Oh My Fright Treat

 Hello & Happy Sunday!

We are in for a stormy day so I'm not so sure we will get out for a walk or bike ride.

One day earlier this week we popped into a local grocery store to grab a few things and I found that the store already had some Halloween candies out on the shelves! I was kinda shocked by that being that it was only the end of July. I saw a box of one of my favorite candies all decorated for Halloween and I grabbed a few boxes of them...

And so my mind went directly to our Stampin Up! Halloween selection this year and I thought, how perfect! This is what I made with these cute little boxes...

The box really did not need much more so I just put a belly band around the center where the words were and decorated it with my friendly little ghost and added a few bats to finish it up!

Boo To You!!

 Hello & Happy Saturday, Friends!

Things are still going good here at the Aungst Pad with Miss Bailee.

The last 2 days we have seen a big improvement in her. Her spunky attitude seems to have returned and her tail is definitely wagging alot more. We even took her out for a small walk last evening! I am hoping things will continue to be good.

I made my way to my stamp table yesterday. I have so many new stamp things sitting on my table that were begging to be used. I pulled out the Oh My Fright bundle that is on the Stampin Up Online Exclusives list. I've had this suite for awhile but haven't been able to use it till now.

Card Details:

Stamps: Oh My Fright (Online Exclusives)

Ink: Basic Gray

Cardstock: Timid Tiger, Basic Gray, Basic White, Basic Black, Frightfully Fun DSP (Online Exclusives)

Accessories: Oh My Fright Dies (Online Exclusives), Stylish Shapes Dies, Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Swirls of Magic EF (Online Exclusives), Adhesive Backed Bats, Ghost & Dots, Black Satin Ribbon (Online Exclusives), Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

This suite of products is very nice and the dies have some great ones in it! I especially like the tag that is included. I already diecut several to use for future cards!

I am hoping to make my way to my stamp table this afternoon since I found a cool sketch I would like to try. Shawn wants to go for a bike ride first since we are having some pleasant weather. Trying to get back into the groove again!

Happy Halloween!!

Hello & Happy Friday, Friends!

Happy Halloween, too!

Any fun plans for trick or treat night?

We will be out handing candy out like we do every year. I'm just hoping the winds aren't too crazy and it's not freezing cold out! Last year it was 80 degrees and one of the nicest trick or treat nights I think we ever had. 

Today I am sharing the last Halloween card I made. This one also uses the Spooky Sweet DSP and some of the punchouts from that paper. I love that Stampin Up! has been adding this to some of our paper packs.

Card Details:

Stamps: Fright Night (Online Exclusives)

Ink: Memento Black

Cardstock: Basic Black, Basic White, Spooky Sweet DSP (Online Exclusives)

Accessories: Fright Night Dies (Online Exclusives), Shimmer Foam Stars (Online Exclusives), Halloween Night Twine (retired), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

No Tricks, All Treats!

Hello & Happy Thursday, Friends!

It's to be a total washout today with heavy rain. We really need the rain so I won't complain too much. Then the winds are suppose to kick up after lunchtime making for a blustery day! Hopefully we dry out before trick or treat night!

I have a Halloween card to share today that was made with the Spooky Sweet DSP. 

Card Details:

Stamps: Spooky Halloween (Online Exclusives)

Ink: Darling Duckling (2025-2027 In Color), Timid Tiger (2025-2027 In Color)

The cauldron, broomstick, banner, candy corn & bats are all punchouts that are included in the Spooky Sweet Designer Series Paper Pack. That makes for a quick card!

Also today starts the Christmas movies over on the Hallmark Channel.

Personally, I love Christmas but think it's a wee bit early for then to start. Nonetheless, I will still be watching! Tonight starts a new mystery series on there called the Mistletoe Murders that stars Sarah Drew & Peter Mooney. It is a holiday murder mystery series that started last year on the Hallmark Plus streaming service. I enjoyed watching them so I will watch them again. There are new episodes every Friday night for the next several weeks.

Happy Jacks

 Happy Fri-YAY, Friends!

I am so looking forward to the weekend!!

Tomorrow we are having a Halloween Day with Kelsey that we've been planning for a few weeks now. We got a Halloween puzzle to put together and making a pot of chili to eat throughout the day. We also got Halloween pj's to lounge around in, then tomorrow night is the new Halloween movie on the Hallmark Channel that we are excited to see! I picked up all kinds of junk food which is something I don't eat too often but this weekend we are making an exception. LOL Not sure how that will go being that today is injection day for me. I guess it depends how much it curbs my appetite but I am planning on having the chili and cornbread! YUM! I will share pictures one day next week!

Today I have a Halloween card to share that was made with stuff that is in my stash. 

Card Details:

Stamps: Festive Corners (retired)

Ink: Memento Black, Pumpkin Pie

Cardstock: Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Spooky Night DSP (retired)

Accessories: Patterned Pumpkins Thinlits (retired), Stylish Shapes Dies, Halloween Night Twine (retired), Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Those cute jack o'lanterns are from the Spooky Night DSP from 2017 and are diecut directly from the paper. I'm sure next Halloween season you will be seeing more of those jack o'lanterns since I had 3 packages of that DSP to use up. I'm slowly getting there!

That's all for now!
