***scroll down 2 posts for Halloween party post***

Hi everyone just sharing some ATCs, I hope you enjoy them. Breast cancer generally touching everyone, and I am no exception, my maternal grandmother died from it, my mom, is dealing with it, and my SIL is a survivor!!

here we go:

 All 6 for the swap

all images are from ALTERED PAGES

all digi stamps are from A DAY FOR DAISIES

German Scrap from COLLAGE STUFF

brads from MAKING MEMORIES

Card stock from STAMPIN' UP

Stickles by RANGER

I printed the digi images first on white card stock, and colored them in with markers by STAMPIN' UP, then also printed them on vellum, I glued the vellum over lay down on top of the colored image. With an extremely fine point marker by FABER-CASTELL I wrote "HOPE" and "BELIEVE" on the ribbons of the image. if that ATC had a ribbon that said "Hope" then on the ATC with a calligraphy tipped marker I wrote the other word..."Believe"  etc.

Challenge #11...THE GAME - Punch Buggy (late)

***Please scroll down for the Halloween party post***

Hello, sorry this is late. Once again things have been CRAZY around here, and I have had to pit and choice what and where to go with my computer time.

Saturday Ron went to the ER again, and was put in the CCU, his sugar was super high, he also had A-fib (from the sugar and apparently a BEYOND badly infected toe)

Thankfully, he is not Critical any longer, and is in the telemetry unit. BUT...they have to take the toe. It is the big toe on his bad foot...so we think the fall on the 19th (outside) perhaps he got a little something in his shoes, which started an irritation, and then his shuffling of that foot kind of on it's side when not in shoe and brace (bed time and in the am) for bathroom trips, most likely opened the irritation.   I saw both of his feet earlier that week, and they were ok...no red spots no sores no nothing.

They are going to do a cardiac work-up before the surgery.

So here is my 

PUNCH BUGGY PINK!!

This is an 8" X 10" piece that will be put in a shadow box frame, which will also be decorated.

Time for the ritual meal

"Witches Stew"

Bubble, blubber, squirm and gloop, Boiling broth of bat's tail soup. Wobble, slobber, liquid goo, Add the sole of one old shoe. Spooky shadows dance around, Of frogs and rats and snarling hounds. Steam swirls rising to the roof, Add one small ear and one old tooth. Gnarly, scratchy, tickle and itch, Stir round and round to make it rich. Mushy, sticky, sizzle and stew, They're making mischief just for you! ©2002 Gareth Lancaster After our Samhain/All Hollow's Eve  ritual and meal...  **{one lucky commentor(that is a follower) will win this ATC, along with another surprise ATC or 2} We always have a story... WAILIE-TAILIE ©KingPoetry.com 2008 Hear ye, hear ye, all and sundry hearken to my tale of woe, here I stand, all groanie-moanie dealt a bitter witch's blow. There was I, a golden oldie, wifey, son and daughters two, simple life all cuddly-wuddly, enemies were far and few. Then last Apple-blossom Sunday in the woods to gather fruit, youngest daughter, lucky ducky, finds a ring beside a root. Back at home for munchie-wunchie daughter's ring her finger fits, dances round with hokey-pokey, loves that ring to dong-dang bits. Door bursts open - bitchy witchy! Says we stole her magic ring, daughter's heart goes achey-breaky wicked witch begins to sing: "Eye of newt and toadie-woadie, spider's blood and mad dog's mange, conjure with me, creepy-crawlie, make these thieving children change!" Next day early, wakey-wakey, feels just like a nasty dream, at the table, brekky-wekky, daughter Minnie starts to scream. Slowly she goes shrinky-winkie. ring falls off and rolls away, thinner daughter - holy-moley! I don't quite know what to say. Daughter Dawn is snoozy-woozy, can't quite get her brain awake, great idea from Mumsey-wumsie, gives her coffee-flavored cake. Brother Bill is mamby-pambie, laughs aloud at nothing there, sees my face, gets giggly-wiggly, sits there laughing in his chair. Wife blames me, gets snarly-warly, spell has gone straight to her head, grabs a knife, goes swishy-wishy, I run out before I'm dead. Now my life is topsy-turvey, knifey-wifey's gone insane, sits and stares all airy-fairy says that spiders eat her brain. Yawnie Dawnie's sleepy-weepy, Silly Billy thinks it's fun, Skinny Minnie's teensy-weensy, can't you help me - anyone?   THANK YOU SOOO MUCH FOR VISITING!! {This was NOT the party I had planned, sadly time, finances and transportation were not on my side. so I did all this between 5:30 am and 7:50 am EST.  I HOPE you all enjoyed yourselves :) } *** Remember, a follower who comments will be winning the above ATC (Samhain Greetings), plus 1-2 other ones. Drawing will be open until Next Saturday night, 11/4 at midnight.
