Cookies, more Halloween goodies AND a winner!

First we will start with the winner because while I know that you are always on the edge of your seat waiting to see my latest creation (haha!), you probably came by today to see if you won the giveaway.  That's okay, I get it!  Drumroll please...

I would love the "Halloween" blocks. So cute!

Congrats, Debbie!  Please contact me within 24 hours to claim your Halloween letters...if no response a new winner will be chosen.

Thanks to all who played along!

The last few days I have been busy making 125, 50th Wedding Anniversary cookies.  They are for a couple so special that I am actually hand carrying them on the plane...there are just some things you can't trust the Man in Brown with!  I haven't taken any pictures yet, I will post them and tell you all the details when I do!

So for now I will show you some cookies that I did a couple of weeks ago.  My niece, needed some wedding cookies to send to a friend's daughter.  I am always paranoid to ship, but I am happy to report, they ALL arrived safe and sound.

 

And last but not least, another little Halloween project I did yesterday (you all remember my love of Halloween, right?!)  I actually saw this idea on Pinterest...have you been there yet?  If not, you MUST get on board...you won't be sorry!  Anyhoo, this is the original version that inspired me:

 

I fell in love with that little 3D picture frame idea...and while the pumpkin looks super cute, I wanted something a little more "ghoulish"!  It was meant to be because I had purchased a frame at Ross a couple of weeks ago that would work perfect...I already had Halloween paper for the background.  I believe this person may have attached her pumpkin to the glass, but I chose to take the glass out and glue it to the paper covered cardboard.  I picked up the styrofoam skull at Michaels for about $1.  Total cost...about $6.




Whatcha' think?!  Is it crazy that this makes me positively giddy?  Yep, pretty sure it is!  Till next time...

  3. That is so cool. The frame you found is perfect. I like the way you did it, you can use the frame for multiple things.
    Since I didnt win your awesome blocks, I think Im gonna have to try and make myself one. I dont have a vinyl cutter but I figure I could use stamps or a stencil or something and cut my letters out of paper. Thanks for the inspiration!
