trick or treat

I am back home in Maryland. It was a difficult summer for me. I had erratic sleeping patterns, the humidity kicked my butt; I was miserable, out of sorts and lacking mojo for much of  August and September. I managed to make cards to post while I was visiting my Dad in California during October but few of them made me smile.

I think that I have finally gotten a good sleeping pattern, I have been home for 5 days and have been in bed by midnight and up by 8 each morning without an alarm.  I am feeling much more productive, and the weather is beginning to cool with far less humidity than a month ago.  I am feeling so much better.  Last night I sat down to color some cards and enjoyed the process. YEA!

Now, I know I said those crazy cat stamps kinda creeped me out...but when I saw Sandy Allnock's post combining them with the crazy dogs...well I had to get them.  They are perfect for Halloween. 

For Addicted to stamps Make your Mark




For Just Us Girls Photo Inspiration


These cards are for my crafty group...I still have a few more to make, but thought I would post these now.

I colored them with copics so I am submitting one to the Addicted to Stamps and More -Make your Mark challenge.  And another to the Just us Girls Photo Inspiration challenge.




Thanks so much for stopping by!

I am sorry to hear that you had not been feeling well for so long. I hope that this new feeling is the start of a long period of being well! I have the crazy cats and they are a lot of fun. They can be creepy, but can be cute too. I love the way you used them for Halloween cards! Your friends are really going to enjoy them!

What a wonderful use of the Tim Holtz crazy cats... I love the way he looks at the pumpkin so distrustfully - made me laugh. Great take on the inspiration photo. So glad you joined us at JUGS this week

Oh my gosh, I love them all, but the last one has to be my fave...what a sweet expression!
I'm so glad you're finally getting some good rest...I think the cooler weather helps, and of course being home with your man makes all the difference! Looks like your mojo is fine, that's for sure :)
