Reverse Confetti SFYTT #8

Happy Monday!
Hope you had a lovely weekend. On this front we had another milestone. My son turned 19 on Sunday. I guess he is a full fledged adult now. I've said it before but where did the time go. It was strange not to see him on his birthday, but we did talk to him a couple times. Apparently he celebrated his birthday last night with friends and since he is 19 he can legally have a drink in Canada. Big head today. LOL

I have a card for the current Reverse Confetti Sketch For You To Try.

I am also submitting this to the Simon Says Monday Challenge.

Happy {Melanchony} Halloween!

Happy Halloween!

Why melancholy?

Last night after carving the pumpkins, my daughter said she felt really sad because she is not going out 'trick or treating' this year and that she never would again. Yes she is growing up, she forgets that as a child she did half the street, had enough and came home and didn't eat most of her candy, that last year she went out with a few girlfriends and couldn't wait to get home to hand candy out to the little ones, that now she is able to drive a car, that tomorrow night she is going to watch her boyfriends hockey game. She will 'trick or treat' one day again with her own little ones--but not for a very very long time! Maybe then I will be a bit melancholy.

So I made up a treat bag for her using a paper bag and fun stamps from Reverse Confetti.

Cardstock: White, Orange Zest (Papertrey Ink)

Stamps: Spooky Cuties, Spooky Sentiments, Forever Fall (Reverse Confetti)

Ink: True Black, Orange Zest (Papertrey Ink)

CCC #66, 'Fetti Finds, CAS-ual Fridays, Simon Says Wednesday Challenge

It's time for this week's CASology Cue Card!
This week's fun October cue word is:

This week I created a window card using a frame created using Lil
' Inkers circle stitched dies. I love the look of the double stitched frame. When you create a window on your card you ar really decorating both the outside and the inside of your card at the same time. That combined with the frame adds interest without bulk.

Once again because I used some fun Reverse Confetti stamps for my card, I am submitting it to this week's 'Fetti Find Link List. I am also submitting this to Simon Says Wednesday Challenge use a Rubber or Clear Stamp and CAS-ual Friday's In Stitches challenge. #117.

Happy Fall!

It's time for this week's CASology Cue Card, this week's cue is:

The days of summer are gone and shorts are replaced with jeans and sweaters in the evenings. The air has that cool crisp feeling of autumn. Last week it was summer here and now with just a flick of a switch is is over. I love summer but when fall arrives I remember how much I love the fall. So this week's cue is perfect.
