Day 17 of Great Card Giveaway

Can you believe it's already mid-October? If anyone is just now finding us, you're invited to hop aboard and be a part of our Great Card Giveaway where you can enter a random drawing for one of the free cards shown daily. For easy instructions on how to participate, just scroll down through the posts to October 1!

Today I made a fun and colorful Halloween card. Gosh, there go those buttons again!

Few of these cards would fit through the automated letter sorter at the post office, so if you win one and mail it off to somebody, be aware that the USPS requires an extra stamp for hand sorting. The cards are heavy, though, and would require extra postage anyway.

Wishing you all a really great fall weekend! It's more TV football at our house today, with some frantically fast household chores stuffed in during the commercials! My husband follows Ohio State and I'm a Bama fan - Roll Tide! I wonder who your fave team is?

Card 9 in Great October Giveaway!

Just a minute or two ago I was reading a message from our daughter Stephanie. She said she's been making "harvest dinners" at their house. She is a wonderful cook, taking after her grandmother, so I'm sure her house was filled with yummy aromas all week long. Do you remember when you were a little kid (come on, has it been THAT long ago?), coming home from school and realising as soon as the door was open that there would be a spectacular dinner that evening? MMM! The roast chicken! The baking potatoes! The onions in the dressing!

I don't think Wichita has been working in the kitchen. At best she throws a few frog's tails in the cauldron, mumbles her magic incantations, then hops on her broom and goes searching for mischief.

Notice what a difference there is with the same stamp when a different color scheme
is used.
