Well, I’ve moved.  I have had my blog redone on a different site and will no longer be posting here.  Please move with me to http://marocmama.blogspot.com

 

Sorry for an inconvenience!

Oh my goodness I am having cute overload from all the new released Halloween stamps.  I have to order them all!!!

First up is Taylor’s.  These have got to be the cutest stamps that I have ever seen.  Period! 

Ok so my favorite are the ones in the middle.  Because well they are just great! I also love the cupcake blowing out the cake candles on the second set.  Plus she sells them so that they come in a sleeve that fits into a binder – that is genius!  She also has coordinating paper/embillishments called “key ingredients”. 

Super cute right?  The best part is that you can order ALL of it!!!  Check out her store here.

Taylor has a 12 person design team for her new stamp line and I happened to click across to one and found a great idea!  i {heart} to stamp.  Isn’t this awesome?

She had originally made a coffee lovers set and then created this kit with the new cupcake stamps.  All the bottles are full of cupcake toppings!  If you want the template for this she has it on her blog here.

Next up, C.C. Designs.  I love these stamps because the characters make you just want to squeeze them and pinch their cheeks!  The Halloween set (on sale September 9th) is called Spooky, Spooky, Spooky.  First up is the Count Bear.  (Note these samples are from Lauren M’s blog here.)

He doesn’t look so scary to me but definetely a litte guy I’d want to wrap my arms around! 

Anyone who knows me knows that I do not do animals.  Really I don’t like them very much.  For some reason this little guy makes me want to go get one and bring him home! 

So what am I going to do with all this inspiration?  Luckily my son has to bring treats to school around the week of Halloween so that might lead to me making several treat bags for him.

We’re feeling the effects of Tropical Storm Hanna right now, so we might be without power this afternoon, I’m hoping to get the kids down for a nap and then make some cards!!

These are a long time coming but in an attempt to clean out my computer (because it’s a losing steam and needs to be completely wiped out) I’m trying to get all my pictures online.  So in July my sister got married and so I finally got to go to Seattle for the big day. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is my uber cute nephew, who happens to have a mohawk.  I wouldn’t give my kids a mohawk but that’s my sister’s style.

 

After the ceremony.  It was small and simple on the ocean.  Heck they didn’t even have an exact location picked out, they just had an “idea”.  Very impromptu!  (My sister bought her dress the morning of the wedding!)

Saying their vows.

 

 

…..and they lived happily ever after….
