Tricks and Treats!

I cased this card. saw the pumpkin bag idea somewhere in my blog surfing. My apologies I did not save the original link..and still can not find it. This is the 1-3/4 inch circle punch. I punched it twice to make the Pumpkin treat bag. I took a scrap of sahara sand prints dsp and snipped into it, then crumpled it to make the inside "fluff"

Sponged the edge of the pumpkin too!

All Supplies are Stampin Up!

Stamps: pumpkin patch, all holidays

Paper: sahara sand, cast a spell, black, pumpkin pie

Ink: black

Accessories: sponge, black brads, gingham ribbon, dimensionals, scallop edge punch and a marker for doodling.

For the New baby

Not mine- my husband's co-worker! Made a FABULOUS matching gift bag and note card but missed the Photo op before the gift left the house! I used the pumpkin patch set and last years Halloween paper with the pumpkins on it and tied a big bow with the pumpkin pie wide striped ribbon!!! all I can say is STINKIN CUTE!!!! I know-- I should re-create it but I have too many other things to make on my list and this baby has been waiting about 2 weeks!

the Bucket is stuffed with a Halloween bib and matching sleeper. then I tucked a sweet treat in there for Mom! go knows she needs the M&M's about now!!

Enjoy!

ps. the bucket is from the dollar spot at the red bulls-eye store a few months back. bought a whole bunch and never used them. Anyone else have that problem????

I tied the bow through holes punched in the bucket with my cropadile! keeps the ribbon from sliding off.

ETA : The holes are about a inch apart behind the bow. use your cropadile

in one hole and out the other. tough to get the 2nd ribbon through but it can be done. I also put some sticky strip on the back to hold the ribbon

Its a pink Piggy

ETA: iphone app is called COLOR CANVAS.

Love My Digital Studio- a nice creative outlet when you don't have any energy to be in your stamp room. I made this last night after scrap club to unwind!

I took this picture with my iPhone. used an app to edit the piggy to be pink. All edits to the picture were done on the phone! then I loaded it to my computer.

Recipe: My digital studio
