Fall is coming...

...and it's very hard to believe that Summer ends tomorrow, but I can say I also am enjoying the nice fresh dry air.  It's so much nicer to have all the windows open and feel the cool crisp air.

    And with Fall in mind, I created two really fun cards this morning and both were inspired by a new sketch from the Stars & Stamps Blog.  I also want to remind everyone that OWH is having a wonderful birthday celebration and there are many wonderful challenges and fabulous sponsors who have donated images and card ideas throughout the month.  Please be sure to stop by today and you'll be very happy to find some super cute Freebie images, that were donated by Heather Dennis. There is at least one new challenge every day, so please stop by the blog daily too see what is new.  

   The sketch I used for my cards is from Challenge # 35, which you can find HERE!  I also copied it over here for you to see.  You can find a new Sketch every Sunday over at the Stars and Stamps blog and they are all fabulous.







    I chose to make very cute and fun Halloween Cards and both of my images are from Bugaboo Stamps and part of the new September Stamp Club kit, which I found over at the store this weekend.  I loved the stamps and the price is wonderful too.


    In addition to the OWH Sketch Challenge, I am also submitting my cards to these new challenges:
   
     *Scripture: Ecclesiastes 3:1 "To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven." 

    And now I am off to visit my groups and then work on a few more cards.   I hope you are all enjoying the last few days of Summer and looking forward to Fall and the Holiday Season.

A Little About Me

My photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, a chronic illness I lived with for over 18 years. In, March of 2015, I was diagnosed with Stage IV Lung Cancer which had spread to my brain. I am fighting hard to win this battle and determined to beat it. I have a amazing Oncology Team, along with the LOVE and SUPPORT of all my family and friends! I am a Mom to two grown sons, Alex is now 25 and married to Acacia, my wonderful new "Daughter" and the parents to my precious Grand-Daughter Harper, and Brian amazingly is 30 and now lives in San Diego. My boys are the greatest loves of my life. Hubby, me and our two "Pups", Skye and Zeva, two adorable Chiweenies we rescued in 2012, all live very happily in a tiny coastal town in Massachusetts. We lost our dear "Scoutie", a Purebred Dachshund, in April of 2015. I still miss him and will forever cherish his memory. I am an avid card-maker and totally love every minute I can spend in my craft room. It's become my passion, a wonderful way to relax and is my form or "therapy".
