Freaky Clean. . .

Here we go again!

The Freak tour has arrived, and this month we are
keeping it nice and clean for ya :)

Clean and Simple (CAS) that is!

You may have arrived here from Jan Tinklenberg's blog,
or maybe you were stopping by to see me?? Awwww!

Either way, you can make the loop around and see some
fabulous projects, all CAS, and all Stampin' Up!

My first project is one of my favorite-the scalloped
square notecard made with the BigShot.

I had some fun with the Stripes Textured
Empressions Embossing folder. . .little slanted
stripe for interest!

Sometimes your favorite people need a little happy mail.

Look at that darling little percolator stamped with
Stazon on Brushed Silver cardstock! Supa Cute!

I used my hobby blade to cut the inside of the handle. . .

Now *this* is my kind of treat holder!

I made this using the Movers and Shapers XL Die,
adding a few score marks. . . .

A top note, not full size, to keep it closed
and make it purty.

And then some coffee, to make it all better.

Because it cures what ails ya. :)

Hope you had fun taking a peek at my projects, and
now it's time to head over to Dawn Olchefske's
blog! Have fun, and see you next time!

Digital Scrapbooking!

I've never shared an MDS (My Digital Studio)
page on my blog before??

How can that be?

I made an entire calendar last year for family
Christmas gifts, which they loved.

Or so they tell me! LOL

It is a software program that lets you turn
your favorite photos into something
FABULOUS.

Then you get to make whatever you want
from it! Like what? Calendar pages, drop in pages
for your scrapbooks, journals, the list goes
on and on! Plus you get hostess benefits on both the
Product *and* the professional printing! Hubba Wha?

I could talk your ear off for a while, but instead
I will say Pretty Please just ask if you have
any questions about this versatile and fun product!

I have decided to share my pages from last
year with you, but first this page from this year. . .

We had so much fun this year with our
Nightmare Before Christmas theme!

Our favorite Halloween Movie EVER.
Okay, that and the Wizard of Oz.

Technically not a Halloween movie,
but that is always when we watch it!

Check out my babies:


Shock and Zero!
Can you even STAND IT!

And what's more? I actually made the
costumes (for the kids) this year, which I never do.

It was fun!
And speaking of fun. . . I will share with you:




It snowed half a foot two days
before Halloween! Crazy!



My baby (okay, she's three-sniff) was splashing
in the wet puddles everywhere. . .

This one was taken by the photographer who
was at my Hubby's company party.

We won the couple's costume contest!


And finally, a messy favorite of mine :)


Hope I didn't bore you! We love
Halloween around here.

Can't wait for next year :)
