Stamper's Showcase - Kristi N

Hello Friends!

If you haven't read a post regarding Kristi N., please scroll down just a little.  She's a new & wonderful Stampin' Friend I'm honored to know!  She has three adorable young children and still finds time to create beautiful cards and gifts for others!

In the Birthday Shopping bag she dropped by the other day for me was the adorable gift below!  It made me laugh so hard! 

I had a doctor's appointment the next day and shared that I received Pumpkin Poop for my birthday from a friend and I was so happy about it!!  My doctor giving me an odd look, as if she was thinking I needed more 'medical help'... ha ha ha   But I mentioned Stampers have such a good sense of humor, explained more and I think, she thought I was 'kind of okay'  then!

I  have plenty of poop to go around so, I thought I'ld share it with you!    Enjoy!

 

Happy Halloween!!!

Lois

On Mischief Eve, (Oct 30th)  I'll be another year older, gee, the mind is going faster and faster...:)

Enjoy getting ready for Halloween!

Wooden Photo Blocks - Halloween

Hello Friends!

I love working with wood, Stampin' Up! Designer Series Papers, accessories & sanding blocks. Put it all together and you get really neat Photo Holders! I plan on adding ribbon & hodgepodge pieces to finish the decorations off. (I'll update the picture when it's totally finished)

The wooden photo squares are from Oriental Trading Co.

 

What a great way to Showcase your children's or pet's Halloween Pictures... Yes Pet's too!

Oh YES I did! Both my boyz are Devil Dogs !!! Sammy (5 years old)

 

Billy (4 years old) is a little Devil Dog & a little crazy... :)

 

What, you didn't believe me when I said Billy was a little crazy too!?!!??!?! It only takes him 3 minutes to take the stuffies guts out!! 

Look at that face.  But Mommy, I didn't do it, Sammy did! Mommy knows better! <boyz will be bozy>

 

Hey Karen B... I finally let the dogs out!! Sorry it took so long to post pictures!  Can you believe that!!?! What a bad Mommy!

Happy Halloween!

Thanksgiving - Mayflower Ship Template

Hello Ladies!

I'm so excited... just a few minutes ago my friends Patty in California & Debbie in Florida helped me in New Jersey figure out how to upload the two Mayflower Ship templates to my original post from October 10, 2008.

You guys are the best, thank you so much! I love Stampin' Up! and Blogging, without either my life wouldn't be as fun and rewarding as it is!

So if you haven't seen my 'early bird' Thanksgiving post... or if you are one of my stampin' friends waiting for me to upload them, just scroll down to the October 10th post, and Enjoy!

Thank you for your patience!

Have a great day!
