Halloween Treat Bags

Hi my Bloggie Friends!
Today I have some treat bags that I made for my children. They are little too old to trick or treat so I thought I'd make them a little something.

I am submitting these into two challenges: Fantabulous Cricut and Cooking With Cricut. Both challenges are to make something scary or not so scary. This idea is not original. Made By Momo featured this in one of her Ustream classes. I just turned it into a Gypsy file :)

The Details:
Cricut Cartridges used: Mini Monsters and Plantin Schoolbook
Solid Cardstock: Recollections and lots of various scraps from my scrap bin
Peachy Keen Stamps: PK-692 Monster Mash Face Assortment
Black and White Gelly Roll Pen
Bic Mark It in Red
Ribbon from American Crafts and Hobby Lobby
Stickles: Orange Peel and Starry Night
Ranger Glossy Accents
Clear gift bags: Walmart
Candy to fill your bags

Spooky Spider

Hi There! I wanted to share the card I made for Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge on My Creative Time. The challenge this week was to make a card old style, meaning no electronic devices. I was looking at my K&Company Spooktacular paper and used it to come up with my card.

This is a 5.25 x 5.25 card and folded on the side. Everything was hand cut from the paper except the background for which I used my paper cutter. The black cord and button is from my stash. I popped up the sentiment and large spider. I then added Black Diamond Stickles and Orange Peel Stickles to the large spider and used some Glossy Accents for the eyes. Of course, I had to use my white gel pen to give it that little extra something to finish it off. I have to admit the paper made it pretty easy to put this together.

Happy Crafting, Friends!

Halloween Tent Card

I made this card for Emma's Throwback Thursday Challenge. This week the challenge was to make a project using Cricut Paper Doll Dress up and "Frame" it. I decided I would try my hand at a tent card. I found the tutorial for this on Split Coast Stampers.
