Blog Love

Just stopping in to show all of my followers some blog hopping love! I may appear MIA for a bit but I have been busy digging into a multiple of crafts! I cannot show you just yet, what I have been working on because they are all for the various crafty swaps I have joined and my recipients cannot see what I have made till they receive  the items or that would kill the element of the surprise! 

I have joined two card swaps at the Paper Digital Art Center with the peeps in the House Mouse group, I just love those little mieces to pieces! I do ! 

I stopped along the way to my favorite cooking and baking challenge website called Daring Cooks. I participated in the most recent baking challenge making Chimney Cake. Please hop on over to my cooking blog at Aunt B's Cookin' see what messes I make in the kitchen.

On Ravelry, a site for the yarn enthusiasts of all kinds. I joined a 12" square block crochet a long. I have been a tad behind on those squares so I have whipped up April & May just yesterday to be exact! I will post pics later. At the end of the year I will put all the squares together and Afghan 2014 complete!

I couldn't stop there. No, no, no, I joined a few crochet groups on Facebook. Oh yes I did! We are also having fun crocheting a square and mailing to our swap partners every month. #2 Afghan of the year will be complete by the beginning of 2015. 

We also swap other items every month of various kinds but all are crochet. And how could I forget, the temperature scarf we have been working on and swapping every month for everyone to add their temps based on a color chart for temperatures. It is is so colorful I look forwrd to getting mine at the end of year and seeing the colors from everyone around the nation!

With all of the crochet projects I have been getting myself into, I have picked up a few customers along the way requesting crochet items! It couldn't get any better than this! Or can it? I hope to find out! Stay tuned!

S & R's SEPTEMBER BLOG HOP

WELCOME TO THE SEPTEMBER BLOG HOP!

“Haunted Hop”

Hi everyone!
 Thanks for playing along in our September blog hop!

 The Blog Hop with Sean and Regina is featuring cards and sentiments celebrating HALLOWEEN this month! Halloween was always such a fun, spooky holiday growing up! I remember the excitement building up to pick out our costumes  and then the fun school Halloween parties to the furious finale….trick or treating! Then the late night sugar rush from eating the loads of candy you struggled to carry home. Good times! There are more great times to be had this Halloween, how is that you ask? Keep Reading!

 Join us on our haunting hop! Each host/hostess will have a card creation posted that is his/her representation of what HALLOWEEN means to them. 

OUR BLOG HOP SPONSOR! 

Scrapbook Stamp Society is our blog hop sponsor! The overall winner will receive digi’s from our sponsor. Please visit them at http://scrapbookstampsociety.com/index.php?!

CARDS SAMPLES FOR OUR BLOG HOPPERS! 

Happy Halloween Card 1
For this card I used a Stampin Up Bat punch, Martha Stewart Punch for the blood, Sentiment Anita Be Stampin, Cuttlebug Haunted House Embossing Folder, and a rubber wood mounted Mummy stamp

Happy Halloween Card2
For this card I crop lifted off the internet I used a tan card, attached strips of white torn paper till it looked like a mummy and added googley eyes! I thought it was a great simple way to make a Halloween card that I just had to share!

My favorite part of Halloween was the candy. I remember wearing a boys costume one year by the time my mother took us shopping for costumes all that were left were the unwanted costumes. I was He-Man that year. Most houses had no clue I was a girl till I turned around and they seen my long blonde locks of hair. I am sure being a "girly" girl, I wasn't to happy at the time but you do what you have to in order to get lots of goodies!
