Holiday Tags

The turkey had settled in. I was feeling lazy, so I decided to check Facebook. Mistake #1!

Now, it was not Facebook's fault, but my laptop started acting "funny". Hearing the primal scream, my DH rushed in to see what was the matter.

Yes, dear friends, I had the black screen of death.

**sigh**

After many, many hours with Sony online support (useless), DH managed to get it operating again! He is my computer Superman! XOXO

The irony of the whole situation is that Santa was bringing me an external hard drive for Christmas! Needless to say, that was a gift that got opened early!

As I was sitting here waiting for all my files to back-up, I decided to pop out a few little gift cards. You know, the kind you just put on a gift bag. I thought they would be perfect for those teacher and bus driver gifts.

I am happy to report I used a rainbow of product to make these tags! All of the paper is SU, but the stamps are CTMH, TAC and SU. It is like one big happy family in my craft room!

I hope all my American friends enjoyed their Holiday weekend! Thanks for stopping by!

Boo-lated Halloween

Yes, I know and will say it out loud...I am a bad blogger friend! As I type, I have over 200 posts sitting in my Google reader. Overwhelmed is almost the word I am looking for! :) Thanks for bearing with me, my buddies!

I have actually been doing something other than eating bon-bons, I assure you! I needed to complete over 70 invites for a Holiday Party, then 45 for a Holiday Coffee, and finally 20 for a Holiday Tea. That was all accomplished within the past few weeks. Needless-to-say, I have not had much of an opportunity to craft for myself, let alone surf the web.

With that said, on Nov 1st I felt the **need** to make a Halloween card. And since I was still Halloween in the US, why not?!

Stamps: House of Haunts (SU), Oct Word Puzzle (CTMH)
Paper: Basic Black, Only Orange, Lovely Lilac, CM patterned paper
Ink: Versamark, Black, Cat's Eye black
Accessories: Black Embossing Powder, Yellow Stickles, Mike's Ribbon, Cuttlebug Web Embossing Folder

During my absence, I also found out I had 3 cards published in Just Cards Holiday Cards edition! It was a fun surprise! They were all Bellas...who can resist them?!

Thanks for taking the time to visit today. My goal this weekend is to get to each of your blogs so I can leave you some love. :)
