I was sending some calligraphy magazines to my friend, Nan, and thought I'd make a Halloween card. I found an easy design on the Brother Canvas Workspace. I added a sticker to the front of the card.
The card was a pop up. Too fun.
A lot of the T Ladies have been showing Halloween or Autumn mugs/cups in their posts. I was sad and a little jealous because I didn't have a Halloween mug. Then while rummaging in the cupboard for a clean, Christmas mug,(any mug will do as long as it's clean.)I happened to find a blue mug with ghosties! What joy! What rapture!
The Halloween mug belonged to the Eldest. In college, she worked as a customer service rep for a catalog company. One Halloween, her supervisor had a mug filled with goodies at each rep's station. But now, the mug is mine!
Drop by hosts, Bleubeard and Elizabeth’s blog to find out what the rest of the T gang is up to. If you want to play, include a beverage or beverage container in your post. Don’t forget to link your blog from Bleubeard and Elizabeth’s page.
Definitely a good day when you find just the mug you are looking for! I have so many mugs that some have to be on a high shelf where I can't even reach them. But I can never resist buying more. They aren't seasonal, though, mainly made by ceramics artists.
ReplyDeletebe well... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
I wish I had the room to store them. Mugs would be a fun thing to collect
DeleteLove your ghostie mug. Gorgeous card for Nan, too. Stay safe, happy T Day, Valerie
ReplyDeleteI’m so happy I found the ghostie mug
DeleteFantastic Halloween card. And I love the black cat and ghost mug. Great find! Happy T-Day!
ReplyDeleteThe black cat is solar powered and he dances
DeleteLove it.

DeleteWow, what a fabulous card! I love your design with the pop up centre and your happy Halloween writing - stunning 😀. The little black cat and ghost mug are wonderful too - perfect! Take care and happy T Day wishes! Hugs, Jo x
ReplyDeleteIt's not my design though I chose the papers. I used the design and template found on the Brother Canvas Workspace for the Brother Scanncut machine
DeleteSuch a nice post. I really love that card and how can you go wrong with a ghost mug? Enjoy your day.
ReplyDeleteI'm happy I found it.
DeleteGreat card! Nan's a lucky girl. :D And nice that you found just the right mug for your Tuesday post!
ReplyDeletePerfect timing
DeleteWow I love the card you made for your friend CJ and I love your ghost mug allot-so fun. Happy T wishes Kathy
ReplyDeletePerfect addition to the mug rotation
DeleteThe ghost mug's a real treat! Happy T Tuesday :)
ReplyDeleteIt's my color, but I like your orange mug with the black cat better 🎃
DeleteSuper Halloween card, CJ. Am I the only T-lady who doesn't have a Halloween mug? ;-(
ReplyDeleteHappy T-Day. Stay safe and stay well. Hugs, Eileen
A Día de los Muertos mug would work, too.
DeleteWhat a fun Halloween surprise for you! such a sweet mug ~ Your card is great! I don't have a scan and cut or any of the silhouette machines, I think I'd get lost. Good for you for venturing into that world (LOL!) Happy Halloween!
ReplyDeleteThe ScannCut is easy to use lots of free projects with easy to follow directions
Deletewhat a delightful card, and how great to have found that cute Halloween mug too! I don't have a Halloween themed mug so may have to look for one once the holiday has ended;) Happy T day!
ReplyDeleteBetter look now because all the Christmas stuff is starting to come out.
DeleteThat's a cool card you made. And what a surprise finding ghosts on a cup in your cupboard. I'm like you ..hey if they leave it when flying the nest it's mine. Actually youngest son made some really cool pottery that he never cared about so I claimed it. I have told him he can have it back but so far he hasn't wanted it.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a Halloween mug - I may look for one when I'm out :)
ReplyDeleteThe card looks good.
Happy Tuesday, I can't believe it's mid-week tomorrow!
All the best Jan
Do it quickly because here a lot of Christmas stuff is already out.
DeleteYeah! Everyone should have a Halloween mug.
ReplyDelete🎃
DeleteWhat a fun card! I love the bold colors.
ReplyDeleteHappy Tea Day,
Kate
Very cute card CJ. I like tat playful haunted house. And what a cool mug. Hope you had a super T day. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteIt was a productive day
DeleteCute card! Oh, cat, btw.... I´m a copy-cat today, I hope you don´t mind, I finally (!) saw your ticker and it made me so happy I included one, too...
ReplyDeleteYour ticker made me smile.
DeleteI am leaving this generic message for everyone who visited and participated in T Tuesday. I want to thank you for visiting. You may have noticed I was offline off and on for three days. I kept losing electricity. Each time, I was able to visit a few people before the electricity went out again. The third time, I was leaving a comment for Valerie when I heard a huge BOOM. There was a flash of light, the windows and walls shook. It felt like an earthquake to me, but it only lasted a second or two. I believe they have finally fixed the electricity in my neighborhood. I won’t know until I get to explore the internet, but it may have been very local. I know I saw two bucket trucks driving up my street less than an hour after it happened. With no heat, the temperatures both nights dipped into the mid-20s F (low 4s C). Thanks for your participation and thanks for hopefully understanding why I was unable to visit for T this week.

DeleteThat is such a cute Halloween card and mug. Happy T Day and Halloween! Have a great week.
