Happy Monday!! More Challenge Shares! :)

Happy Monday Blog Friends.. the sun is OUT here in WA.. yeah.. supposed to be WARM and SUNNY for a few days.. I will take it! :) I LOVE this time of year.. when the sun is shining.. the leaves are turning.. it isnt to hot... (dont get me wrong I love summer too!- and miss it.. but I will take sunny fall days over rainy fall days anyday! HA HA!)

I have 2 shares for ya! Played along with a few other challenges this week.. see kiddos go back to school and I get PLAY TIME! :)

First up is a card.. my friend Diane INSPIRED my leaf! She made this DARLING one here.. and I had to try it.. I used some tissue paper that I COATED in glimmer mist.. I wish the photo could capture how pretty it is IRL! :) Stamped with my NEW PTI leaf print set, and used the PTI die (they are FABULOUS!) ... embossed my paper, stamped.. and VIOLA.. a fun fall card!

Challenges I joined are linked under the card! :)

Next up I have a CUTE little box for Halloween Treats.. I found them HERE .. She has the free template linked there!Used my NEW PTI Halloween Tiny Treats.. Stamped my background... added some fun embellies and done.. (I think this is for my Justin for Halloween.. gone are the CUTESY days of Halloween.. he is in 8th grade now! HA! BUT I cant do creepy scary.. so this is as good as it gets! LOL!)
