Fall Treat Boxes
I absolutely love these fall treat boxes! My favorites are the scarecrows but he pilgrims are sweet too! I will be using them for the Scrap Chick harvest Link Party. I usually have 25 or 30 for Thanksgiving Dinner. I think I will place a treat box at each place setting for my guests. I will also use it for the Incy Wincy's Give Thanks challenge as well.

Birthday Cake Mouse
My Best friends grand-daughter has a birthday this week. There are several blog's also celebrating birthday's. I love Meljen Design's Birthdaycake mouse so for their number challenge I added a birthday number candle. I will also be using it for the silhouette online challenge and the Crafty catz challenge

My sister found another new site for digi stamps. We loved this darling little penguin immediately. So I made this card for the challenge at Imagine that and I will also be using it for Sketch Saturday's drawing as well.

For Digi darla's Copycat challenge I decided to put this fine looking ship in a porthole with a few nautical stripes and a map. It will make a great masculine card for one of my beach friends.

Claudia Loves Christmas
Little Miss Muffett's challenge this month is Christmas. I simply love Claudia! I don't have a lot of my Christmas stamping things out yet but I used what I could get my hands on right now.
Card with Tag
For the Eureka Stamps Tag Challenge I tried to come up with a fall design but it just wasn't working for me. So I drug out a few Christmas things and this is what happened. I think it will work nicely for the challenge.

Fall
Instead of using the words in the silhouette online store I decided to build my own with their letter boxes. Then I decorated them with fall colored papers. I'm going to display them on my mantle for the fall.
Candy Corn Jar
For the Cardztv jars, jams and jellies challenge I chose this jar shaped card and added candy corn to it. I used acetate to give it that real look. Since it also has words from the Silhouette online store I will use it in the weekly challenge there as well.

Acorn Mouse
Fall is finally here and I'm ready to start all my fall cards so I chose this darling little mouse from Meljen Designs for their take 5 Challenge. I also recently tried a new set of markers from Spectrum and I really like the various shades that work together in a set. I can see it will effect my coloring style. I'm also going to be using it for the Tuesday Throw down Clean and Simple challenge.

Birthday gate fold
I didn't have a lot of time to get an entry in the QKR stampedes flying high with balloons challenge so I cut this simple gate fold card with balloons with my silhouette. I think it turned out nicely or something fast and simple.
Christmas Pelican
For the Impression Obsession Things that Fly challenge I decided to try this cute little Pelican. I stamped him three times and cut the stumps so I could dimensionalize them. Then I added a few sparkles and some puff paint for the snow. This stamp is J220.

Football easel Card
For the Crafty Catz Men and Boys Challenge I just had to make this football easel card. Its that time of year when we all become football widows. I wish my guys could go to a game every Sat. because that makes more "play" time for me. LOL. I will also be using this card for the Craft Spot technique challenge. I simply love the print and cut feature on my Silhouette. It makes cutting out digital stamps so much easier and neater.
Apple Lizzie
For Whimsy Doodles back to school challenge I chose Apple Lizzie and added a blackboard. She is just too cute!.

Toasted marshmellows
For the Cardztv I made this fire pit card with marshmellows. It was a little more plain than I wanted but I guess my creativeness is worn out today!! I may try to add something to it tomorrow but this is it for now.
Heidi 2
A few days ago I was introduced to Little Miss Muffett Stamps. I love some of her images. This little Heidi is one of my quick favorites so I used her in the Repeat Impressions sketch challenge.

For the Silhouette Challenge and the Silhouette online store challenge I made this beehive card and added the Buzz to it. I gave it to my husband to remind him it was time to rob the bee hives again.

Pick Up Truck
I am very sorry Whimsical Designs will no longer be having their challenges. I tried to think what to make for the Something New Something Old challenge. I pulled out some of my oldest stamp sets. I need a guy card later this week so I decided to use this truck and for the new I used the striped paper I just bought last week.
Recess Time
For the Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons Back to School Challenge I downloaded their chalk board and wrote my favorite school time on it!
Apples
The challenge this week at Cardztv is Harvest. I think this really red card with apples is quite a harvest! I will also be using it in the Silhouette Online fall Challenge and the Little Scrap Pieces anything goes challenge.

Pink One Layer
The Challenge at Our Daily Bread is a One Layer card. It was very hard to not add embellishments or layers. I've loved this sentiment and thought id also use it in the tender thoughts challenge at Eureka Stamps.
Barn
My daughter really loves horses so I just had to make her this Barn step card. It took a lot of time to get it sized right but I really like it! I will be using it for the QKR stampede challenge as well as the Little Scrap Pieces challenge and the Parade Your Crafts Challenge. I will also enter it into the Cameo Creations Challenge.

Acorn card
For the Crafty Catz pleated ribbon challenge
I decided to get started with my Fall cards. I had this acorn left from last year and decided it was time to give him a home. I wasn't completely satisfied with the way he turned out so I might add something to him later but he will work for now!

Green Sunflower

Graduation
For the C.r.a.f.t. Challenge I decided to get a jump on the graduation cards I will need in the fall! Got several made then realized I put the wrong date on them! Oh well that's easy enough to change.

Black and Yellow Get Well
My Aunt Lila had knee replacement surgery on Wed. so I made her this card. Then thought I might as well use it for the Cardztv color pop challenge as well as the Craft Spot get well challenge.
Pink Explosion Cake Box
For the Silhouette Online I had to decide which shape to use. I had been wanting to make this cake box for a friend's birthday so decided now was the time. It was really easy to cut and put together. I will be making more of these.
