Jeepers Creepers

Good morning! Fall is definitely in the air here in Tennessee. I love the cool mornings and evenings. There is just enough chill in the air to be cool, but not quite enough coolness to need a jacket or sweater yet.  I love this time of year, probably more than any other. For one thing, I know that  Halloween is coming! I love looking in all the stores at all the Halloween goodies. I do have to restrain myself though because I already have a ton of decorations. I haven't found anything this year that I just to have, but I found a couple of interesting things after Halloween last year on sale that I will be putting out for the first time this year. 

I make almost as many Halloween inspired cards as Christmas cards. This card uses and image from Simply Betty Stamps called Louie Vampire. He is colored with Copics and I used paper from my stash, a border from K&Co. and the sentiment is from a wooden stamp that I have had forever that I just love. I am entering this card into the Anything Goes Challenge on the Simply Challenged Challenge blog.

Thanks for visiting with me today, have a great day!!

Simply Challenged Betty Challenge

Hello! I hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine was pretty great, I spent some time canning, which I love to do. I made two batches of blueberry jam and two batches of an orange cranberry spread. This is the first year that I have done any canning since Kip and I got married and I forgot how much I loved doing it. Our kitchen is on the very small side which is kind of limiting, but I decided I was going to make it work somehow this year.

Now on to my card! I decided to play along with the challenge on the Simply Challenged blog. We were challenged by Betty herself to make a project using one of the Betty images. I love this image, maybe because it reminds me of my morning face and clutching a mug of coffee. I wish I looked that good in the mornings though!! I used Morning Betty from Simply Betty Stamps, image was colored with Copics, paper is Basic Gray and buttons are American Crafts.

Thanks for dropping by today!
