Thanks for a fabulous Halloween!

Well, we had a blast at Anthologies on Halloween!

We took pictures and did a very fun Make n' Take and had a great and fun crowd all day.

We had pooches, humans and even Big Bird show up for the festivities!

For those of you who couldn't come see us yesterday, here's a peak at the craziness and cuteness you missed.....

If you didn't get by this weekend, you'll want to make the trip to see the fab new fall and thankful projects that are new and now available for Creative Buffet classes.

Come see us! Fall and Thankful projects are selling now .... you won't want to miss out!

Wear your costume, come for a treat and beware of our crazy bunch when you get here! (Don't worry... nothing too scary for the kiddos!)

Carving Out Memories!

Designed by: Tracy Pounds

Pumpkins come and pumpkins go, but a Jack-O-Lantern steals the show! Halloween is quickly approaching... and very soon you will be "Carving Out" some memories of your own. Consider creating this 12x12 double layout to preserve those wonderful memories. This layout is a feature class at Anthologies and you may create it on any of our Creative Buffet dates (see calendar at www.anthologiesbyme.com).

While you create, you will also learn about Coredinations color-core cardstock and learn some embossing & distressing techniques. You must reserve your class kit at least 24 hours in advance of your selected Creative Buffet date.Call Anthologies to reserve your class kit today at (817) 282-2622.

You've been Boo'd!!

What a great time we had at our October Scrapstasher's meeitngs! Thanks to all who attended! It was so much fun creating our "You've been Boo'd" treat containers together! If you would like to know more about Scrapstasher's and how to become a part of this creative group, please visit the website at http://www.anthologiesbyme.com/ or contact the store at (817) 282-2622.

We used cute papers, ric rac, and a "boo"tiful felt spider (a die cut at Anthologies) to alter Crystal Light containers...Pringles containers work great too! The container will be filled with treats and the "You've been Boo'd" poem with instructions on how to keep the Boo'd chain going. I posted the poem below for you.

"You've Been Boo'd"
The air is cool the season fall

Soon Halloween will come to all

The spooks are after things to do

In fact, a spook brought this to you

"BOO" is a shield from the witching hour

Just hang it up and watch its power

On your front door is where it works

It wards off spooks and scary jerks

The treats that came with crypted note

Are yours to keep, enjoy them both

The power comes when friends like you

Will copy this and make it two

Then others here among our friends

Will give warm fuzzies that do not end

We'll all have smiles upon our face

No one will know who "BOO'ed" whose place

Just two short days to work your spell

Or a big zap will strike your tail

And don't forget a nifty treat,

Like something cute or something sweet

Please join the fun, let's really hear it

And spread some "BOO's" and Halloween spirit.

To keep the Boo’d chain going…

1. Enjoy your treat.

2. Within 2 days, fill the container with special treats

3. Secretly deliver to 2 neighbors/friends

Happy Haunting to ALL!

Tracy :)
