I finally got to use my FREE set " Because of you " that I won at regionals after playing family fued .. I really dont know what to think of this card But thought I would post it anyway since I have nothing else at this time on my camera . I use elegant eggplant CS and my fabulous oval scallop punch , and coluzzle , The white gel pen was used on the side border and for the dots on my scallop punch . I also use the scallop oval punch for the little tag in the boytom right corner .. I just cut the ends off the oval punch and used as a mat under the saying " Happier because of you ".. I used DTP for the main base of card in elegant eggplant and used a glue dot to hold the GG ribbon behind the small tag .
We havent done the trick or treating thing in years so we went to dinner and a movie for our yearly trick or treat time . We went to see the Prestige..OH my this movie was GREAT so many twists and turns I do believe we must see it again to totally understand the plot But even so Me and Hubby have different views on how they did what they did.. It really makes you wonder how writters of these types of movies keep everything stright , when we as the movie goers get a little confused.. I think this way about LOST also such brillant minds to think of such a Awesome plot .. speaking of Lost Its that time again ..YAHOO!
Thank you all for your emails and posts about my Mom upcoming eye surgery .. She was in the office for maybe 5 mins all they did was take photos of her eye with a fancy machine Her surgery is set for Nov 9th she will get the call about the time of surgery But our understanding is her surgery will only be 10 mins But she has a 3 hour recovery time on the 9th. I keep telling her how exciting it will be to actually be able to see great when she stamps with me Hee! Hee!
Today I have a stamping day ahead of me I have lots to prepare for mainly my stampers club I need to make out project worksheet and also pre cut everything and then squeeze in some fun stamping for myself and my craft fair .. My Hostess Jenny has requested a gift card holder for the other M&T on Friday night along with the Santa wrappers that I decided to have them all make also .. Now I just need to come up with a gift card holder design , pretty sure it will be a Christmas theme Just not sure yet .. .( Thanks Gwen baby ) Gwen posted a super cute gift card holder that I am totally casing from her Just need to come up with a different stamp design since I dont have the set she used .. anywho .. thats the plan for today .. I also want to finish up my ATC cards for my SCS swap I am in , and get those mailed out to Jen before the end of the week also . Need to hit the dollar store for those acrylic frames for my post it note holders for my craft fair also sometime this week.
It also is getting very exciting on EBay with the Chevelle that we have on there we are down to the last 2 days and 10 hours will keep you posted...
Until later ... Happy Stampin!

This egg plant looks like velvet! Did you do anything special to it? I love how you placed the flowers in the ovals.
