FINISHED IT! FRIDAY...

on a chilly Saturday morning!

Great pages from ten different scrappers this week. TEN SCRAPPERS - that's awesome for Halloween week. A week of party planning, classroom activities, football games, costume planning and candy gathering. Good for the ten of you!

And thanks for sharing your wonderful pages! Lots of Scrapy Land purchases justified this week - always a good thing! Great QuicKutz usage and further enabling!

Here you go - pages pages and more pages...

Thank you so much for sharing your pages with us ladies! Great work, great inspiration and great additions to your albums!

And remember - you can click above on the images themselves and be taken to the full galley for closer inspection!

One quick item to share today - and one quick apology. First the apology.

Miss Charlie made a quick-and-easy box that I was going to share yesterday. But for some odd reason I could not get the images downloaded from her email. She made a pattern for us and everything - but I can't get the files out of her email. It's the strangest thing I've ever seen. I can see the pictures, but there isn't anything to download. So check out Charlie's project over at the QuicKutz Gallery. As for the directions - I'll use her pattern in a quick video project sometime in the future because it's a great Scor-Pal project. Thanks Charlie - please forgive my techno glitches with downloading!

As for a share - how about a Swedish Halloween idea. I know, it's Halloween today - but for some this might still be doable! For those of us that live near an IKEA.

Veronica emailed me last night and told me she got invited to a last minute dinner party. She needed a quick idea of what to take to the host and hostess. She decided on a bottle of wine, actually, a bottle of GLÖGG which is usually a Christmas wine, served hot and eaten with gingerbread cookies. One Swedish company produces a new "flavor twist" each year - and this year it is mandarin orange. Mandarin ORANGE ladies! Halloween orange! Her hostess gift problem was solved!

Veronica used a Silhouette cut door hanger as her base, and then decorated it with white pen, tiny letter stickers and a QK Pumpkin.

So if you're in need of a last minute hostess gift tonight - and live near an IKEA, run pick up a bottle of GLOGG and decorate a few bottle tags. Tell them your Swedish friend Veronica gave you the idea. {Thanks hon!}

I'm headed outside to oversee {photograph} the pumpkin carving process. Because scrapbook pages await!

Happy Halloween Scrapy Land Divas! Be safe, be smart and don't forget to smile!

I'm here for your habit...

Hi Susan and BOO to you. No problem and thanks for linking to my BOO box - please let me know if there is another way I should mail projects to you. Is the one I mailed yesterday a problem too or will that work - I just attach files and here at my end of the world you would not download them but just use "save as".

Very nice work, everyone.

Susan, I have to comment: Glogg doesn't come from a bottle; my grandmother is rolling in her grave. It comes from a pan on the stove or, for modern-day Swedes, from a crockpot. As you heat it, you get to taste it for hours and hours, just to make sure all the seasonings and alcholic content are just right . . . To buy it in a bottle takes all the fun out of it (hiccup!).

Great pages this week! Normally I'd take time to comment on all of them, but this time I'm going to just say GREAT JOB to everybody...my feet are tired from trick-or-treating with the kids and I'm looking forward to my extra hour of sleep tonight :) The Glogg bottle & tag is such a cute idea!!

Diane, thanks for your comment. You're so right, you can make you own glögg (and it's smells yummie in the house) but for a fulltime working mum it's so much easier to buy it in bottles ;-)

I have to add that Ikea sells the non alcoholic glögg, not this orange bottled white wine glögg.
I confused Susan with my "swenglish" ;-)
