HAUL TIME - Tim Holtz + G45 Project

 Good morning, everyone!

I'm deep in cleaning mode today and finishing the bee journals - finally! Will have them to show on Friday.

In the mean time, here's my latest haul video. All about Timmy! I usually order his new Halloween stuff and this year is no exception. The only difference is instead of ordering through Simon Says, I caught an excellent 40% off Sale at JoAnn's plus $2.99 flat rate shipping! Whooo Hooo! JoAnn stores are the only brick n mortar to carry his line this year.

I have more coming as I've put in an order through Spectrum Art Creations during a LIVE sale. They'll have more on Saturday - yay!!! There's still a couple of things I'm missing.  PLUS I think I'll find some at the 75% off sale at Hobby Lobby this week. I have a good idea from one of the managers when to expect the mark down. Their truck just got there yesterday and they are short staffed. So there will be a second Timmy haul video in the future.

In the mean time, here's where I'm at so far:

I also have a Graphic 45 challenge that I want to enter. I'm pushing for end of day on Thursday. I got the idea from Jan Hobbins' December Daily box. She is one of Tim's makers and I just love the idea of a vignette box with the file tabs for each day.  You can see her game plan HERE.  I want to do one using the Graphic 45 CHARMED collection. 

I'll be back on Friday to show off the bee journal as well as what will be going into my shop then I'm taking a couple of weeks off. We have company coming plus I'm thinking of a short get away before Bob goes back to work.

FRIDAY FREEBIE - Card Chicks

 Good morning, everyone!

Finally back to creating. I'm hoping to have regular posts up this weekend but with Bob home a few more days and we're trying to get stuff caught up before he leaves, May not be til Tuesday next week.

In the mean time, I was the hostess for this month's CardChicks at Splitcoast. Here's my card:

Not sure why his clothes have a yellow/ celery cast. I actually used Old Olive greens in the Stampin' Blends.

I wanted to spread our wings a little so used Graphic 45 Midnight Tales for my starting point. Since not everyone is in to Halloween, I added the garden gnome to the kit and in place of ribbon, I used a strip of the Be Dazzling paper.

I also suggested they could substitute the gnome for 1 other image of their choice from their stash.

I have things on the editorial calendar for the rest of the month just not sure I'll get them here before next week. I still want to do a Scrapbook Saturday and a Sunday Sympathy... just a matter of Life interruptus and time. 

Creative Blessings!
