Birthday Party continued

The kids had such a great time at the party. They painted pumpkins, bobbed for apples, and jumped on the trampoline.

Getting Ready for Christmas

Hello and Happy Columbus Day Weekend to you all!!!!

I just wanted to share a little bit of weekend inspiration with you. This was one of the cards Stampin Up! had at the home office in their show rooms highlighting their new items for this year. I love the Santa he is a rub-on can you believe it?

I went Christmas shopping this weekend with the girls. Yes, for those of you who know me well I am poistive that you are not surprised. This is even a little late for me to get started. I was behind the curve but am now ahead of the curve.:) After this weekend and the light at the end of the tunnel of parties. I will finish Stefania's party this weekend. We are having it next Sunday. Then I will have some goodie bags to make for Makayla and Aiden's Halloween party. Then it will be full speed ahead Christmas. I can't wait. I got my radio back just in time to start putting the Christmas music on to get into the mood to start all the festivities. :)

Enough for now I have to run my darling husband is putting in a new patio for me and I am going to help.

Here are the rest of them. We are off to Virginia to finish working on Angie's house. I will post more later. Hope you all have a super fabulous weekend.

We went to a new photo studio (for us) and had Faith's picture done and here are some of the shots. We were so pleased with them. They were very reasonable. Portrait Innovations. I will post some more samples in a minute.

Stefania's Invitation

Good Evening.

I am about to buckle down and watch the Vice Presedential Debates but in the meantime I just finished Stefania's invitations to the party October 19th.

I used Chipboard and Crystal Effects on the leaf in the front and the paper is the Bella Rose paper.

Well it's getting close to time. When I finish the rest of the table setting I will try and post it.

Have a great night.

Stefania's Thanksgiving Tablescapes

Good evening all!!! Today is my BIRTHDAY!!!! I took the day off and meant to do something fabulous. Instead I worked on Stefania's party. I had the ideas in my head and couldn't focus on fabulous till I got them out so here are some of the things that will be going on the tablescape for her party.

1st Pic: Pumpkin made like the ornaments I stuck the leftover "broom" handle from last month's party as the stem and used old olive craft ink on the chipboard for the leaves. Twine works great as "ribbon" on the fall scenery.
2nd Pic is the napkin rings that I did with chipboard and the new fall pack from the mini.
3rd Pic: are wine charms made with last year's leaf set and shrinky dink. I have been really into shrinkydink lately:) I will post more as I get done with them. I am close to finishing preparations for this party. I am going to finish the invitations tommorow and will post them. I am off to bed. Have a great night's sleep.
