Last night, I went to the crop over at Memories Live On. Some friends convinced me to go, so off I went. I was surprisingly productive and ended up creating three layouts. On top of that, Holly helped me start planning out another class I’m teaching in December.

This first layout was inspired by a sketch over at Scrapbooking Supplies R Us. I played with the latest line, Persuasion, from Bo Bunny. …and I totally LOVE LOVE LOVE the stitching on this one.

The layout below was created using the latest sketch over at Sketchy Thursdays. I love the paper on this one. Isn’t the October Afternoon paper adorable?!

…and here’s the next one I finished. It’s definitely one of my more simple designs, meaning I was too lazy to embellish it. LOL.

Other updates to write about:

We decided that today was going to be Pumpkin Carving Day in our house. Oh, the joys of October! We had such a fun time making a mess. Even the dogs had a “taste” of pumpkin carving (literally speaking — we weren’t too thrilled about that, hehe). Gloria’s definitely the artist when it comes to carving our pumpkins. I always try to carve something simple.

Here I go....!

Maui and I are gutting out our pumpkin!

Pumpkin guts! Wahooo, NOT!

I told you I always take the simple way out when it comes to pumpkin carving! Cute though, right?!

Maui worked on her own pumpkin (with the help of Gloria of course)!

Check out our pumpkins lit up and ready to go for Halloween:

Gloria worked on her "scary" pumpkin.

How vain is Hilo?! He begged Gloria to help him put his face on his pumpkin too! He likes to copy everything Maui does.

Maui's pumpkin!

Maui and Hilo's pumpkin - schnauzer and schnauzer. Awesome job, Gloria! They look amazing!

…and I’m so super excited that in about a week I get to hang out with Deana and Julie. I seriously can’t wait! We are gonna have a blast!

Okay, off to get some rest. Tomorrow’s going to be a long and FUN day.

Hugs,
