Boo To You...Blog Hop

Jearise from Lorby's World is our hostess for this hop 

so please make sure you start with her blog 

where she has some treats but no tricks for this Boo to You hop.

Trick or Treat. 

Smell my feet. 

Give me something good to eat...

Tonight we celebrate Halloween with porch lights on and ghost and goblins who come a knockin'.

This hop is to celebrate all that is fun and scary come Halloween night 

so join our crafters who have conjured up some Halloween fright or laughter as it well may be. 

Here is your broom for the ride through this hop....

These are some goodies I have prepared for my little Trick or Treaters tonight...

 This darling little Calderon is from a SVGCuts collection from last year... Party on Elm Street

Each of the candies are decorated...the suckers have googly eyes...

the candy bars have wrappers...

oh, how fun this was to take to work and show off...but they ate most of it...so I had to make more...

I love the added ribbon from Stampin' Up and the Epiphany embellishment with the spider,

oh how I hate spiders...

This next project is a wall hanging I put together...

I had every intention in hanging it in my entryway ..but it never made it there...lol...

so I will share it with you all...

I used a bunch of files to put the little witch together... if you look you can see a witches hat a the top and her legs hanging out the bottom... I have some of my very own original files along with some SVGcuts files and Silhouette America online store files...

This was a fun wall hanging to put together... the picture does it NO justice...

Thank you for ringing my doorbell and now continue to CallyAnn's blog. 
 If you stumbled upon my blog tonight and wish to begin the hop…start with Lorby’s World

Should you get lost out there…here is a list of the hop…so sit back and check out the Tricks or Treats we have for you...

MyGrafico Monday...Choo Choo

OMG!!! look how cute this is...

if I can say so myself...lol

I used this digi file from MyGrafico

by Revidevi

Smiley Trains

I used the print and cut feature on my Cameo

to print these cute little trains ... then put them on my cutting mat

and the Cameo did all the hard work...

I can totally see a birthday party with all the kids having their

very own cup...and what a savings for mom...not using a bunch of cups...

then toss them when done...or even send them home with a goodie bag...

oh wow, the possibilities are endless...

maybe I should have made a goodie bag too...oh well

the cups and the gift bag...

oh yeah the gift bag...

it too was printed on my printer then cut with the Cameo...

I love how you can take just about any digi image and make an .svg

to cut with the designer edition of the Silhouette America...

here are some more pictures of the cute cups...

Now it's your turn to make something cool..

The MyGrafico Community is so much fun to be apart of...and it's free...

Embossing on a Pop can

Have you ever thought about using a soda pop can for

well, our design team member challenges you to

Embossing on a Pop Can...

from the other design team members...

I used a Coke can and the Autumn Splendor stamp set.. 

a flower with a brad to finish it off...

you know once you heat set the embossing powder it does not 

smear at all...it's great...I can see me doing this again...

Now your turn to 

get your hands of this wonderful stamp set by

I took a craft color gift bag and turned it into a 'WOW' gift bag...heehee

No really, it looks incredible, what an improvement, who would not just love

to get this? whatever the present might be its a gift in itself...

So I attached a red 12 x 12 patterned paper for the base

oh don't forget the eyelets in each upper corner for reinforcements

I cut a few banner parts using my Cameo

I stamped the Ho! Ho! Ho! from the 

Holly Jolly Greetings

a Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich Co. stamp set

fussy cut the Santa after stamping 

and coloring with my Spectrum Noir Alcohol markers

colored the stars with some metallic markers...

MyGrafico Monday, Here again...

Well, it's Monday and that means I share with you a MyGrafico file/project

This week we worked with

The Wild West

by Mel's Brushes

 This is a fun western set, you can use them as a brush in your Photoshop or like program...

or use them  as a vector EPS, PNG or JPEG (like I did)

I pulled the image onto my Silhouette America Designer Edition virtual mat and used my Cameo

to cut the star. I first traced the image then pulled it from the original art.

Then cut the image... Easy Peasy !!!!

I used the rosette file by Lori Whitlock to make the cute backing to the star...

put it together on a Lori Whitlock self closing box...

so cute !!!

Be sure to check out the other design team members for inspiration using these

wonderful vector files.

You still have time to enter the current challenge of 

Anything Goes on the MyGrafico Challenge Blog

Happy Monday Everyone...
