Happy Boo to you ... I just love these little spiders on this card .. I used the Booglie eyes set once again. I stamped them on the orchild opulence and green galore and then filled in their eyes with the white gel pen and then colored them in with the matching SU! marker .. pretty cute HUH? and once again I got Brad happy with this card . I don't know what it is lately with the Brads .. But I am really digg'n it .What I am not digg'n is having bees in my basement .. And yes I have been stung twice in the middle of the night in my bed while I was sleeping ( Once on my chest and once on my leg OUCHY!!!) .. Now that's Creepy HUH? ( just thinking of it gives me the willies .. YOU too right ? ) What's really weird is that the whole Time Rich was home we didn't see not even 1 single bee then 2 days after he leaves I get stung again this time on my leg ( Yup while I was sleeping again in my bed ) .. He looked everywhere to see where they are coming in at BUT nothing .. I thought for sure through the back door But we haven't used that door in over a month now .. I am a bit confused .. and I think Rich thinks I am nuts .. Maybe I should start saving the dead bees I kill to prove I am not Crazy .. The only good thing is winter is coming and hopefully they will hibernate really soon .. They do that right ? Yesterday between church services My mom and I set bombs off to kill those bees and also when around the outside of my house and sprayed .. Good news I was able to sleep in my bed without getting stung last night Praise God . I just pray It took care of the problem ..
You wouldn't believe it BUT I did find another bee ( a DEAD one ) in my bed when I stripped the bed sheets off to wash them later yesterday.. Yes I have a photo LOOK the only good thing about this one is that he was Dead .
Rich Update :
He made it back to his Camp yesterday around 4 :30pm our time he said he was relieved he made it back and has familiar faces again .. Thank you Lord for getting him back safely
Have a Fabulous day ..
Until later ... Happy Stampin!!
Dawn,
I had a friend who had bees in her ceiling near a vent. I can see how she handled the problem. If they are in the wall, I am not sure if it would get cold enough to kill them.
I will find out more as soon as I can get in touch with her. Thankful to hear Rich got back safely!

Good Morning Dawn!
So happy to hear that Rich made it safe and sound back to camp and some friends!
Oh my....bees...in your house AND you are getting stung while sleeping! YIKES! That is horrible hun! Hope you can figure out where they are coming from. Here we have hornets bad and they are really dumb at this time of year. If there was ANY reason to hope for snow it would because of the hornets...LOL
Let us know what happens with your bee prob!
That card is soooooooooooooooo adorable! Love those colours together for Halloween!!
Have a great day!
Hugs
DAWN

Glad to hear Rich made it back safely to camp! Those bees are sure a pain, we had them in our ceiling tiles once and we ended up bombin the house and moving the ceiling tiles so the fumes could get up in there to try and kill the bees, though we ended up having to have it done professionally. Hope you get rid of the bee problem~

Dawn: I had a bee problem similar to what you have. We would see 1 or 2 then wouldn't see them for a couple of days, then you'd see a couple come flying again. We finally called an exterminator and they had built a nest in the walls of the family room. They came flying out (outside) in the hundreds when he sprayed. I forget how he got the spray in the walls. It cured the problem and I don't think one of those bombs you buy would have solved the problem. Love your cards.

Very cute card! I need to get that set out and use it-I haven't yet this year! Need a shoebox swap for Friday so you may have just given me some inspiration!!!
Bummer on the bees, sorry I have no suggestions!

I've had that problem myself a few years back & had to call an exterminator. The bees made a nest in my walls, they made a hole between the chimney & shingles outside & when the queen bee went inside the others followed. There was a black cloud on my chimney, no lie, (that was the bees on top of one another) waiting their turn to get into the walls. The exterminator said it's not unusual to see about 10,000 - 30,000 bees in a colony thats right you read it right. It's a long story but that is the jest of it. So good luck Dawn, I know what its like, although I've never been stung...knock on wood!

Those spiders are probably my favorite spiders. They are just too cute to be creepy! I love the fun colors you've used on your adorable card!
I sure hope the bees are taken care of! I'm also very happy to hear that Rich got back safely!
Hugz!

What a cute card. Those spiders are too cute.

Thanks for letting us know your hubby arrived safely !!! Hey...about the bees....we've had a TERRIBLE time with hornets these last several weeks. Our one daughter Brooke got bit twice in two days. Her poor arm swelled up about 30% and it took several doses of Benadryl to bring it down. Be careful, sweetie or should I say......BEE careful :)
