Halloween Treats


A Happy Halloween to you all! :o)

These are some of the quick little treats I have made ready for tonight.



I used the fabulous new skinny Cello bags found in the New Annual Catty (page 161). These are the perfect size for filling with M&M's :o)

I've decorated them very simply using the Googly Ghouls stamp set from the Autumn / Winter catty (page 27) - and of course I've used the brilliant new Googlies eyes!

The topper is made using one of the Framelits from the Apothecary Accents set - I just folded it in half and stapled it onto the Cello Bag, covering the staple with squares of Pumpkin card.

Ribbon Wreath Card


This is one of the cards we made at my Technique classes this month. 

We used retired 1/4" Grosgrain ribbon to weave this wreath, but you can use almost any ribbon to do it. It takes quite a lot though - this one took just under 2 yards!

The background was created by running Chocolate Chip card stock through the Big Shot with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder. I then lightly stroked the Chocolate Chip ink pad over the embossing to make it 'pop' a bit more :o)

Stamps : Curly Cute
Colours : Garden Green, Chocolate Chip, Real Red
Big Shot : Woodgrain Embossing Folder
Ribbon : 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon - Garden Green, Real Red

Technique - Colouring With Chalks



This was one of the cards we created at one of my Technique classes in the past couple of months.

I used it to show how easily it was to use our Blender Pens with mediums other than ink. You just touch the pen to the chalk block to pick up the colour and then use them in the normal way to colour your image.

Stamps : Simply Soft (Retired), Perfect Punches
Colours : Melon Mambo, Pretty in Pink, Whisper White
Big Shot : Lacy Brocade Embossing Folder
Ribbon : Melon Mambo Scallop Dots
Punches : Extra Large Oval (2" x1 3/8")
