DAY 11 of the 13 days of Halloween


If you got kids in elementary and it's the FALL / Halloween party - there is so much candy everywhere - that's mine!! no, it's mine!!  You get the idea.. LOL  So as Room Mom for my 1st grader  - I decided that I would make these cute yet simple boxes and ask all parents to donate one bag of wrapped candy to go into the box!  they can have their cupcake & drink in class and TAKE HOME.. their boxes  :)   (day #1 was my original box and they went to another grandchild)


All 4 sides are on the same boxes.  I inked with black ink around the papers and cut at 3 x 3.5.  These are the Chinese boxes found at Micheal's   The black square is inked with White CTMH ink and a ghost cut from the Cricut cartridge - Paper Dolls Dress Up cut at 2.5w & 3.51h using the cut on the overlay on #21.  and will be filled with LOTS of candy!!  The paper pack used was from

I know it looks funny but the cord kind of makes it look bunchy  -but it looks good on my end :)  Ya know it's like the camera adding  lbs to the pics. :)

DAY 10 of the 13 Days of Halloween

My lil man, jayden is helping me.  he is overwhelmed with all the candy here and keeps counting everything...  (he is Autistic, if this explains it)



I bought a cauldron from Walmart,   it was really inexpensive and perfect for candy, as it screamed out to me.. decorate me! (my hubby gave me a look of whatever..)  The stickers were from an old stash (like the kids you see here.)  The rest of the stickers were from Stickers Golden Outline from Color Fantastik bought at our local pharmacy.  An idea from Jayden and he had fun with them.  You can see them in the pics below.  The wire ribbon  - I bought at a scrapbook sale, so the "maker" is unknown.  but it's cool isn't it!!

Using the cartridge  Easter 2010 on #50 on the overlay and just hid the bunny on the hide feature on my Gypsy.  **Cutting at size  11.5 in height and 5.50 width. created on my gypsy and using my awesome Expression. ** Close to My heart cardstock.
  **Embossing folder THANKS from Cuttlebug by PC for the top of this envelope and then sanded lightly to disclose the white. (LOVE this effect)  the Leaves were created using the maple Leaf folder & die from PC cuttlebug. and then embossed using a coordinating folder.
**  I handwritten the thank you, name & years on the top leaf.
**The 3 leaves were inked using the Spectrum pad Pumpkin patch ink pad from Stampin Up.     I have had the rafia for years now from Wal-Mart.

I hope you like this pillow box.  Just shows you can use any item from any cartridge for any reason....     Please head on over  to Kristen's Blog.

 Simple but I hope you find it kinda boo-tiful.  I wanted to make a simple card not much on it but a card that says it all..  So tell me in the comments.. What's does it say to you??? seriously - not a trick question..  LOL

  I used the Jolee's Gems Ghost. Paper was from the pack Studio G (sold at Walmart), ribbon from Micheals called Halloween ribbon.  The black from Close To My Heart.  The sticker BOO is from a container that I bought from a yard sale full of buttons & ribbons then I plopped it on top of an orange button.  I used Glossy Essentials on top of the eyes to make it more glossy as well as the lil ghosts on the ribbon too.  Can you tell??


So.. I'd like to invite you to visit Kristen and check out her boo-eautiful project!

See you tomorrow!!!

When I think of Fall I think of leaves and Pumpkins!!  I had a lot of fun creating this card.  Digging into my stash and getting my creativity on...   , the paper, ink, the Bear, pumpkins and the saying are all Close to My Heart.  The leaves are vellum which were pre-made and pre-cut.    I hope you like it!


You can't see it too well on here and I don't know why not since it was scanned into my computer BUT the pumpkins are actually Orange.

ONTO my project now...


ALL items used are from Stampin' Up! Except for the googly eyes and the black thread.  Black & white ink is used around the edging of paper.
  I love this card since there are 3 layers of depth to the card!  I don't know if you can see it really well or not - but the web is stamped on vellum and then a brad is holding the thread which is holding the spiders.

Please head over to Kristen and check out her awesome halloweeny project!

ONTO my project now...
 
 So here we are on day 1 -  I hope you enjoy...   MINI MONSTER cricut cartridge and # 48 on the overlay. Cut at 6in.  Created on my Gypsy and cut using my expression.  he will eventually go to school at the FALL party for my 1st grader.  I love his eyes as you scroll down and see that I used a dopper thingy and inked with the Spectrum Pad Pumpkin Patch from Stampin Up. then the Googly eyes sit on them... The inking around the edging is from the same ink pad.  All papers used are from Close to my Heart. I will eventually put each child's name on his tummy.    The twine is from Wal-Mart and is used for the handle which is held by the buttons for his ears.  I marked with black marker around his tummy



Holds LOTS of lil candy and even a bag of lil pretzels.

buttons for his ears which holds the twine to hold up the bag.










2nd project which was seen on another blog at Love to Crop when I was a guest designer.  It was supposed to be on here but I joined last minute and used it.  I will show it here, just in case you missed it on the 14 days challenge of FALL COLORS.
MANY cricut cartridges were used.  If you'd like to see them - look on my side bar for the Love to Crop guest designer and see all the details.  I used Vinyl for all the words, an apple and some leaves.  for the other icons - I used Epoxy stickers and a few stickers.  it really gave it a POP!  I bought this aluminum sign at Hobby Lobby in the Fall section.  They had various colors..  so many options!!

Your next stop is ... Kristen at  http://huneebcreations.blogspot.com/  Have a great day and please stop back tomorrow for another great project.

Guess what I am making... (trick question) LOL

So excited to share what I am making BUT I am just showing you some of the project on my Gypsy.  I am using Vinyl from oh My Crafts - red, green and black.  Car Decals (cross), Going Places (arrow) & A Child's Year (fonts) are the cartridges used.   Car decals for the Cross I used the hide feature to bring it to one cross.  I will show you again when I am done putting them up on the wall..  DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHERE THIS IS GOING??  OR THE PURPOSE OF IT????
