Halloween Goodies


Wanted to share a couple of peeks of a few things I made for the Boo-tique
that I just loved!

Remember the unfinished pictures of these Spooky letters I did up last year for Amanda?
They were so fun I just had to do a couple of sets up for the boutique.  They are fun aren't they!

I was on overload the last few weeks with having company in town for the big BSU/BYU game.
Plus every Saturday morning ESPN's college game day is blasting from my family room
so I had to make some Team letters up.
These little pumpkins I think were my absolute favorite!
I love pear shaped pumpkins, they just make me happy!
My sister and I found the cutest stickers at Michael's from K&Company.
These Creepy tombstones were so fun with the crow and bat flying overhead.
Plus I found the coolest excelsior that matched graveyard grass.
I loved the lightness of papers I used on the Fall letters too.
It's funny how I am actually more inspired helping my clients with projects than anything else.
It's hard to come up with stuff sometimes and these Fall letters were inspired by
by my great friend Cary.
It's hard to believe that the next boutique is just a month away!
Over the past 4 years I have found out that I actually work best under pressure....
I guess that's a good thing!

On a really fun note~I actually took some "ME" time this week
as a couple of my friends who are master tole painters
invited me to have lessons to paint!
I made the cutest Vampire that I'll take pictures of to share with y'all.
He is so cute and not half bad for my first time painting.
I can see how it could become very addicting!
I just love Fall/Halloween crafts!
Do you?

America

I love just about anything Americana. 
When I first moved here and got to hang out with my sister Candace, 
I quickly found out she had a thing for Americana stuff. 
You could say it rubbed off on me just a tad.... 
We were constantly on the lookout for all things that were
barn red's, soft steely navy blue's, cream or resembled twine. 
I love anything primitive and folk art-ish
and when we do our bazaar each year
there ends up being a bit of it in just about everything we do.

So this year I needed to add to my Patriotic Decor a bit
 and found some fabulous paper to help me out!
I'll be teaching these letters as a class down at Paper Cottage
on the 19th of June and if I'm ambitious enough
I'll actually head over and update my Etsy shop!:)

It's been a crazy couple of weeks for me
with the unexpected back surgery for
my Superman Father who
has a really hard time accepting help. 
He's used to doing everything for everyone else
and doesn't quite know what to do when he can't. 
But for me it's a pleasure and an honor to be able
to actually help he and my Mom out. 
Now if I can just get through
the last week of school and
Kindergarten graduation......
