MDS BLOG HOP FRIDAY....OWLS!

I love this weeks theme! Owls, or birds....so fun! And Stampin' Up! has so many fun wonderful digital stamps and punches to fit the theme!

I adore the Owl punch we have. So many cute things have been made with this punch. I decided to make my Owl a Halloween Owl. Perfect for the upcoming holiday!

I actually saw a super cute card that fellow demonstrator, Anne Marie Hille,  had made with the actual punch (not digital but using actual paper). I decided to CASE her card and recreate it digitally.

Here is my card:

I used the Frightful Sight Designer Series Paper, along with the Owl and the Bitty Bat Punch.
The little trick or treat bag comes from the Spooky Bingo Bits stamp set.

This card size is 5 x 7....nice and BIG. :)

Thanks for stopping by today. Sorry the post is so short today. It's been such a hectic week, that I am actually amazed I got this done! LOL

Be sure to visit the other ladies on the hop and check out their creations!
Have a great weekend,

MDS BLOG HOP FRIDAY

Welcome back! Happy Friday to all!


This weeks theme was to be inspired by the person after us in the blog line up. Ms. Aly is right behind me. This was no easy task as she has some wonderful inspiration on her blog. I went back through her blog a few times to narrow it down. I finally decided on this one:

I love the placement of the photographs, and the pop of color in the DSP behind them. What sweet pictures these are! Look how happy she looks holding that bundle of joy! :) LOVE!

Ok, so my page isn't nearly as sweet as those baby pictures. But I had fun with it. 

I used pictures from our Disney Cruise. This was the Pirate night, and it was a blast! I used a Crumb Cake Background, with a Vintage Overlay in black. I thought it made the page look weathered and almost burned on the edges. The DSP is from the Ahoy, Matey! Digital Kit. 

Thanks for stopping by today! I can't wait to see what the other ladies have come up with - so be sure to continue on the hop! 

Have a great weekend....

MDS Blog Hop Friday

Hello Friends,

Welcome back to another exciting round of MDS Friday Blog Hop! I have a confession....I didn't stick with the theme this week. Shame on me! I have seemed to misplaced my digital mo-jo this week.  I hate when that happens. I started several pages, and just couldn't get it together. Deep sigh...
sometimes you just gotta roll with it. :)

Here is my page. It's my cute little man of his first day of school. I used the Back to School kit which has lots of great digital papers, and embellishments.

Thanks for stopping by this week. I hope you are having a great weekend and enjoying some wonderful fall weather.

Be sure to visit the other ladies to see what they have for you this week.

MDS Blog Hop Friday - Halloween!

Hello Friends,

It was my week to select the theme, and I chose Halloween! Anything Halloween goes....
and since we have such fun digital content for this holiday, we have lots of choices!

I chose to make a page with my little munchkins from several years back.

Here is my page:

This is a really clean, simple layout (which I love). 

I used Crumb Cake for the background paper, and colored a pennant in Old Olive and Basic Black to tie in with the small pieces of DSP that I used. The Designer Paper is called Wicked Fun.

I also used the splatter tool, and a the Vintage Overlay to make it look sponged. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Make sure you continue on the hop and see what the other ladies have for you!

Have a great weekend!
