It's The Most Wonderful Time of The Year 2

**** HUGE HALLOWEEN GIVE AWAY... CLICK HERE!!!!****

The Halloween season has just begun and ALREADY I'm showered with gifts!!! NOW, can you see why I love Halloween so much?!?! And I know some of THE MOST TALENTED people!!! So pictured above are some of the things that I've received so far with a special "Thanx You Guys" for their wonderful gifts

Dana, thanks for the wonderful mini album. It is SO AMAZING!!! I placed it right next to the mini album you gave to me last year... on the shelf with my favorite things!!!

Sandy, thanks for cutting those wonderful dancing Halloween images for me. I LOVED your tutorial on the Zing... I think I'm sold!!!

Cindy, thanks for the OH-SO-CUTE Halloween card! You and those Tim Holtz dies... hahahahaha! I love it!

Barb, thanks for the cookie jar. What an AMAZING gift and ingenious too!!! All the dry ingredients decoratively put together in that wonderful glass jar with the directions attached to the lid. You know I love the handmade stuff!!!

And finally, thanks to my new friend Sandy. I met her just once and she gave me that ADORABLE Halloween jelly bean filled tube with holder. SO CRAFTY!!!

Now, I have to say, I AM missing a wonderful gift I received from Marijo at the Halloween Cricut Swarm. She gave me the CUTEST goodie bag she created with her Cricut, however, it was filled with candy and suspiciously turned up missing. The entire household claims that a ghost took it, so I called out to the "spirits" to return the bag unharmed and no questions would be asked about the missing candy. Let's see if the "spirits" are willing. Luckily though, you can spy Marijo's spooktacular goodie bag HERE.

Clearly with all the generosity around me this time of year, you can see why it's my favorite time of year. High Fives to all the gals who showered me with gifts! Halloween is just the funnest time of year!!! It is definitely a time to celebrate.... but there will be more on that in the coming posts. Stay tuned!!!

Wish You A Scary Christmas

Ok... this the last challenge over at The Burtonesque Dolls for 2010!!! Using any Nightmare before Christmas Images Create your best Christmas Project with that Burton Flair! This weeks winner will win... Three Exclusive Nightmare Before Christmas Images from Simply Betty Stamps . Oh man.... that's a HUGE prize! Head over to The Burtonesque Dolls and check out what the other awesome design team members created for inspiration. As for this one.... I KNEW I wanted to use the speckled grey cardstock for this one. I love how it resembles the granite of a gravestone. That's pretty Burtonesque, don't you think? I also found an awesome Engravers Font, but for some reason couldn't get it uploaded to my font folder. Too soon before Christmas for me to want to deal with glitches, so I just settled for an easy holiday font that I already had available. But for the record... the "Happy Holidays" in a tombstone font would have "NAILED" this project!!! Huh... I...

RIP My Friend

I think this is what drowning feels like. I lost a friend yesterday. And I'm afraid that I am just having a very hard time finding the words to express what the world lost. I'm having a hard time KNOWING she's gone. I just can't believe that Trisha Giallella died yesterday. I've known Trish for a large chunk of my life; she was the sister of my sister's ex husband. But for all the years that I knew her, I never REALLY knew her until very recently. Oh sure, over the years I would listen in awe at all her stories.... stories of making movies in Hollywood, the wild parties and dating Rick James. To a young girl of 15, those stories seemed like something from TV itself and far removed from my own piddly little life. The fact that she even shared her stories with me sent me into a stuper. I always had stars in my eyes when I listened to Trish talk, she was so glamorous and very, very tough... very passionate and good at "living". I...
