Happy Halloween

This is a Frankenstein Halloween bucket that I made for my niece Lyla for trick or treating. She was on a sugar high and had the largest smile the entire night! She filled it to the rim with candy. The other picture is a hersheys candy bar, wrapped as a mummy that I made for the rest of my family. Hope you all had a spooktackular day!

Sunset




This was on my way home last night. In the background is Big Baldy, and it is covered with snow. This Mtn. was also in the background of where we got engaged, and also when we got married in June. It also still had snow then too!

This Friday I got to watch my sweet niece Lyla. My sister Jen & Lea were pouring concrete for their home, and Aunt Me Me got to hang out with Lyla. You can check out their blog to see the progress! Pretty Cool! Being an Aunt brings me so much Joy! She is such a happy kid and loves her "tookies". Love that little Lyla pants.

Card Swap



I recently got these cards done at the Scrapbook Retreat at MOMS (Mountains of Memories Scrapbook Store in Great Falls) for the Card Swap that I am currently in. Finally got a little time to work on them. This time the technique was: Ribbon & Glimmer Mist. I glimmer misted the tag with the saying: "May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, and enough hope to make you happy". This stamp is a CTMH (Close To My Heart) set. It was the Sept. Stamp of the Month. I'm fairly happy with how they turned out.

Deal or No Deal!!!


I love this game!!! Tonight at the retreat the Quickutz rep- Dan was there playing some games with all of us girls. My name was the last name to be picked for the night. I picked lucky envelope NO. 7, and I kept it to the end. Thru all the calls to the banker for deals, I just kept going with the big prize in mind - a $300 Quickutz shopping spree. And low and behold, I had it in my lucky envelope! Wooo Hoooo. . . . . . so I got to pick my prize. So Dan showed me the Silhouette and it was valued at $370 dollars and said if I wanted it, that it was mine! So of course I said "Deal!!!!!" So I ended up with a 370 dollar prize, a definete Wooooo Hooooo. I am so excited, and cant wait to see what I design with it!

My Handsome Husband!






Well I just wanted to post a picture of my handsome husband after his "presentation on: Snow bands". I took this picture on the Billings rims and the colors are changing in the back ground. Jager was also along and stayed the nights at a boarding place since where the conference was held wouldnt allow pets. But I got to spend the days with her! Also we were going to come home Friday, but the first snow storm of the season was on its way and Bobs boss suggested that everyone leave Thurs evening. So on the way back to G Falls, we stopped a couple places so I could take some pictures. Tomorrow is a weekend retreat at our local scrapbook store here in G Falls and I am looking forward in getting some stuff done. Hopefully I will get some things done so I can post picts. . . . until then!

Billings


This week was great. . . . . . . My husband had a Meteorology conference in Billings, so I came along to catch up with friends, go shopping, and of course to check out the local scrapbook stores in the area. Above is what I purchased at "Sisters". Its such a cute store with so many fun items. They had a tons of cute ribbons, so I stocked up. Below is "Scrapbook Legacies" also another great store. They have great displays and get you full of inspiration and ideas! Also while I was there I was asked to be a guest designer in January! I am so very excited, I cant wait! Hope my husband has another conference soon. . . . wouldnt matter where, as long as they have scrapbook stores in the area!
