Treats for my friends!

These are a few of the treat boxes I have made for some friends!

I had so much fun making these!

I cut 2 pieces of black paper 71/4 x 4 1/4.

Then I put them together and ran them thru the Big Shot 

with the smallest Spellbinder Rectangle to make the handles.

I used the MS Drippy Goo punch on the bottom of the orange DP.

The images are various Halloween stamps that I have in my stash.

They are from Stamps of Life, Stampin Up, My Pink Stamper and I don't know?!

 

Next, take small white Kraft bags and cut to 4" tall from the top.

Adhere a plain black panel to one side of the shortened bag and a decorated black panel to the other side of the bag. I used sticky tape so it would be extra strong when I added candy to the bags.

I cut some tiny strips of orange and black paper. I ran them through my crimper tool, to make some decorative strips to throw in the bags to give them some umph!

Finally, I tied some creepy ribbon onto the handles.

I think I will enter these into the Just Us Girls Challenge!

This weeks challenge is to design a 3D/Template with a Halloween theme!

Spooky!

Boooooo!!!!!

Tis the season for spiders and ghosts and goblins...oh my!

I had lots of fun making this card. My colors were inspired by the color challenge this week at

The Play Date Cafe.

I made the water colored background with stamping inks. I watched a tutorial from a
Stampin Up demonstrator who has the greatest web site. I used Color Box Ink by Stephanie Bernard. Love, Love, Love these new inks! I took an aqua marker and wet the entire piece of watercolor paper.  I dipped my aqua marker into the different inks and painted the watercolor paper. The ink spreads onto the paper and makes this really cool background.

I stamped the Spider Web (Stamps of Life)with Versamark ink and heat embossed it with black embossing powder.

I also stamped and heat embossed the larger spider (Stamps of Life) and then punched it out with a circle punch. I added some wiggly eyes to the spider...tied some black floss to make a tag and attached it to the top of the card.

Finally, I added purple satin ribbon and tied it in a pretty bow!
