NND--Bunnicula Goes Trick or Treating!

Here's my 1st Halloween card for the season!  I pulled out Newton's Nooks Designs Boo Crew.  I love this bunny because he always reminds me of the book, Bunnicula by James Howe.  My oldest granddaughter is finally old enough to enjoy the book, so I'll be sending this card with the book!  Seriously, what can be more fun than reading about a vampire bunny!  I'm submitting this card to the these fabulous challenges.  Thanks for stopping by!  Debbie

Favorite Side Kick--Coffee Lovers Blog Hop #10

As I was looking through and commenting on some of the amazing coffee-themed cards over at the Summer Coffee Lovers Bloghop, I was inspired by entry #159 Lydia's fun card. It had such a fun super hero feel.  I pulled out my Paper Smooches' Super stamp set and a coffee set by Gel-a-tins.  I just love that big grin on the super hero's face.  It's how I feel when I get my morning coffee!  Thanks for dropping by! ~Debbie

Halloween with the Boo Crew

I just can't get enough of Newton's Nook Boo Crew stamps!  This time I wanted to use the entire Boo Crew while using the Inky Paws' colors.  I created another watercolor sunset with some new watercolors I picked up at Michael's today.  The fun tree is a Silhouette image...my hubby bought me a Silhouette Portrait for my birthday and I am finally get time to play with it!

Bee Happy--Bright and Cheerful!

Here's a clean and simple card I made because I needed something bright and cheerful!  (It's been at least one week of indoor mornings and recesses!  Image 34 third graders and one teacher with cabin fever!  To top it all off--the temperatures are rising, but the inversion will be setting in--more indoor days!  UGH!  The joys of living by mountains!)
