.
"Noooooo"
I can honestly say, not ready for it yet.
Hoping it goes away soon for
some warmer weather
so we can to get some more yard work finished.

Today, I am here to share a
brand new Halloween card.
The stamps, I am using are from The Project Bin
The background layer with the pumpkin's was
hand stamped using the Pumpkin Spice set.
The Happy Halloween sentiment and the Ghouls with
the sentiment Boo! were used from the Cool Ghoul set.
The Cool Ghoul set also has two small ghost dies.
The paper is shimmery white has sparkles in it
but unfortunately, not visible in the picture.
It does add some pop to the background paper and the Ghouls.
A nice and flat card for mailing.

It is sad to say but this years Halloween
is going to look so much different.
Not too sure how many kids will be out trick or treating.
Our house, sadly doesn't look like we
will be handing out candy.
The first time, we have not done this.
It is so tough with COVID 19 to know what to do.
We will make up a baggy for our
grandson and figure out a fun way to do Halloween
with him this year.

Be sure to check out The Project Bin Blog.

Wishing you a very Happy week ahead.
Thank you for stopping by
and looking at this brand new creation.

Hugs,

Happy Mouse

 

Good, Good morning to blogger land!
It is hard to believe we are already at another Thursday.
I really feel like time is going at high speed.
Another busy week here in the Camp household.
We had a super awesome surprise late last night.
Our oldest son got to come home for Thanksgiving weekend,
from his work. He has been away for 3 weeks.
It was super great to see and talk to him.
Today, we have our wonderful grandson 
and get to see his parents as well, yay!
It sure does brighten up our week.

Today, I am sharing my DT card with you
We have a brand new challenge up today
Challenge #371 - Clean and Simple (CAS).
(I do love these kinds of challenges as I find them tough).

We have an absolutely wonderful sponsor this week.
Prize is 3 Images
Thank you so much for letting me highlight
Isn't he just the cutest.
Great for so many different kinds of cards.
This mouse sure is a happy one.

I used Copic Markers to color him up.
Gina Marie Designs dies when I cut him out.
and
Stampin' Up paper.
I might consider adding a sentiment
later on for the person I am giving it too.
Still up in the air about that.
The layout was very clean and simple.

Come and join us for our brand new challenge.
We would really love to see your Clean and Simple Designs
this week. Looking for more inspiration too,
hop on over to Creative Knockouts.

Sending you well wishes
and a very
Happy Thanksgiving to our family and friends.
You are all loved beyond measure
and very, very appreciated.

Hello Pumpkin

 

Hello Monday!
How was your weekend?
My weekend was pretty good.
I worked in my craft room unpacking
boxes, still tons to do but it is coming along.
We got to see our grandson, son and his girlfriend yesterday.
It was an awesome surprise.
Also, I had a long talk with 
one of my Auntie's was sure nice too.

Today is my day to bring you some
inspiration using The Project Bin Stamps.
The stamps being highlighted today are:
Eat Pie and Pumpkin Spice

The pumpkin was colored using Copic Markers.
The Pumpkin is open and then I stamped 
"I Never Met A Pumpkin I Didn't like" in the middle of it.
On the yellow paper, I used two stamps, so it says "Hello Pumpkin".
I used an embossing folder for my kraft paper 
then thought it would be fun to distress both papers.
It is a pretty flat card which makes it grate
for mailing out.

each week day for more inspiration from our
amazing DT.

It is coming up on Thanksgiving weekend here in Canada.
I would like to say a huge Thank you to
all of my followers and everyone else
who pops in and supports me.
I truly appreciate it.
We are so very grateful to our family and friends
who have supported us throughout this past year so far.

Wishing you a very happy day
and may you have time to get
your craft on.

Thank you for joining me.

Hugs, Kisses and Sweet....

Good, Good Morning!
It has been a very crazy busy last
couple of weeks. My sister has
come for a visit and boy have I missed her.
My brother was able to join us for a couple of days too. 
My new craft room is a work in progress but
is coming together slowly.  
Boy do I look forward to the day
where it is mostly done and a zen place to create.

Today, is my turn to highlight some stamps
The stamps that I have chosen to share with you today
It was fun making this birthday card.
It is really a one layer card with no bling,
so that it can be mailed easier.
I used Prisma colored pencils to color up this adorable 
turtle. The texture was added by a ribbed board for his shell.
The flower paper was in my stash 
It really made me think of the someone
who just adores flowers.
It added some more pop for color.
I took a black felt marker and drew in the lines/dots
around the border.
An clean and simple card for you today.
Please join us each day of the week at
My fellow teammates have
lots of inspiration for you.

Wishing you a blessed day and I
hope you get sometime for you.

Thank You For Your Thoughtfulness

 Good morning friends!
We had an amazing day yesterday.
The only thing missing was our oldest son Tristan, his girlfriend Katie
and my dear mom.
Our son Robin, his girlfriend Summer and grandson Emery
surprised us with breakfast. It was French Toast and simply fabulous.
After we ate, we all decided to have a Beach Day.
 We were very lucky that Kaitlyn and her boyfriend Jon came too.
It was a blue skies day with a wonderful breeze.

The stamp sets that I want to highlight for you
are from The Project Bin.

Our town had a bad storm on July 16th 
and it caused a lot of damage to our neighbors houses
and to the rest of the town.
We were very lucky that our damage was minimal compared to 
everyone else.
The card that I decided to make is for our neighbor John and his son Liam.
They were gracious enough to help us load
up our branches and took it to the brush pile.
It was amazing and so very, very appreciated.

The rectangle die cut brown ink on the edges was done by a dauber
to make it look distressed.
I stamped the image and sentiments
and then used an die to cut out the oval
as to make it look like a picture frame.
Twine wrapped around it, to add to this masculine card.
The pattern paper is just some that I dug out of 
my scrap bins.

Be sure to check out The Project Bin Blog
Monday-Friday
for brand new creations from our Design Team.

Wishing you a really wonderful day!
