Halloween Blog Hop- New and Improved!

Check out the Ribbons and Buttons Blog Hop (still time to check it out and win some sweet candy! Winners chosen Sunday night)


Hi Everyone!!
Welcome to the Halloween Blog Hop!
I am so happy to be a part of this Hop creating with such talented ladies!
If you tried to Hop through the whole line up yesterday (it was complete crap wasn't it!), it should be all fixed today!
If you just happened to stop by my blog (Thanks btw!)-  make sure you go back to Angela's site to start from the beginning.  When you leave here- stop by to see everyone along the way!

Halloween is a fun time of the year for my family.  My Girls LOVE to dress up and go Trick or Treating!
Here they are one in one of their younger years:

Here they are last year:

This year has yet to be decided!

My first project was quick and easy!
Cleo's trying to spook you!

The pumpkin is an orange cardstock rossette.  The eyes, nose, and mouth were cut out- by hand (gasp!).
The ribbon "curtain" is from the Spooky Bundle by 3 Girl Jam (there's a chance to win a Cricut cartridge  when you purchase ribbon, going on through Oct. 31st!)

My second project was also a quickie!
The paper is from DCWV Ghosts and Goblins stack, and the image is $.99 Studio G stamp that I colored with Sakura gel Pens.
Super quick and super easy!

One lucky Follower will win the Spooky Bundle from 3 Girl JAM.  Just leave a comment below for your chance.  For an extra chance, check out the 3 Girl JAM site and "like" them on Facebook.

Your next stop is Patricia from Creative Diva  (Hey Girl!)
