Halloween Happiness

I had to share with you all a couple of the Halloween things that made me happy this week. 

Monika, one of my downline, came to scrapbooking class and share with me her "Frank".  He is so cute and made from the Big Shot envelope die, some circle punches used both full circles and half circles, she added a marker smile and stitching to complete the card. 

I loved him he makes me smile. 

I also loved getting out my Halloween decorations this year and fanning out my paper pumpkins I made last year and hanging them up.  They made me smile.  I loved how easy they are to make.  You take 6 1" x 12" pieces of designer Series papers punch a hole in the middle at 6" ( I use the crop-a-dial for this and do them all at one time) and then punch a hole on each end.  Feed ribbon through the middle hole and then up through both end.  Tie knots to make the shape of the pumpkin you want and fan out the paper piece.  I loved how well they stored last year because I just slipped the paper piece back together so they could be fanned out again this year.

Hi Wendy,

It's me - "Frank" makes me smile too!
We'll be making him at my Stamper's Club meeting on Friday - I think he will be a big hit.

I'm enjoying your blog.
