BOO 2

Here are my jack-o-lanterns all lit up!
SPONGEBOB WITCH ON A BROOM
And here's little Meika in her "Trick Or Treat" costume!

Here she is at the door., waiting to see the kiddies outside!

Well, I think Halloween trick-or-treaters are all gone home. No more knocks on the door. Oh, my younger son went out but only for about an hour. He was never really into trick-or-treating for long periods of time. Some kids knock on every door in their community and then their parents will put them in a car and take them to another community to go a-knocking. Can you say "greedy"!!!! I seriously think it is! And the parents are just as bad or worst!
Well, times go back tonight. It's a little after 9:30. Should I do some cards? I don't know...

BOO to you!

Happy Halloween, everyone!!!

I don't think my boys are going trick-or-treating this year.Too old for it now :O( So no pics of little boys dressed in their costumes, whaaaa...

But I have a little puppy who has a bit of a costume to wear.I'll get a pic of her later this evening to post. I bet she's gonna go crazy this evening with all the little ones (and not-so-little, sometimes grown adults!!!) trick-or-treating. Yeah, ADULTS!!! And they aren't adults who are going around with their little ones! They are out to get treats for themselves. They don't get much from me! One teeny candy! To me, that's totally weird!

Anyway, Digital Delights has a FREEBIE for you here at Scrapbook News and Reviews Card Universe.You''ll have to sign up but it's easy. If you're a part of the Paper Craft Planet, the freebie's there as well.

Here's my layout for SOUP OF THE DAY Saturday at Sisterhood of Scrap.

I'll leave you with a quote:

Celebrate You

Today at The Character Cafe Challenge Blog, the challenge is to use Halloween paper and glitter but not make a Halloween card! Here's mine!
And it's perfect for our Sisterhood of Scrap Monday challenge as well, to create something that really glitters!
CELEBRATE YOU
Oh, and I dressed up today for school. Here's what I went like! I didn't have a particular costume or character in mind.I just bought a wig and plastered make-up on myself! The kids thought it was hilarious!!!Have a fun Friday night everyone.Stay safe!!!

Some BOYS/MEN cards...

There's a blog out there in blogland created just to show you MEN and BOY cards, called CARDS FOR MEN. So, the owner's having a DT call and she wants us to send her our blog address to see our MALE cards. Now, my cards are all over the place so I decided to create a post with some of my most recent male cards so she can see them in one place as opposed to looking through post after post to find them.

Thanks, Donna, for the opportunity to apply for your DT. Sorry to all of you who are followers and have already seen these cards.Hope you like seeing them again, though!!! :O)

A reminder to me:

My Scrappy Goals for 2010:

150 Layouts

60 Christmas cards

120 Other Occasion cards

60 Altered items
