Halloween is coming!

Halloween has to be my favorite holiday, not sure why. But Fall is my favorite season for sure and Halloween seems to be the door to the Holiday season.

One thing I really like is the old vintage postcards for Halloween. The images are so innocent and capture the spirit of the season, the essence of Fall.

I wanted to share some of these great images and items you can find on Etsy. Makes me want to start my Halloween decorating today! I should at least wait till Oct. 1, right?

To visit these great sellers visit my Treasury HERE.

Brides, Brides everywhere!

I have been having alot of fun making these "Will you be my Bridesmaid" cards for Etsy. The fun part is customizing them for people. It has also been fun to rediscover colors like "chartreuse" and "tangerine".

Take a look and let me know what you think. I am open to suggestions. To see all I have available for sale click HERE.

PDCC42 and Etsy Inspired 101 combined challenge

This is the second week I have combined these two challenges together. It seems to double my inspiration. So thank you to both Play Date Cafe and Etsy Inpired Blogs for hosting these super fun challenges.

My Card:


The Play Date Cafe Challenge this week is this great color scheme. (Love the photo too, but who need THAT many camels?)


For Etsy Inspired the inspiration is this adorable shop called Lover Dovers. I love the retro deer in the christmas apron. The Snow White inspired apron reminded me of Snow White in the woods with all the woodland creatures...



Speaking of Christmas.... I am having a summer clearance in MY Etsy shop to clear out some of my Christmas stock. Please take a look!


Check out all the other great entries on both blogs. Thanks for looking, your comments are always welcome!

CAS - tastic and PDCC 41 Combined Challenge

Before I get into the challenge I am hosting my first GIVEAWAY on my blog! Not many people have entered so you still have a great chance to win. The prize is a card package from my Etsy shop.

Now on to the challenge:
Since I am all about foxes right now, I had to use a fox for this card. I combined two challenges this time. I very excited about both.

For the CAS-tastic challenge (see their super cute blog HERE). They had 4 cards for inspiration (so hard to choose!). I chose this one by their design team member Maylee, she the inspiration card HERE.


For The Play Date Cafe Challenge (see their awesome blog HERE) the challenge is to use this great color palette.



So here is my card!!


Thanks for peeking!
