SKdigis challenge #5

happy monday! this week over at SKdigis our theme is spooky nights , using a ghost.
extra special is our barb is sponsoring us this week to celebrate her new stamp set. shes included one of sonias designs in this set YAY WHOOT WHOOT sonia!
im entering this over at DLART where dianas having a fantastic linky party all this month. be sure to check that out i know shed love for you to play along.

i made 2 projects for this challenge. i used "little ghost" for both of these

the first is a test tube holder. you can find directions on splitcoaststampers or utube.

i added googly eyes to the cutelst lil ghosties :)

and added mini marshmallows for the edible ghost poo.i thought i had seen white m&ms which i thought woulda been cute but guess i was wrong because i searched high and low at wallyworld and target to no avail..

the second candy holder i used my cricut and walk in my garden cartridge using the bread tag envelope.i forgot to write down the size sorry about that. i also used a punch to create the scalloped edge. i made the spider by using a hole punch, glued that to the handdrawn spider trail using a white pen for eyes.

here it is opened. i just used a glue dot to hold the candy in place and another glue dot to keep the front closed.

thanks so much for visiting me today i hope ive inspired you to pick up a digi or two and join in our fun challenge :) your sweet words always make me smile thank you for that :) happy crafting!xxxshelly

whimsical wednesdays no tricks just treats!

happy wednesday!  this week over at whimsical wednesday were to create a bag or box thats a fun way to wrap up treats. i couldnt make up my mind on just one thing so i made several. this is going to be a bit picture heavy so thanks in advance for sticking it out :)

before i show you what i came up with i wanted to  let ya know we have 2  sponsors this week. wow huh! each will be giving away some fun  to one random winner each

we have 

 regina from   the cutting cafe offering up 3 files of your choice  of her awesome digi goodness

 patsy from prairiebirdboutique sponsoring us with some amazing crinkle ribbon. one random winner will get to choose a ribbon bundle

ok now on to my projects... all the tags and ribbons are from the cuttin cafe and prairiebirdboutique. included colorbox fluid chalk too.

this is a gift for my daughter. this is one of those sweet test tube holders. i found the directions on splitcoaststampers. my bestest rose( <~~~ go check hers out) and i got together and made these. the soap bottle is from target already decorated.

 the cute as evuh sticker is from EAD designs , way cute vinyl  stickers! 

this creepy spider also from ead designs. 









                                             the next one

for this lil altered lunch bag i used my cuttlebug and cut a marquee image on the front of the bag then added some acetate. the bat is from my cricut and hello kitty cartridge.

  

i used a stamp from justritestampers (witch way to the treats set) all over the bag. 

 

next.....

i used a glassine bag for this. the cute lil ghostie is from my cricut and paperdolls cartridge.

 the candy corn are printables from the cutting cafe set too.

just a side view i just glued the ghost and candy onto the front of the bag. 

and last but not least........

here i used one of reginas fun lil milk carton printables from her halloween/fall milk carton set. i dont own the programs that you can cut these with so i did it by hand.very easy except this particular set has cut outs. i didnt want to mess up the sweet leaf that is on this so instead i used my cuttlebug and made a leaf then adhered it where the original leaf cut is. a duh moment after i had this assembled already was that i may have been able to run this thru my c/bug with my die cut therefore getting a cut image in the carton. the leaves are almost exactly alike. ill have to try that out later.

i think it turned out pretty using another tag that i distressed a tad

from reginas set behind the leaf tho.. i used colorbox fluid chalk and colored in the leaf then added distress stickles. i also added some rhinestones around it. did a little dot  doodling on the box and added a button.

just wanted to show that the tag can be prettied up too. this is the same tag used on the test tube project. i covered the circle sentiment with the crocheted flower.and  added a few little extras.

i added the beautiful crinkle ribbon ( it has a little glimmer to it that i cant capture with my cam )

i cut the heart from aida cloth with my c/bug. some tulle ( i think thats how thats spelled ;) ) twine, lil flower. raffia and a felt leaf.

well i sure hope ya stayed with me this long :) thanks so much for visiting and i hope ive inspired you to play along with us this week and share with us some of your treat wraps :) 
have a super day! xxxshelly
