I'm not really convinced that the next holiday around here is halloween... The only REAL reason I am starting to believe, is that I walked into Target yesterday, and low and behold the dollar bins have halloween goods. They were pretty well picked over already; but I found some paper and ribbon sets.Of course, as most of you know I can't pass up paper at a decent price. 8 sheets... $1... thats cheap. :-) I wanted to stick with using what I had on hand for this, and I picked up this $1 stamp from Michaels months ago, preparing for halloween. So, I've created this little gem.
I've used the patterned spots paper (from the 8 assorted papers pack) as the background (set on black cardstock). I layered core'dinations black paper under the cat/phrase paper. I used my cuttlebug borders for the 'stitching' on the black paper. The ribbon is also from Target, in the dollar bins.
I hope this inspires you to glance into the dolalr bins the next time you stop by Target! Be sure to stop by in a bit; and check out what I've picked up over the course of yesterday and today!!

It seems like I can never find anything good in those Target $1 bins! You did a great job!
Isn't t amazing what you can create with these items! Great job.
Your card is really adorable. I love the $1 stamps I pick up at Michael's. I think this past Sunday I picked up 8 Halloween, 3 Fall, and an adorable owl stamp. At $1 a piece, how can you pass them by..and it"s really great seeing projects that don't cost a fortune.
Fun and spooky! I'm stilling waiting for Halloween to hit our Target! Can't wait for the great deals!
You don't have to be rich...just creative. :-) Really cute card!
I love the dollar bins at Target, I stop by them every time we go. Sometimes I am lucky and they have a lot of scrapbooking stuff, and sometimes they hardly have anything. I Did find some chipboard books for only $1 today in their regular scrapbooking section, so thank you for the inspiration!

Gotta love a good $1 bin find!
I stocked up (AGAIN) on the Target bins... oh boy... love it! And I have a handful of Michaels $1 stamps too lol :)
I work at Michael's and watch the $1 stamp bins like a hawk! You can get such SUPER cute stuff there... there will be even more awesome Recollections (our brand) scrapbooking stuff coming soon for the holiday! Did you see the 99 cent layered embellishments for fall, halloween, and christmas we have too? Siiigh.... I love my job! :)
