Danger! Contents Highly Addictive

Good Morning, My Crafty Friends!

Welcome to another Flaunt It Fridays Challenge! Today's challenge is to Flaunt the skull and crossbones from Mini Monsters. The only requirement is that it not be used for a Halloween project. Here is what I cam up with:

f

This is a pop-top can filled with chocolates. It is a fun way to give a gift.

Here are the steps in making this fun gift.



You will need and can with a pop-top lid, safety can opener, super glue, and something in which to fill the can.

You are going to turn the can over and open it from the bottom with your safety can opening. Empty the contents from the can and clean it thoroughly.

Now fill your can with whatever surprise you would like to hide inside.

Using super glue reattach the bottom of the can. It is probably a good idea to put the contents in a sandiwhic bag or baggie with a twist time. This will help protect the contents from the glue.

Now the fun part, Decorating!

Here is what I used to decorate this can:

Cricut Cartridges ~ Mini Monsters - skull and crossbones, Gypsy Wanderings - Danger

Fiscars Punch

Cuttlebug Embossing Folders ~ Seeing Spots, Swiss Dots

Computer generated sentiment

Atg or if you really want it to stick, Mod Podge

I hope you join us this week in Flaunting your stuff at Flaunt It Fridays!

Happy Crafting!



Toilet Paper Roll & Tag Scrapbook

Mom and i made this together for a little boy who goes to the zoo alot. We used the Zoobaloo Cricut cartridge for the letters and the animals, Plantin Schoolbook Cricut cartridge for the tags, and DCWV Safari Kids and DCWV Animal Crackers for the paper. It's so cute and fun!

Card Set and Door Hanger

Here is a card set and door hanger I made for a swap that I am participating in.

I found the directions for this card box from Split Coast Stampers. I love this paper. I found it at Hobby Lobby. I used Accent Essentials for the scalloped squares and Opposites Attract for the "K".
I altered this door hanger for my partner. I painted this with acrylic paint in sky blue. I cut the snowman from Stretch Your Imaginations using the shadow feature. I added an orange gem for the nose and used Rain Dots for the eyes, mouth, and buttons. I added snow flakes using white acrylic paint. I used Modge Podge to glue the snowman onto the door holder. I then added snow using wall spackling. I just frosted it on and waited for it to dry. Once dry, I painted it with white acrylic paint. I then used Modge Podge to cover the whole thing and sprinkled Martha Stewart glitter while it was wet. Once dry I added a ribbon and snowflake. I really like the way this came out.

Saundra's BOAB

I am finally posting pictures of the items I made for the Box On A Budget swap I participated in on the Cricut message board. It is such a fun swap and really takes me outside of my comfort zone.

This a picture of the ATC, altered binder clips, book mark, card candy, tags, and altered notebook I did for my partner.



This is the altered door hanger for my partner's favorite holiday.

I altered a pop-top can and filled it with my partner's favorite goodies and I also alterd an acrylic picture frame to be a post it note holder.


This is an altered picture frame. I really love the way this turned out.

I made a note card holder and filled it with cards, tags, and small note cards.
This is a window frame card and cuts that I made for my partner.

This was great fun. Thanks for looking at my pics!
