Embossed birthday cards

I give my co-workers cards and this month there were four that I needed for the first 5 days of the month.  I also have quite a few other cards that I had to make so I was in quite a rush.  I pulled out some embossing folders that I haven't used in quite awhile.  So I made these two cards for two of my co-workers.

Hand over the Halloween candy

I have one more card that I made for the new release at Imagine That Digistamp using Monique's Froggy Costume and the sentiment from TLC.  I made this a Side Step Card which is so simple to do.  I added some candy erasers that I found at Target in the dollar section.

WHOOOO wants some candy?

I have an owl that many nights I hear when I am posting my cards late at night.  My husband and I would hear a pair of them calling back and forth when we were in bed which is interesting.  So I night we even went out and tried to get some pictures since they were in our backyard.  When we were on a trip in Florida we got the picture that I have below.
Imagine That Digistamp has this adorable Lizzy's Owl Costume as a new image out today.  I put movable eyes from Darice that are just fun.  The sentiment is from TLC.

Pumpkin weather is here!

Kris at Imagine That Digistamp has some new images and here is another one called Marleen's Pumpkin Frogs and I used a sentiment from TLC.  We are having our temps going up and down so it shows that it is fall, but our leaves are turning beautiful colors which I just love.

Paw-sing to say Thank You

I have made some cards for a Border Collie "Run as One" club.  So Paulette at TLC was kind enough to create the sentiment and Miss Rach made this beautiful Border Collie as a freebie.  I put the sentiment in the paws to look like a ball.  THANKS to these wonderful designers!!!

Have a Purrfect Thanksgiving

I'm behind in posting my cards.  This one goes for the Imagine That Digistamp Pumpkin Kitties which the pumpkin is full of these little critters.  I have the sentiment from this set as well.  At Imagine That Digistamp there is a new challenge that started for the month.  With this photo is hard to see the embossing of my purple die behind the pumpkin - sorry for the bad picture.
