Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween my bloggie friends.... Oh wait that was yesterday! Well I am sorry I did not post yesterday but I was side tracked with all that my little monkey's had going on! We had lots of fun this Halloween season. My monkey's got to dress up four different times. It was kind of nice since you put all that money into a costume for them to wear one night for an hour or two! I think they got great use out of these costumes though and will have fun playing dress up in them for a while. So I made some craft treats for the kids to take to school and some to hand out last night and I thought I would share them with you.

 I made these for last nights Trick or Treaters (all two of them that we got, good thing I made up fifty bags right? brother...) I mad the pumpkin from the Little Critter Cricut Cartridge and used a the stamp Orange you... fun from Kristal Andrew Design's Food for Thought Stamp set. And the Happy Halloween was a stamp set I picked up in one of those bins (Not great quality but I could not get Kristal's Fall-o-ween stamp set so I had to make do with this!) I just love Kristal's stamps... yeah I know I go on and on about them in my blog... but seriously look at how much you can use them for lots of different things! She has some amazing new sets out as well. Be sure to check them out (http://kandrewdesigns.com/)
 Look how cute they look flowing out of my bucket... Such a shame more kids did not get them!!

I made these for my little monkey's play group. There is a wide range of ages in the playgroup so I thought goldfish would be better then candy! I used Kristal Andrew Design's Splashtastic summer stamp set for the Fishing you a... See what I mean about the versatility of her stamps?

SO cute :) Got lots of compliments from the parents. My husband just looks at me and laughs and asked me why I can't hand something out that is just plain jane... WHAT FUN IS THAT?!?!?! I love putting special touches on things! SO much more fun!

Well that is all from me today my bloggie friends! Hope you have an amazing day. :)

Getting Cricky Sunday Challenge - Halloween

Hey Bloggie friends! I wanted to enter this weeks Getting Cricky Simply SundaybChallenge. The theme for this HALLOWEEN! I am kind of excited for Halloween this year. Normally it is an "okay" holiday but for some reason this year I am already in the Halloween mood! So I already started thinking about my son's school Halloween giveaway and I thought candy does not need to be given out by every child! This year his class is doing a hundred book challenge which starts in October as well. So I made bookmarks for each child.
I used the Locker Talk cricut cartridge to cut out the ribbon and the hat was cut out from the Mini Monsters Cricut cartridge. I used Kristal's Fashionable Friends stamp set to get the "Hat's off to you" (if you like that stamp you should hop over to Kristal's website and order it! ;)) The Halloween Stamp came from a little set (not sure where it is from) that was a present from a friend. I think they turned out pretty cute... I may just have to make more for the trick-or-treaters! Hope you enjoyed! Have a fabulous day all! P.S. if you are reading this before 9PM CST on 9/16 be sure to stop back tonight when I am the Guest Desinger on the Getting Cricky Blog Hop!
