Awesome Giveaway from keepsakesbymelissa

I just wanted to help spread the word about

the insanely generous giveaway going on over at

Creating from the Heart.

Melissa is offering some of the most incredible

items as her end of the year Christmas giveaway!!

 

And on the 13th Day of Creepmas...

...we show off our decorations.

Check out my awesome new wreath!!

I just LOVE it when someone really gets me!

My dear friend MacKenzie had a cookie swap this past weekend.

Somehow, in the midst of her busy schedule she made this

incredibly creeptastic wreath for me!!

So glad I didn't flake on the cookie swap!!

Thanks 'Kenzie!! I LOVE it!! 

CreepyG handmade ornament of years past.

My son's special order Skullflake ornament.

More ornies from last year's batch.

My piece de resistance!!!

Even though most folks don't even notice.

Thank you for stopping by to check out my less than

punctual 13 Days of Creepmas posts.

It has been fun, but sometimes life gets in the way.

Hopefully, next year I will have a better plan for the entire

13 days of Creepmas.

Keep it Creepy!! 

And on the 12th day there was music....

Merry Creepmas!

Now for the coolest video I have seen in months!!

Enjoy!



Creepmas: Favorite Hexmas stamps

I did actually make it back today! Yay me!

I wanted to share a couple of cards I have been working on

for Creepmas, or as I like to call it as of late,

"HEXMAS"!

One of the coolest and quirkiest rubber stamp artists

in my opinion is, Daniel Torrente who designs for

Stampotique stamps.

I have amassed quite the Torrente collection over the last few years.

They are all my babies, and I love them all equally!

Probably my favorite line of rubber ever! 

This is "Snowman".

Kinda creepy, yet passable to the masses as just 'primitive".

My absolute favorite holiday sentiment ever

from the creative genius of

Leavenworth Jackson.

This is "Global Warming".

Nuff said.

I've got a cookie swap to get ready for tomorrow, so

off I go to the dungeon (a.k.a. my kitchen) to make 5 dozen

Oreo Truffle Balls! Mmmmmm, ...Oreo Truffle balls!!!

Nom! The Zombied Angels Groan...

Well I kinda fell off the Creepmas bandwagon

didn't I?

Life has really gotten in the way lately, but I am back!

I'm gonna ease into Creepmas again with a little collection

I have been working on over the past year.

Zombie Angels!!!!

Just look at my handsome boys!

So precious!

I cannot express my sheer joy when I am hunting for

sculptures at the local thrift store, and run across a

perfect angel!!!!

This is my tree topper this year.

I'm not sure how long the husband is going to tolerate

my Zombie Angel display atop the mantel, so I thought I 

should snap some pics of the kids before they go back into the 

barrister bookcase. Gotta keep a lid on these guys. 



CREEPMAS: Day 5

Nom, nom, nom!

Merry Creepmas!!!!

Today I received some happy mail to help ease the

sting of being destitute this holiday. Grrrrr!

I got a package from my dear friend, Deb at

On Cupcake Moon.

Deb creates (by hand-the old fashioned way) the most adorable

little images perfect for party favors, invites,

business cards, mugs, shirts, etc!!!

Both my business cards and mailing labels have her "Reaper"

design on them! I LOVE the Reaper!! 

So, the second I heard she was making Holiday designs

with a creepy flair, I was all in!

Looks like I got some extra goodies too!

Who doesn't need cool/cute gift tags for the holidays?

These would be cute as little ornaments too!

 I ordered Creepmas cards in three designs with a custom printed

sentiment inside.

The one with the skull snowflakes is perfect to go with my 

Skullflake ornaments!!!!

And how yummy does that Gingerdead man look?

So, if you are in need of cool printables for the holidaze

or any occasion check out

On Cupcake Moon and  OCM on Etsy too! 

CREEPMAS: Days 3 and 4

Had a bit of a crappy week, so I have fallen behind on my

Creepmas posts.

My husband's work truck was stolen from in front of our house

Friday. All of his personal tools are gone!

Well over $2000 worth of his livelihood, STOLEN!

The truck was recovered later in the day, but now my husband's

awesome schmuck of an employer has scheduled him

OFF WITHOUT PAY for the entire coming week

as a finishing turd in the punchbowl to this wonderful experience!

Oh! And a Merry Hexmas to you too!

*&!$#@!!!

Anyhoo,

I did put together a couple of clean and simple cards to get my head

out of the depressive fog.

I absolutely LOVE this stamp!!

I picked this image up at Paper Makeup Stamps.

They are doing away with all of their rubber!! Blaspheme!!

But I did get a smashing deal on some fabulous stamps.  

I used Kraft stock and a cute rotating stamp

that has a bunch of holiday sentiments on it.

I thought "Naughty or Nice" was fitting.

I'll get my head in the game and will be back for the

remaining 9 Days of Creepmas.
