Beware!

Howdy Bloggers:
 Well, we lost our Internet service on Friday. It has been a challenge not having Internet.  However Monday afternoon our new box arrived so now our Wi-Fi and Internet are running smoothly.
 
I have been creating Easel Cards lately - It has been awhile since I have used this technique and now I am hooked on creating many easel cards - I am sure this will pass and I will move on to something else, but for now, I am enjoying the ease of making these type of card creations.

Not long ago, I received an email from Sizzix Company that offered closed out die sets for 99 cents each - of course I could not turn down that deal!  Here is a Easel Card I created using one of those sets- Beware. Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!

  1. Like your Halloween Easel Card. Since you have a carved pumpkin on the card you can enter it in my Halloween Challenge. Loss of Internet is a bummer. We lost Verizon tv last night for a short while but Internet stayed up & running. Was watching a Deep Purple concert and after they finished Smoke on the Water song the tv went out and was awhile before it came back on.

    1. Thanks for entering your Halloween Easel Card. Your Jack O' Lantern is carved up nicely and I'll beware of the tricks and hope for only treats. Hubby got a new Dremel Pumpkin Carving Tool from Home Depot.
