Welcome to a new challenge at Shopping Our Stash and it's my great grandson's favourite time in fact his mom said I could make him Halloween cards all year. The prompt is to use the holiday for the theme or use Halloween colours orange, black, green, lime and/or purple, as you see mine is a super cute Halloween card using one of my House Mouse Halloween stamps. So when I saw the September 2024 Sheetload sketch I knew it was perfect. If you follow the full instructions it makes 12 mini slimline cards, I wanted to use up some 6 X 6 Halloween papers so I prepped for 3 but only managed to get one finished, be prepared to see the other 2 soon.

Thankful....
It seems like it was yesterday I was confessing about my obsession over House Mouse stamps and now we are on to thinking about Leaves which is the new challenge at Shopping Our Stash. Fall colours and pumpkin spice are not any of my favourite things but it had to be done which is why it's called a challenge. I'm Leaf-ing it up to you for the next two weeks to join in the fun.

True Confessions......
We have a new challenge at Shopping Our Stash....I Don't Really Need Another One/True Confessions from the Design Team. As a Hoarder I mean Crafter everything can become an obsession, and it goes in stages, first for me was Snowmen stamps next it was Butterflies, I couldn't resist a butterfly stamp or die or both but my real problem is House Mouse designs. I have been collecting and using House Mouse, Happy Hoppers and Gruffies for 25 years. I have a lot of woodblock stamps dating from 1999, I have many, many cling mount stamps as well and a few clear ones too I also have stickers. I really have no idea of how many I really have and do I really want to know?

It's Rudolph Days for August!!!
I have been spending some time at the cottage and quite often, okay very often have forgotten supplies, usually sentiments but it's a nice change of scenery and October will come too soon. Since I brought my new 3D embossing folder and a Christmas die I needed to take the folder for a test drive. (need a shim), I often grab a bunch of scraps from the desk to add to the collection I have here. So here is the finished very simple card.
