Welcome to the Fall & Halloween Blog Hop!



Hi Everybody!
I am so proud to welcome you the the Fall and Halloween Blog Hop featuring the Thankful Thursday Design team.  Thankful Thursday is a challenge I have here on my blog.  The whole reason for Thankful Thursday is to encourage crafters to get their kids (of any age or the kids in their lives), or ANY family member and craft away!!  Since I am a busy mom of four, I don't always have time to craft and spend time with family.  So I figured why not combine the two??  Every two weeks there is a new challenge and these ladies blow me away with their design team projects and this time is no exception!  I'm so lucky to have such a great team :OD 

Note: The current Thankful Thursday Challenge will be extended until Oct. 5th.  You can enter it HERE.  There's another great prize available there too!

Halloween is my FAVORITE holiday, so here is my project that I made:
*Best of Pixar cartridge
*Pink By Design = sentiment from Guess Who set
(September Stamp of the Month Club)
*small empty paint bucket from Michael's
*Core'dinations paper
*red, grey vinyl from my stash
*ribbon from my stash

*I think this would be the perfect little trick-or-treat bucket for my little one year old!


*I LOOOVE this monster cut!


*Here's another view of the monsters.

*I am so in love with Core'dinations paper!  They have different kinds, but the one I used has one color on the outside, and the core is a different color!  This one is black and orange.
*I embossed it, and then used a sanding block to make the orange pop even more!


I can't wait to get started making more Halloween decorations!  And what would Halloween be without CANDY!!!!


I have this cart, and there are a TON of amazing images on it.  Would you like to win it?  To enter:

    Jenny~ I love using these buckets!! They are so fun to decorate and then fill with what ever presents you are going to fill them with. I love the really tinny ones. They are fun to decorate for a swap. I need to look for the Core dinations paper that has the different color cores. I have only found the ones with the white cores.

    What a great idea for kids to take out on Halloween night, I always used a bag with my kids but this would be awesome. And to do it with glowing vinyl if you had some.

    Your little paint can is adorable. It sounds like such a cute idea to let that be the trick or treat can for your baby!!!
