Trick or Treat

My apologies for not posting yesterday.  On Friday night we had a power outage for a couple of hours and when it did come back on, there were a couple of surges first.  When it was on to stay, we discovered our 4 1/2 year old t.v. was toasted.  Of course that took hours to figure out and kept me from getting a chance to make anything to show you.

Saturday was filled with shopping, spending and re-arranging furniture to handle the new t.v.  It's very nice, was way more affordable than the last one we purchased, but it wasn't until we got it home that it didn't have a center mounted stand, instead it has two feet that are 38 inches apart.  Our t.v. stand is only 36 inches wide.  Argh!!!!  Just one of those days.  There's more to the drama, but I won't bore you with it.

Let's get to the FUN...

It was so much fun making this card.  Winning the stamp set at Convention was awesome and I love the stamps and now that I have the Framelits to match, it's even BETTER!  It is great to be a Demonstrator and being able to purchase items a month before everyone else.  Would you like to get an early start on your holiday cards?  Join my team and you can make your Starter Kit with anything you want, even from the Holiday Mini!  Just think Christmas Cards done before September!
