halloween projects...

first, the witch's broom: i used a 4" x 11" piece of Howlstooth designer series paper from stampin' up!, sponged the edges with espresso ink, then just cut slits along both edges, careful not to cut through the middle portion of the paper. after that, apply sticky strip along the back of the middle portion of the paper.

for the broom stick, i used a piece of 7' x 11" espresso card stock. i ran it through my crimper and distressed it with white craft ink. if i would have had the woodgrain embossing folder, i would have used that instead of the crimper because that would have looked much better, in my opinion, but oh, well. Ü

here is a close-up of the tag i attached. i also stamped directly onto the cotton ribbon that is around the middle.

next, is the "trick or treat" card. super simple! just used some scraps of designer paper and the images were stamped with versamark ink and embossed with clear embossing powder.

and finally, a cute little treat jar. this was my first attempt at making rosettes. they're surprisingly simple and so fun!! you can find several videos on youtube or other tutorials all over the web.

here is a closer look at the one on top of the jar...

        here is the rosette tag.            



...and one final look at all 3 finished projects.
hope you enjoy them & thanks for stopping by!! Ü

test tube halloween.

LOVE these test tube projects--soooo cute!


i used the "batty for you" stamp set and the new white trimmed taffeta ribbon.

here is the pattern for the holder. i found it @ scribd.com. you start with an 11"x4" piece of cardstock. score on the long side at 1/2", 1 3/4", 4 1/4", & 5 1/2".
score on the each short side at 1 1/4". i used the 1" circle punch for the hole to hold the test tube.
there is sticky strip as pictured as well as on the other side of the little flap near the 1" hole to hold it all together.
enjoy! Ü

boo boxes.

i made these a few years ago after seeing them at stampin' up!'s convention. they're so fun (& cute!) to make. the chipboard letters were covered with white craft ink and then embossed with irridescent ice embossing powder...it's kind of hard to see the sparkle, but trust me, it's there. Ü
