In my opinion, there is no time like Halloween season to try to conquer one's phobias. One of my biggest is arachnophobia. This morning I went downstairs to feed my guinea pigs and found a huge spider on the wall. I let him survive, but I hope he moves out of sight soon. Ugh. If only all spiders were as cute as this one in Lawn Fawn's Heebie Jeebies set. This is my entry for the Getting Texty Lawnscaping Challenge .

Finally beat the clock for Lawnscaping Challenge #41 . It's a bit of a stretch but all the nautical themed DT entries along with the sketchy scallops got me thinking about the last flings of summer. I used Lawn Fawn's newest set, A Birdie Told Me, along with some of their decorative papers from the Bright Side and the Fa-La-La collections. I just cut out wavy shapes from the paper and a skinny oval for the surfboard. Stamps and decorative papers: Lawn Fawn; supplies: Stampin' Up!

This week, Operation Write Home is teaming up with Lawn Fawn to gather up some cards for service people to send to their children. This is a general purpose one I made that says "hello" on the inside. Tried to emboss with a texture that reminds one of the aroma of fresh toast! Hope the young person who may receive it will like it!
