For kids at Halloween



While looking for some cute images to make for my GREAT niece and nephew, I was blog reading and came to Curt's world.  If you havent checked out his blog, you should. :)  He has the coolest pics and adorable cards.  He found this cheap set of images at Michaels and even used his coupon to pick these cuties up!  (I did the same)  I kinda cased his idea . This  set comes with 4 adorable kid friendly monsters. It is "my little monsters" by Recollections.  I colored mine with copics and then popped up these board frames I got in another isle at Michaels.  I threw away the packaging on the frames but they come in several sizes in a large pack- cheap!  DP is BG and MS.  I plan on putting McDonalds gift certs inside to mail to the kids.  TFL-

Fabulous Faces from the STAMPSMITH

I really LOVE these images over at the STAMPSMITH.  This is from the "Fabulous Faces" sheet of rubber and I believe it is Marlene Dietrich.  The STAMPSMITH has a new challenge blog and I made this card for their second challenge.  Use black, white and one color.  Dp is Graphic 45 and I used my book nestie along with an embossing nestie, ms border punch (never get bored with using) and some sheer ribbon .  The charm is from some vintage charm card at JoAnns.  Corner has spots of stickles.
Thanks for looking!  :)  By the way,  I am having some major issues with internet explorer and going on to certain blogs.  For some reason it isnt letting me .  So, I apologize for not commenting on everyones blogs, but I have tried and I am hoping to get this figured out soon!  :)
