Fresh Baked for October 26, 2012

The wind has blown all the leaves off the trees. The aisles of stores are starting to smell like a mixture of pumpkin pie, gingerbread cookies, and apple cinnamon. The smells of fall and winter, mixing all together, I love this time of year.
Children are getting excited for the chance to knock on neighbors doors and say “Trick Or Treat”. Teenagers are deciding if it’s worth the hassle of dressing up to get some candy, or seeing if they can just snag some from the bowl when they help their parents greet the trick-or-treaters. Parents are talking to their kids about safety and about their own Halloweens with their parents.

Instead of finding some layouts using the buffet, we have a new Monthly Mix out. It’s called Dia de Los Muertos. It truly fits the mood of the next few days, I think, whether you celebrate Halloween or not. Whether you participate in the Day of the Dead festivals that occur. The colors are bright, fun, and it’s just a great kit, all around.

The CT had a blast using the kit for more than just Halloween and Day of the Dead layouts, and I had to share a few of them with you!

Sneak Peeks!!!

Hey everybody!!!  I don’t know about the weather where you are, but the weather here has been BEAUTIFUL!!!   The leaves are so vibrant in all my favorite colors and the temperature has been a tad bit warmer than normal.  I’m not complaining at all though I love this time of year.  I can’t believe it’s almost the end of October. I know around my house we are getting ready for Halloween and the election.  Here are this weeks sneak peeks for some of the upcoming kits.

I love the black pumpkins in this kit and the googly eyes.  I can’t wait to see the whole kit from Kathy Winters Designs it’s perfect for all our spooky pictures.

I really love the way this template flows it is also from Angelclaud Artroom. ( the kit and word art is from Connie Prince and Inspired Designs which can be found in the store already)

Neverland Scraps is getting us ready for the upcoming Presidential election.  A lot of people are ready for Election Day to get here and this kit looks like a great way to document all the action at the polls.
