October Afternoon blog hop!

You have arrived! Have you had fun blog hopping today? If you are lost or have NO idea what I am talking about try starting HERE at the October Afternoon blog :)
Today we hop around celebrating the coolness that is October Afternoon Rubber Charms!
So many fun shapes and designs to choose from!

Here I took a couple from 5 & Dime to use on a "sweet" card--


I sprayed the background with the Red Wagon SprINKler and used lots of miscellany from 5 & Dime. The little ice cream sundae charm fits perfectly over the image from the sticker sheet!
And having boys (and boys that LOVE space!) you KNOW I am all over the ones from Rocket Age--
Tin Type SprINKler sprayed on the shipping tag, combined with lots of Rocket Age give it a "spacey" look ;)
And this card with the rubber charm rocket ship was from my video on the SprINKlers and making the ink circles featured on the OA blog last week.
Lots of uses adding just the right amount of "charm" ;)
Be sure and leave a comment....do you love the rubber charms? Which ones are your fav? What project would you use them on? Each design team member is giving away a rubber charm prize pack so be sure to visit all the blogs and comment! Winners will be announced Monday.
Next up is the super fabulous and talented Roree!

    I think the charms are adorable, but had been at a bit of a loss as to how to use them. The Rocket Age charms are my faves, and, looking at your tag projects, I wish to make a few sentiment tags of my own to stuff in the pockets of jackets/shirts belonging to several of my best friends! Thanks for the inspo, hope you're having a fantastic day! :D
