Sneak Peek for November Projects

Here are two layouts I’ve designed for Remember Me Scrapbooking — using products from the store.

This first one is using the Making Memories Christmas kit. It is fantastic!  It comes with 3 different paper designs, letter stickers, epoxy buttons, and 2 sheets of stickers.  The only thing I’ve used other than what is in the kit, is a bit of Bazzill and ribbon.

 Here is another layout I’ve made using the new Making Memories Flocking and Foil kit.  This is such a cool item — it comes with 4 sheets of transfers which are like sticky rubons.  Then you use the flock or foil sheets, place over top and rub on.  The final effect is very, very cool — the witch on the layout is black flock and the haunted house is silver foil.  Then I cut some May Art ribbon (ghosts, bats and pumpkin) and glued them onto the Bazzill cardstock.  The title is a combination of the New American Crafts Thickers in giggle and Remark Stickers in Lax.

Halloween

         Talk about a busy holiday!! 

Decorations: 5 carved pumpkins, 3 hand-painted mini pumpkins, a giant spider complete with web, strings of ghosts and pumpkins, a screaming banshee and multiple strings of orange pumpkinish Mickey heads

Costumes: Harry Potter, Batman, Sleeping Beauty and Ariel by day/Mulan by night

        

Food: 48 mini chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and orange sprinkles 

Giveaways: 195 chocolate bars and 160 mini containers of play-doh

 Events: 1 elementary school concert, 1 preschool party complete with concert, pumpkin carving and goodies, 1 Halloween party for family at night (well, a sort of party — EVERYONE comes over to my place to go trick-or-treating and to have pizza!)

 Okay, I’m now officially pooped.  I’ve been up since 7am this morning when I had to get up and ice the cupcakes — not to mention that I was up late last night baking and making goodie bags until 2am!  BUT it was such a wonderful Halloween.  The girls really enjoyed dressing up all day, and being even more “princessy” than usual, everyone LOVED Wil’s very expensive Batman costume (I almost died when I found out how expensive it was…but that’s another story) since he wore it to both kid’s schools today.

 Hope everyone else had a safe but very spooky and fun Halloween!
