Mini Halloween Cards and a Treat!

Yay! I finally (just now) sorted out the problem of the disappearing menu! I can now post as many photos as I like, instead of one or two at a time. Ok, so above and below are 2 mini Halloween cards I made recently. I used a new Tim Holtz woodgrain embossing folders for the background. I swooshed some white ink over it to give it a distressed look. Then I used double sided sponge to stick the cat and ghost to the card.The images were 2 I had already cut out and coloured. I added a few tiny gold stars to each card and they were finished. The cards are about the size of an ATC card. I added a hand written sentiment to the ghost card as well as a mini brick. These cards are fun to create!

I created the card below using my large die set. I die card the letters and then attached the gold card behind the letters and also glued a white insert to the inside of the card. I stamped some random dots and snowflakes, and added some tiny gold stars I die cut. I wasn't sure if I liked the card when I finished it, but it's grown on me!

Above s a photo of my fave sweet treat! They have some sort of soft pink creamy stuff inside. There's only one cafe I know of where I can buy them, and it's a 20 minute bus ride from me. Anyway, they are yummy and I bought...two recently! I think they're called Cherry Tarts. Having talked about them, I now want one!

I have a hospital appointment tomorrow for an infusion for improving bone density. I've had them before and although the infusion only takes 15 minutes, I have very tiny veins and they have lots of trouble finding a suitable vein. I also have a massive fear of needles:-(  I have been prescribed something to relax me, which I take about 45 minutes before the infusion. I am stressed already and did not sleep well last night. I don't know how I will react to to this tablet and have been told the effects can last for several hours. I have to use public transport to get home so  I hope I'm ok, or the hospital will have to keep me there until the effects wear off! 

I recently purchased some new Snarky cat stamps and dies. (Spellbinders Merry Mayhem stamps and dies, and Joy-ish sentiments clear stamp set.) They are not of the Snarky Cats stamps already available, these are Christmas sentiments, somewhat naughty, sarcastic and funny! I got 2 different sets, one with dies and one with sentiments. As soon as I saw them, they jumped into my basket and the next thing I know they were with the courier and on their way to me! Luckily my local craft store stocks them! They should arrive maybe tomorrow, with some luck! You will see them here eventually! IN the mean time, check out Andrea B's blog Shippets by Andrea, she has some very funny and cute Snarky Cat's Halloween cards she made on her blog! Ok, that's it for now. Thanks for dropping by! Have a SUNSHINE day! Remember to always be your authentic self, and shine bright each and every day!
