halloween 2011: little miss ghosties.

good morning monday!

i know halloween was LAST week but i wanted to share a few of the little projects i did. my lofty goals of totally decking the house out this halloween didn't quite pan out but it was nice to be able to fit in a few crafty days where i could!

first up are the 'little miss ghostie' cards that i sent out from abby to the family...

 
 
 


these were a very simple project. i know feet ghosts (and other mutations) have been plastered all over pinterest and other blogs so they are definitely nothing new - but they are such a great, easy idea to send a little growth milestone out to family and friends.

for the base of the card i used Halcraft blank white card & envelope value packs that you can get from any Michaels, Hobby Lobby, AC Moore, JoAnns, etc. i love these value packs. i'm not a huge card maker (trying to change that this year) so having a pack of easy cards and envelopes that i can design on top of is so nice. i've used these value packs for abby's announcements, thank yous, and so much more over the years.

other supplies:

white paint
black cardstock
american crafts remarks: moma
scrapworks motifs: boo stamp (halloween)
versacolor: orange
misc. halloween ribbon from stash

tfl!
love.

figuring it out.

this new life.
my new "normal".
my new body...

(or the new body i'm trying to get).

our space.
how to have fun.
if i'm doing it right.

and i think i'm getting there.

i've gotten a few things done.
more than a few out...


and i'm ready for new opportunities.
i'm again working with paper, yarn, needles, and hooks.

i'm having the most amazing time getting to know this little human...


she's even more complex and amazing than i could have ever imagined.
she's made this mommy thing a piece of cake.

this week:
i'm preparing for the road

love.
