A Silhouette Witches Boot

Hi all! I have another Halloween  project to share with you. I purchased this cutfile form the Silhouette store a few weeks ago and I'm just now getting around to actually making it. Take a look.....

 

I cut the boot out in black cardstock first and then out of Authentique Halloween papers. The ruffle on top is SU! striped ribbon  gathered-stitched on to black glittery ribbon (Walmart) and then hot glued to the boot. A few eyelets and twine for the laces and this boot is all ready for gift giving!!! I'm gonna fill it with some sweet treats and a giftcard for my boy's teacher - hope she likes it!!!

 

Well, I think I'm finished with all my Halloween projects for another year!!! Thanks for stopping by my blog today!!

Trick Or Treat

Hello! Do you have all your treats ready for Halloween.... or are you like me and like to wait until the last minute to get those treat bags ready for when those lil trick-or-treaters come knocking on your door. Luckily for me , my son has a really small class so I can do it the night before!! I have my goodies bought ( now I just need to resist eating them!!!), so I geuss I'm almost ready and I still have lots of time before the big night!!
But , meanwhile, I have been busy getting my papercrafting treats made. like this card and treat container I made for my son's teacher.....

 

I had so much fun making these! Of course, my Cricut came in handy making the little treat box from the Artiste cartridge. I used a new technique I found on Splitcoastsatmpers forum called Twisted Card - you can search YouTube to find the tutorial for this really easy technique.

 

 

The spider was also cut from the Artiste cart. I stamped this potion label from CTMH's Magic Potion's set.

 

 

The tree and fence were cut from the  Mini Monsters cartridge and the vampire is from a Michael's stamp set , which I colored with my Copic markers.

 

 

 

The insidehas a pocket that  holds a giftcard. The sentiment is from SU's Fang-tastic set ( retired, I think). The papers are from a 6X6 minipad called Oct31 from Fancy Pants Designs. The orange dotted paper is from my stash.

I even decorated the back with more Fancy Pants paper!

 

I'm entering this project over at Shopping Our Stash Trick Or Treat challenge.

Halloween cards

Hello!  Happy Thanksgiving Day to all my Canadian friends... hope you had a great long weekend!!! It was busy at our household this weekend... the kids threw a suprise birthday party for me on Saturday! There was lots of balloons and decorations everywhere!!  Then we enjoyed a yummy Turkey supper with all the fixings .Mmmmm, so good!!!

This window was created from the Advent calender die . The stamps are both from the dollar bin at Michaels and the dp is retired SU!

A quickie card made with a Cuttlebug embossing folder and a label from Spellbinders The sentiment is from  a SU set ( retired) , Scary Skeleton.

I just adore this set from Stampin' Up! Out On a Limb. Lots of masking used for this card, but I think it's was all worth it!

Oh, how easy was this card!! Just cut some strips of scrap cardstock, inked the edges and then "wrapped" the front of the card and a few googly eyes and it's done!!
