Halloween Treat Bags

Hello and Happy Halloween!!

I have a quick post to share today

of the treat bags I made for

my co-workers.

 I used 2 files from Pretty Paper Pretty Ribbons

to create my treat bags.  The topper is from

the Handled Treat Topper file and the cute

ghosts are from the Monster Mash file.  

I stamped the cute little faces with

the Peachy Keen Sweet and Innocent

Face Stamps.

I embossed the middles strip with a

Cuttlebug Candy Corn folder.

The label is from the Silhouette Store

and the sentiment is from Crafty Sprouts.

Hope all your little ghosts and

goblins have a sweet and safe

Happy Halloween!!

I have to admit, I totally scraplifted this

idea from Barb at BugBites, you

can see her original here,

Her's has a lot more detail,

mine was a last minute decoration, I

made it the day before the party when I saw

Barb's sign!!  The adorable boy and girl

the leaves were from the Silhouette Store.

 

Next I made a banner to hang over

Hi Pumpkin!!

Hello and Happy Saturday!!

I have a quick post to share today.

I have not joined in on the

challenges over at Peachy Keen

for a few weeks, so this project

is for this weeks sketch challenge.

Here is the sketch:

Here is my take on the sketch:

I kept my card clean and simple.

The papers are from

Bo Bunny Apple Cider Pack.

I used a spellbinders Lacey Circle

die for my doily.  I found the

cute little felt pumpkins at

Target in the dollar bin and knew

they would be perfect with

some sweet Peachy Faces.

I used the PKSC-22 October Stamps

The banner is a My Creative Time Die

and the sentiment is from

Jaded Blossom's "Let's Talk Turkey"

stamp set.  The button was from

my stash and I added a little

Tea Dye Distress Ink

I will entering this card

Craft It Up & Link It Up "Say it with a Sentiment" Week 2

Today is my design team post for Craft It Up & Link It Up Linky Party hosted by Tara of Craftin Desert Divas! Every other Monday will mark the beginning of a new semi-weekly linky party and you could win fabulous prizes!!

This linky party theme is
SAY IT WITH A SENTIMENT.

The sponsors are

  $15 Gift Certificate

     $10 Gift Certificate

 

The more you link up, the better chance you have to win.  Visit 

Craftin Desert Divas for all the rules and to play along.

Here is what I created for this linky party....

I made a tag using another of my Julie Nutting Prima Doll Stamps.

You may get sick of seeing these as they are my latest obsession!!

I used several different techniques making this tag.  I started with a

Prima Tag. Next I used an ArtC stencil and Tim Holtz Distress ink

to stencil a pattern to the corners of the tag.  The stencil was called

Houndstooth, but I thought it looked like bats!!  Next I sprayed the

entire tag with Tsukineko Goosebumps Glimmer Texture Spray.

This spray gave the tag a very cool bumpy texture that glimmers.

It is hard to see in the photos, but this tag has a lot of texture and

shine!!   I inked the edges of the tag with some more distress ink.

Here is my doll, I used two different papers for her.  One was

Echo Parks "Chillingsworth Manor" and the other was Authenique

"Enchanted"  Once again I added distress ink and lots of Stickles in

Black Diamond and Orange Peel.  I also added some black tulle to

the bottom of her dress. 

 These sentiment stickers were from the same paper packs and more distress ink. 

I also added a prima flower which I spritzed with Dazzling Diamonds

Glimmer  Mist and Black Diamond Stickles.  To finish off my tag, I

added some Webster's Pages lace and black ribbon, a homemade stick

pin and Recollections Bling.  I added more black tulle and crinkle

ribbon to the top of the tag.
