Trick or Treat (or whatever)

Hello crafty friends!

Boy, it's been almost a month since I've blogged! Hubs and I went on vacation from August 19th

through September 3rd, driving back to Illinois and Wisconsin to visit with

both our families. In there was a 50th Wedding Anniversary party, my 

niece got married, and my great niece and nephew (twins) had a party to 

celebrate their 5th birthday. Lots to do!

Most of my posts from August until the beginning of September were scheduled.

This is a rare post: it will go live as soon as I hit the publish button - not scheduled!

While on vacation, I was able to get a little coloring in.

(I can't leave on vacation without SOME type of craft supplies, so I took

my pencils and markers along with a bunch of images to color)

Since it's getting on to my favorite holiday - Halloween, I took

along some Grumplings in Costume stamps. Here's one of

the images made into a card:

 and the inside:

This grumpy cat-o-lantern was colored with PrismaColor pencils on kraft card stock.

I used a Faber-Castell PITT artist pen to re-draw the outline, since

the pencils tend to make them fade.

You know what I realized? I don't have a Halloween

themed embossing folder. Not one.

I need to fix that.

And I will. (wink)

It was great to get back to my craft room again. So I'll

be making more cards soon.

But not sure when.

Hubby and I just started binge watching Game of Thrones so....

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a fantastic day!
