It's time to get spooky or not!

My featured kit at my Creative Classes this month is Hooligans - this kit is perfect for Halloween (of course) but also perfect for other ideas - how about a birthday party!  Take those little monsters away (or leave them there if your birthday boy or girl is a monster) and you have an adorable paper packet!  What about for other things - like a Hot Air Balloon ride?  Looking at my blog and trying to figure out why my scheduled post did not post last week, I realized that this paper would be PERFECT for my photos!  So I am going to create a layout with flip flaps to showcase this amazing ride!  Stay tuned and I will post them in a few weeks!

Now for the Workshop on the Go Hooligans!  As soon as I saw this paper - I knew I had the perfect photos for the kit - a few years ago photos of Halloween when my niece came to visit around Halloween and was here to Trick or Treat.  My how the years have gone by SO fast!  Brandon is now 17 and a senior - graduating next June from high school and may be serving our country in the military!  While I love the concept of the WOTG sometimes they are a little too simplistic so I add my touch.  I use the pattern but usually add paper layouts and a little more creativity. 

Now for the cards, each month I use the Stamp of the Month for the month I am featuring the kit and the stamp set that is included in the kit.  Sometimes I even throw in another stamp set.  Gotta admit this little monster stamp is super cute! 

Make It from YOUR Heart and have a fabulous week!



Make It From Your Heart - Workshops

Friday was our heARTS4Him Team meeting at my house during the day!  I took the day off from work using a vacation day and BOTH of my boys ended up coming home and asking why I was home - like I was playing hookie or something!  Nooooo....took the day off just for my team!

We had a blast making our projects - these same projects I will teach at my upcoming holiday workshops I call - Gifts from the Heart.  I LOVE the holiday season and cannot wait to share these fun projects with my customers.  While I e-mailed the patterns with instructions and dimensions - thought I would share the photos here!  And if you are on this post months from now and new to the team - be sure to just e-mail me and ask me for the "Gifts from the Heart" 2010 workshop patterns and I would be happy to e-mail them to you!

Be sure to join us at the next heARTS4Him team meeting on Tuesday, November 30th - be sure to order the kit for the National Papercrafting Month to create at this meeting!  I plan to use this kit for my January classes to bridge to the next new and amazing idea book!

Have a blessed week!
