Hey there people! Today is a fabulous Sunday all set up with one great sketch from Pam and a super fun 365 Card blog hop! So lets get started!
Here is today's sketch:
I was really excited about this one because I have the perfect triangle stamp from Pink Persimmon. Here is my take on today's sketch:Happy Halloween!!! I paired up some Papertrey Ink paper/stamps and Pink Persimmon. I feel like I have been using this paper a lot, but you know how that goes....
Today's Blog Hop is a fun one because I get to list 7 random facts about myself and then I will send you onto the next blog. Are you ready????
1. When I was young (but still old enough to know better) I cut the hair off ALL of my Barbies (about 10) and stuffed the hair behind my toy chest to hide the deed from my mother.
2. I play the guitar and sing in my *spare* time.
3. My favorite fast food is Papa John's Pizza. (Although it's not THAT fast)
4. I graduated with a BFA in Acting and Directing.
5. I have been in a Casino commercial. ; )
6. My favorite candy is Butterfinger.
7. I come from a family of 7 kids!!
That's it folks. Pretty random, but fun! I would love to get to know you better too. So be sure to leave me a comment here and you will be entered to win one of two Mac Mae Card Kits from Pam!!! So be sure to leave a comment and now hop on over to visit SOPHIE!!!
Thanks for visiting!

Such a fab card - well done. x
Great card, Kristie! Love the halloween papers!
Love the papers, I don't 'do' halloween but would use those for general projects any way.
Love that you cut the hair off your dolls, made me LOL, you rebel :)
Love your card! We don't celebrate Halloween in a big way here in Malaysia, but I sure love all your inspirations! :)
love the card,love halloween but don't celebrate it.
another cute card. I, too, don't deal with Halloween but have to make a general fall card with pumpkins for a cute granddaughter.
I love your card. The papers are gorgeous! I like how you did the ribbon too! Do you still have the bald Barbie's?
Greetigs from Florida!
Love your use of satin ribbon. I picked Finn for the name. I also like Butterfingers and Papa John's, tho we can't get it delivered where I live!
OMGoodness, we have a TV star among us????????!!!!! Sheesh, girlie, you are all-around crafty with the guitar and singing...I wish I could sing...dang, I don't even sing in the shower...just whistle...okay, is that TMI? LOL
I love your card that halloween image is stinkin' adorable...and the papers...perfection! I promised myself that I wouldn't buy anything crafty until after CK Seattle and then I'm ordering some PP stamps!!
Perfect use for that triangle stamp! Great card.
Kristie this card is totally awesome and I adore that stamp set from Pink Persimmon, I saw it demoed on the Girlfriends blog.
Hugs

Kristie, love the card and the paper is fab. So you like bald barbies! Did your Mom ever find all that hair?

I love your card and the PTI papers are so good together like that.... thanks for the tidbits about yourself....
Hi, Kristie!
LOVE the Halloween card! the papers and stamps and ribbon go so nice together!
It was great getting to know you better by reading 'your facts'...you are one talented girl!
(And I agree....butterfingers ROCK!)
WOW - did you ever decrease the antique value of those Barbies! Never owned one myself - my mom wouldn't buy it because she had 'boobs'! Great card, the black matting really sets it off!
Your take on this weeks sketch absolutely ROCKS!!! I love it!
Hi Miss Kristie, first I LOVE your card! The paper, stamp all of it just great! Papa John's is also my favorite pizza, in fact, you won't believe this, but I had to talk my son (regrettingly) out of dropping out of college to open a franchise and now he is one of the recruiters for the Target commercials... I will pass your name on to him, he's always looking for new talent!
neat Halloween card
Nice card - I like the mix of papers.
I love it Kristie!
Love this card, Kristie!!! That Halloween paper is just too gorgeous!

This card is gorgeous, Kristie, and I'm loving that paper! Great facts, I feel like I'm getting to know all of you better too :) P.S. I love Butterfingers, too, and I always get them when I go to the movie theater ;)

Oooh, I love those papers because it can be used for so much more and definitely perfect for Halloween. Look how you did the ribbon - very cute idea. You and I have #s 6 and 7 in common. You cut off all the hair on Barbie? Ohhhh...sorry, I had to laugh because when I was younger, I wanted Barbie and my mom thought Twiggy was better (yeah, back then). I hated that short hair. LOL! Thank you for sharing those fun facts, Ms. Star. Now we'll be looking for you in those commercials so we can tell others we know your blog! :)
Great colour and design paper combination on your card.
I think we ARE sisters. I also cut all the hair off my Barbies and all my dolls. And I am one of 7 kids! I am next to last in the line-up. My mom is one of 15...my poor dad was one of 3 but he was raised as an only by his grandparents! That man did not stand a chance!
my friend's kids earlier in the year cut hair off their dolls (she thought it was off the cat at first!) - and how did she find out - they put the hair in the bin to be tidy so they wouldn't be shouted at. still makes me laugh!
What's Butterfinger candy?
I like the 2 different scales of pattern, it works really well.
Pretty card - the colors are bright and colorful. I like how you put the ribbon. My sister would always cut the barbie dolls hair - she is now a hair dresser. Guess that is what she liked to do as a child and npw as an adult.

Adorable Halloweenie card! Luv the touch of ruffled ribbon...
What a cute Halloween card! I, too love Butterfingers...that's my favorite part of Halloween as an adult....my kids ALWAYS give me any Butterfingers they receive, lol.
OK have to tell I am not crazy about Halloween, however I really like your card. Butterfingers are also happily accepted here too!! I am surrounded by kids!!
