Halloween Treat Bags

Hello and Happy Halloween!!

Every year I make my grandkids Halloween Treat bags, and usually try

to make them the same as whatever they are dressing up as

 

Here are this year's bags!!

So my granddaughter Kambria is 11

and she is dressing up as the Tin Man

but, her's is a Tin Girl??

Her costume is called Tin Heart Throb.

I tried to come as close as I could.

I combined elements from Too Cute By Jessica's

Superhero Kids 1 and Superhero Kids 2 files

I had to get creative with this one.

The ax and tin hat are from another file

I used the Peachy Keen In the Garden Faces.

Now my next grandchild is Tristan and he is 10

almost 11 and he only decided a few days ago

that he was even going to dress up.

I had to settle for what his mom could

find and that was a Ninja!!

I used the Girl Ninjas file from Too Cute by Jessica

I did not have the boy ninja file, so I just

left the hair off!!  I am not at all happy with

the way the background came out.

but oh well!!!  I used Peachy Keens Moodies face stamps

 Next up is Vincent and he is 9

as you can see, he will be Iron Man

I used the Superhero Kids 2 files from TCBJ

Next to last is Kayla, she is 7

and a total tomboy!!  She wanted to be a Ninja Turtle.

I used one of the Member Free files from PPBN

I used a Prima Stencil and Distress Ink

to create the cool brick wall background.

Last but certainly not least is my

dear little princess Bella who is 5.

She is crazy about Frozen so who else

could she be but Elsa!!  For this one, I used the

Frosty Fairytale Friends file from TCBJ

I used Peachy Keen Sweet and Innocent faces.

I added some sparkle with Wink of Stella Glitter Pens

and some Want 2 Scrap Bling.

 

Thanks for stopping by and have a

safe and happy Halloween!!



Sweet Tweets

Hello, and Happy Monday.

Hope you all had a great weekend.

Mine was very busy.  We postponed

celebrating Easter with the kids and grandkids

because my hubby was sick last weekend.

So we had all the kids and grandkids over

yesterday.  We bbq'd and did our easter egg hunt

plus we celebrated my granddsughter's

 and son-in-law's birthdays.  Plus my car has been in

 and out of the shop for  the last two weeks and the bad news

on that is I have to take it back again tomorrow! 

UGGGHHHH!!

Anyway, I have another card to share with you.

I made this cute little card using another one of the

Peachy Keen Cottage Cutz dies.  It is called

Happy Bird.  The umbrella is from the

Duck Accessories Die Set.

The white layer is cut from the

Spellbinders Fleur Di Lie Rectangles Die.

I added some Nestabling from Want to Scrap.

It is hard to see, but I also added some

clouds to the white background using

a stamp from the Peachy Keen

February 2012 Stamp of the Month Kit.

It is the stamp for the foam from the beer!!

Here is a close up of the sweet little bird.

I added some chalk to add some detail  to the her.

My sentiment is from the Peachy Keen June 2012 SOTM kit.

It is stamped onto a Spellbinders Ribbon Banners Die.

I inked it with Distress Ink in Peacock Feathers.

I added some glitter tulle and a vintage button from

3 Girl Jam with a little twine.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

Baby Carriage Gift Bag

Hello all My Crafty Friends!!

I have a cute little baby

gift bag to share with you today.

 I started with a kraft gift bag.

The next layer is a piece of ivory cardstock

that I inked with TH Distress Ink

in Fired Brick and Scattered Straw.

The next layer is a piece of 6x6 paper

from My Mind's Eye "Playdate" stack.

Not sure what pack the red paper is from,

but I cut this doily using my new

We R Memory Keepers

Lucky 8 Punch.

The top layer is my adorable baby in the buggy cute

from Simply Charmed.  I have embossed it, and

added a cute little Peachy Keen Face, I believe

it is from Wide Eyed Kids.

I cut these last year for a swap, and have never

used it.  I have about 8 of them so you may

see this image again!!

I mounted the baby buggy on an action wobble.

I added some buttons from October Afternoon

accented with Twine.  I also added some pearl flourishes

from Want 2 Scrap.  The ribbon at the top is

from 3 Girl Jam and the trim at the bottom is

from Webster's Pages.

I am entering this in the following challenges:

Peachy Keen - Oh Baby 3-D Objects
