The S.W.A.K. is part of the new October release and the Chunky Heart is a classic favorite! Yep, I can see that I will be needing some more of this! It's so easy and FUN to use!

Fun Scrappy Stuff!

Well, it's been a while since I posted so I've also been up to lots of scrappy stuff recently! I've added a ton of stuff to my Ally Scraps Gallery.

Teresa, Susan and I have also started an Etsy shop where we're going to sell all kinds of fun stuff from recipe boxes, to baby clothes, to Christmas ornaments, to paint cans...LOTS of stuff. There's only a few things up right now until we get some pictures taken, so check back often to see what we've got!

This is also my month as a guest designer for Magistical memories Chipboard! I got a nice big package of goodies today and I can't wait to start playing!

I also found out today that I'm one of the finalists for the Daisy D's Design Team! I don't have any huge expectations, but it's an honor to be considered anyway! The official DT announcement will be made on December 10th!

Also the new sketch went up today over at Gettin Sketchy so go check that out. It's another fabulous sketch!

I also wanted to thank 2 of my best friends--Jennifer and Jennifer...They drove all the way up to the scrapbook store where I work (from Oklahoma City) just to take one of my classes! Do I have the best friends ever or what?! I loved seeing you guys and miss you already!

Okay, on to some fun stuff that I've been busy working on!:

Halloween Fun

Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday of the year! I think it's because it's also during my favorite season. This year Tate dressed up as Frankenstein and he was the CUTEST Frankenstein ever! We spent our Halloween evening at the hot dog roast at the park in Moline. Tate had lots of fun playing with the other kids! Here's some fun Halloween pics!

Where did October Go??

I think October was the busiest month ever! Lots of fun events going on, some travels, lots of crafty things to do...So, today I have a big update! As busy as October is, it's also my favorite month of the year! Between pumpkin patches, brilliant fall colors, cooler weather, Halloween...I just LOVE it!

We went to the pumpkin Patch in Bartlesville again this year. It's just so much fun! Tate had done nothing but talk about it since last year.

Tate and I also traveled to Oklahoma City this month and went to the zoo with the Jennifers. We stayed the night and ate at Red Robin for dinner. Tate's still wondering where the Red Robin went...He was there in full costume and Tate had a blast! They have awesome food, so if you havn't eaten there, you should!

Then there was all the Neewollah hoopla. Tate was tall enough to ride the rides this year. His favorites were the helicopter and the roller coaster. Teresa, Susan and I also had a booth at the craft fair. It was okay, but I don't think we'll be doing it again next year. It was a lot of work! I think I'd rather watch the parade with my family!

Anyway...here's lots of fun photos from the last month or so...Enjoy!
