Hope that all of you are safe and not feeling the affects from hurricane Sandy!  Today I went to a place called Albanese Candy factory close by my home.  They always have great candies to give for Halloween and other occasions.  We are having dinner with some friends next weekend.  We call it Harvest Fest.  I wanted to take a little something so I've got some sweets to give our hostess.

                                     This is what I came up with!  Thanks for taking a look.

Authentique Paper Challenge

Hi everyone!  I just love Authentique paper line and was looking at their blog.  They have sketches for either and layout or a card.  Since I do mostly cards anymore and have plenty of their paper, I thought I'd give it a shot!  This is what I came up with.....

                     Here is the link (I hope!) to Authentique http://blog.authentiquepaper.com/
I might have to try another card for this in the next few weeks.  Give it a shot....can't hurt!  I used the 6x6 pad collection Thankful.  Thanks for stopping in.  Have a great week.

Mojo Monday 261

Hi Everyone!  Hope you are all enjoying some great fall days.  It was a warm 78 here in NW Indiana today, very windy, but a wonderful fall day.  I was off work today and was buy my local scrapbook store and stopping in to take a look.  I picked up Authentic fall line 6X6 pad.  That is what all the pattern paper is on my card that I am sharing today.  I used Tattered Leaves die to cut 2 leaves for the focal point.

I've had that nut in my stash...I'm sure I got it at Hobby Lobby last year.  I wrinkled up the leave to give it a realistic look and inked the edges too.

                                                Also added a little felt leaf and another nut! :)

                 This "Have Fun" stamp is from the dollar bin at Michael's.  I've had this for a while too.

And here is the finally look at my take on Mojo Monday 's card!  Thanks for stopping by.....oh, and I would love to hear what you think of it. :)  Thanks for taking the time to comment!!
