Witch Candy 3 Panel Cards

 Hello & Happy Saturday!

It's going to be a beautiful day here today! I have a couple of quick errands to run this morning then i'm going to pull some of my Halloween decorations out and get started. This year I don't think I have it in me to put everything out so for now it's just going to be a few things. Last evening I packed away a couple summer items to get ready for Fall & Halloween. Shawn said "are you kicking summer to the curb"? Heck yes I am! I've been loving the weather the last few days since it's been cool so YES, I am kicking summer to the curb!

Today I have another set of cute Halloween cards to share with you. This is set #11 in my quest to use up my stamps, inks, embellishments & papers! I can see that i've already made quite the difference in my magazine holder that houses all my Halloween papers!

This set is a pack of 6 and I used the Patty Bennett 3 Panel Card design on these...

Lots of pictures for this post but I wanted to show the different looks of the 3 Panel Cards once they were put together and the inside. That inside sentiment is from DRS Designs.

Card Details:

Stamps: Bewitching (retired-2022), Frightfully Cute (retired-2021), DRS Designs  (Sentiment-inside)

Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Memento Black, Stampin Blends-Pumpkin Pie

Cardstock: Pumpkin Pie, Basic White, Black Glimmer Paper (retired), Monster Bash DSP (retired-2019)

Accessories: Witch Hat Builder Punch (retired-2022), Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Stitched Rectangle Framelits (retired), Stamparatus (retired), Black Classic Matte Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Another pack that turned out pretty cute and it feels great to use up retired supplies, too!

Ghoulish Delights

 Good Morning & Happy Wednesday!

Today I am sharing the last project we made at my recent Stamp Day w/ Friends get together.

I sometimes like to share with the girls a treat holder and one that is simple to make!

Stampin Up brought out these cute Peekaboo Treat Bags that are like nothing I have ever seen before. They come in a package of 10, 5 White and 5 Kraft. Food safe bags that are fun to decorate! 

Since I had some leftover M&M's on hand that is what I used in the bags and I decorated it by the colors of the M&M's.

Project Details:

Stamps: Bewitching, Ghoulish Goodies (retired)

Ink: Memento Black, Pumpkin Pie, Stampin Blends- Gorgeous Grape, Parakeet Party, Pumpkin Pie

Cardstock: Basic White, Gorgeous Grape & Parakeet Party DSP

Accessories: Stamparatus, Stylish Shapes Dies, Witch Hat Builder Punch, Peekaboo Treat Bags, Parakeet Party Metallic Ribbon, Glitter Washi Tape, Gorgeous Grape Enamel Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I have been wanting to use these bags and forgot I had them.

They hold a nice amount of candy and I love that they stand up on their own!

Update on my doctor appointment:

My insurance would not approve my inhaler that I have been using for the last month. My doctor gave me samples that she had in the office in September and they did not have anymore so she sent a script in to CVS. This was for a different inhaler with the same medicine in it. Insurance approved it immediately. Shawn ran to pick it up after supper last evening. It cost $95 with insurance! I think both of our jaws hit the floor. Without insurance it would have cost $389! Doctor gave me 2 refills on the inhaler but let's hope after sticker shock that I won't need to refill it. This inhaler is completely different from my last one. This is an aerosol one where my other one was a pill that crushed and you inhaled the dust. And this new one I have to use twice a day instead of once. 

And all my bloodwork came back very good this time which I was pleased about.

I was diagnosed with Diabetes in April 2021 and so far have been able to stay away from being put on medicine. I try to move as much as I can and watch what I eat for the most part. Sweets are my downfall.

Bewitching Card

 Good Morning & Happy Tuesday, Everyone!

We have a rainy, dreary day on tap here which makes for a good day to grab a nap!

Had my check up at the doctor last evening.

She put me on the inhaler for another month for my cough and I got a flu shot.

Also had blood work done which I won't know the results of that until later today.

I sure between the Prednisone & my inhaler (which is a corticosteroid) it's definitely going to be throwing my numbers off for my A1c and sugar glucose.

I have the last card from my recent Stamp Day w/ Friends get together to share with you!

This one uses the Bewitching bundle from the July-December Mini Catalog and used the Witch Hat Builder Punch to coordinate with it.

I love the colors on this one and how fun was it to color that hat and the witch's legs!

We stamped the legs & witch's hat using the Stamparatus which makes it so easy! After we stamped and got the desired look we left it sit a few minutes to dry then colored with Stampin Blends.

Card Details:

Stamps: Bewitching, Best Witches

Ink: Memento Black, Gorgeous Grape, Stampin Blends-Pumpkin Pie, Parakeet Party, Gorgeous Grape, Daffodil Delight

Cardstock: Basic Black, Parakeet Party, Basic White, Black & White DSP

Accessories: Stamparatus, Stitched Rectangle Framelits, Tailor Made Tags Dies, Witch Hat Builder Punch, Tasteful Textile 3D EF (retired), Black Matte Dots, Black Glittered Ribbon (retired), Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

This is just so pretty and the way I like Halloween!

Witch Hat Slider Boxes

 Hello & Happy Tuesday, Everyone!

I hope your week is going well so far!

I picked at a puzzle all day yesterday until I just could not keep my eyes open any longer.

I have about half of a 1000 piece done. I hope to finish it today!

We had a cold front come thru yesterday that left our weather feeling more like late November. It's windy and the temps dropped down into the 30's overnight. We are only to get to 50 today! Burrr! Coldest temps so far this season. 

Today I have another cute Halloween treat to share with you using the Bewitching Bundle from the 2022 July-December Mini Catalog. It's a cute set with a coordinating punch.

Marisa from over at Kitchen Table Stamper showed us how to make these on a FB Live a few months ago. I made these before I got sick so it's been awhile. Each box has 5 Dove Milk Chocolates in.

Project Details:

Stamps: Frightfully Cute (retired), Bewitching

Ink: Gorgeous Grape, Parakeet Party, Pumpkin Pie, Memento Black

Cardstock: Gorgeous Grape, Parakeet Party, Pumpkin Pie, Basic White, Black & White Design DSP

Accessories: Witch Builder Hat Punch, Frightful Tags Dies (retired), Black & White Gingham Ribbon, Blending Brushes, Iridescent Black Dots (retired), White Twine, Hand Held Hole Punch (retired), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I made 6 of these, 2 in each color.

I will make these again for Christmas since they make a cute little stocking stuffer!

And who doesn't like the Dove Milk Chocolates?!
