How can this Ghost be Spooky

 they have given away a free digi
called "Fall Ghost" for you to make something with.
Hannah made hers on Friday and I entered her into the Challenge
I am showing mine today
here it is
How cute are they !!
I used white card blank not sure what size now
 then cut two black panels
I then layered them with Bright Orange card
I coloured the Ghosts slightly round the edges and did a little shading
not sure if you can see on the foto though
I then did their patches to match with the card.
The spiders are peels off's that I have had in my stash for years !!!
The sentiment is hand written.


I am also entering it into
One stitch at a time - Use a digi

Is your Sunday...

A day of rest... Or is it hectic like mine...
Be honest do you with you could just chill all day
Or do you like it busy busy !!!!
I often think I will relax with Paul...
but no
Today we have painted the front gate...
(even though we move out in 3 months)
 and I have to say looks so much better
then I have done some general cleaning
Made Stew for tea..which smells lovely
it is in the oven slow cooking,
Dumplings to pop on the top half hour before.
(the last box of Atora Suet used up then)

I have cards made and ready to show, 
although I am in the living room not at the PC,
so they will have to wait until either later
when I can sneak into the craft room
or tomorrow when I once again sneak in 
lock the door and be in my little place I call...Quiet
on my own doing what I love doing best
playing with anything related to paper and card.

I know just how this little water melon feels
this is me when I cant get in my craft room...lol

I am going to quietly sneak away and get some 
paper to play with while Paul and Hannah play on the PS3.
Have a lovely sunday what is left of it
I will be hopping by soon xx

Halloween..

While I have been making the Homework book for Hannah
Hannah has been making something Halloween
they are giving you an image Fall ghost to make a project with
I printed nine and coloured six.. so Hannah asked if she could make something
I thought Why not..
So I was working one end of the desk
and Hannah on the rest...lol
this is what she has made
and it is rather cute
A bag for a few Sweets..
She found some bright orange card in my stash
( I didn't even know I had this)
and made the cone.
Then she attached the Ghosts  
and peel off spiders.

It isn't very strong but I think she has done well

Even down to the picture taking.

I am not sure if I am allowed to enter her into the competition
but I am doing... (fingers crossed its ok)
If I shouldn't then I am sorry
I will be making something spooky later also

Thanks for stopping by xx

So I have made Hannah a homework notebook
So she can write down what homework she has

The image I have used is by
Linda Tieu
( I think )
Here is what I made
I started with a plain lined book and took the cover off

I then made a new cover with card
and covered it with paper
then after a little bit of cutting and layering 
I ended up with
I also put a small envo - pocket on the back
so Hannah can put letters from school in it
Hannah really likes it and wants it NOW
But I have put it away ready for school.
Anyway time to go again
