Well, with Halloween being right around the corner, I went crazy this weekend making cards. For some reason, with all the supplies and stamps that I have, could not find the "perfect card." I tried all of the stamps that I had, all the halloween paper I had, and still, could not find something that I personally would buy.
So, I ventured to the local craft store, again (poor me, right?). Do I go straight to the Halloween stuff? Oh no, that would be way too easy. I go up and down all the aisles. This is my way of saying, "Well, you know never know . . . something could be on sale, I could miss something, something could inspire me. Maybe I'll get some ideas if I look at other stuff."
Low and behold, I find WAY more than I need (I could open up my own store with all that I have). I find stuff for "other" projects to begin new ideas, etc. However, I did find JUST what I was looking for. And then some.
Not only did I find just what I needed at the craft store, but when I got home I found stuff that I already had that had not attempted to try previously.
Voila! Aren't they cool? I used black acrylic paint to stamp on this freakish lil cat. It's great for Halloween as I think one of the trademarks are black cats. I put this fun four pak on my website.
As well as this one! I love these cute spiders. I titled this pak, Glitzy Spider Halloween 3 Pak. She, or rather, it sure does shine! All glammed up for Halloween. SHE just needs a pink bow in her hair . . . or maybe it should be orange for Halloween!?
There are more Halloween cards up and I will continue to add more as we count down to our ghoulish holiday! Enjoy!

Welcome friends, family, and well, people that I look forward to knowing!
Due to the attraction of reading about other people's lives and not even KNOWING them, I find myself compelled to create a blog of my own. And being that my life is surely not as boring as SOME people in this world, I figure that I mine as well give it a try. Can't hurt, right?
A little about me and my reason for creating a blog:
1. If I read about other people (mostly friends and their friends), shouldn't they be able to read about me?
2. I just started a business (or two) and want everyone to know more about what I do.
3. To share in the joys and the, well, not so wonderful things, that I have in my life.
4. Why not spend more time on the computer than I already am?
That's not a lot about myself, but you will know more as I go along.
Below is a great item that I recently put up on my website. It's a years worth of cards! The photos below are a sample of what the end result will look like once you choose the cards you would need.
Come and check out my store. When you buy three cards, you get a fourth free (of equal or lesser value) during the rest of September! Simply enter KBCBLOG at checkout. A new invoice will be emailed to you with the correct amount due at checkout.
Happy Shopping!
