Happy Thursday!  Ready to play with Decorative Masks!  What the heck is a Decorative Mask?  Decorative masks are Stampin' Up!'s fancy name for stencils!  Stencils are an excellent way to create fun, creative backgrounds for your cards and scrapbook pages.  If you haven't tried one - what are you waiting for?  Jump in with a piece of cardstock, your Blending Brushes or Sponge Daubers, your favorite inks and create a masterpiece!  

Today's Facebook Live show cased the Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks, Trucking Along and Pick of the Patch Bundles for a sweet Autumn greeting card.  

Welcome to the Crafty Collaborations Halloween 2023 Blog Hop!  I hope you enjoy hopping along today with this talented group for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators as they meet the challenge!  To hop along, click on the next talented blogger in the list at the end of my blog!  

It's that time of year for the witches, goblins, pirates and princesses to make their yearly trek through the neighborhood with their treat bags to fill with sweet treats! 

Halloween is my husband's favorite holiday hands down.  He loves to decorate the yard and is always on the look out for something new to add to his display.  We have neighbors that create a daily scene with skeletons and we get to guess the theme of the day!  Todays theme was "Where is Waldo?" Another neighbor enjoys sharing their CU Buffalo and Denver Bronco pride by staging a weekly football scene in their yard with skeleton players, coaches, cheerleaders, mascots and spectators!  I have to say - I just love fall - lol!  

Today's Crafty Challenge Blog Hop is a Halloween Blog Hop.  Today, I chose to play with the Pick of the Patch bundle to make some sweet Halloween cards for my sons.  I like to give them a little gift card as a "big boy" treat - lol!  

 Hello Crafting Friends!  Join me for the super fun, super adorable and super awesome Merry & Bright Christmas Series!  

 Happy Friday!  I haven't made it to the beautiful Colorado Rockies this fall, but the pictures I am seeing from friends on Facebook are gorgeous!  I love Fall!  The colors are amazing in the Colorado Rockies.  Although, I have had a chance to see the reds and oranges of Wisconsin and the East Coast - I love them all!  How about you - do you love Fall?  

I made it back to my Facebook Live Wednesday evening crafting time this week!  I so missed spending time crafting and providing some inspiration!  This week I showcased the adorable Bag of Bones Bundle from the Them Bones suite collection.  If you love Halloween and are looking for something to craft with this season - this is the one to get!
