Fancy Favor Spider Box

If the Bigz Box #2 is my favorite SU! box then the Fancy Favor box runs a close second.  This was one of the door prizes at my 2011 Halloween stamping party.  This is the first year in 10 that I haven't had a Halloween party...I'm getting a little sad :(. 

all supplies are SU!

2012 Halloween Party Door Prizes

These are some pics of the door prizes I gave away a couple of years ago at one of my annual (until this year) Halloween stamping parties.  
                 

All supplies are SU! except for the mason jar and picture frame,  The image in the picture frame is from SU! My Digital Studio.  I can't take credit for the captured ghosts in the jar idea, I think I saw the idea on Pinterest...?

Halloween Labels Pillow Box Favor

I used the Mysterious Manor patterned paper and cut out each of the newspaper ads then glued them onto the pillow box.  Stamped it with spiders and webs and splotches (oh my), then sponged on my "go to" aging ink - Squash and a little Nutmeg too.  Tied it up with some toffee twine and it's ready for Halloween!

Halloween Mummy Popcorn Favor

To make my yummy mummy I used vanilla crepe paper and wrapped it around the popcorn bag several times and taped it in back.  Then I just sponged on a little Squash ink to age him...can't have a clean mummy that's for sure.  Then just punch a couple of circle for his eyes and add the eek die cut.  Oh I also added a little white to his eyes so he looked frightened of what appears to be my...watermark?

Crazy for Crepe Paper Pillow Box Purse

This project came together because of odds and ends I had on my desk, sometimes it pays not to clean as I go (yeah, I'm OCD).  I had just finished a card with my hand twisted crepe paper flowers and I had a few left over.  I also had a couple Easter basket die cuts lying around.  So when I started playing with the new pillow box die I glanced down at my desk and all the pieces just came together like magic, I love when that happens which is actually quite rarely - lol.
I was also pleased to discover that our new pillow box is large enough to hold a gift card.  The purse coupled with either of my last two birthday card posts would make a sweet card & gift combo just by matching (or even not matching) the crepe paper and/or balloon colors.  I hope I've inspired you to make some of your own. :)
Tip: To give your handle more durability I left the Easter Basket in tact and adhered the bottom portion to the inside of the pillow box with just the handle portion sticking out.
PS - I'll post the card I mentioned with the hand twisted flowers in my next post. 

Paper: Onyx Polka Dot, Onyx 
Dies: Pillow Box, Easter Basket

Schtuff: Berry & Lime Crepe Paper, 4" Doily, Pearl

Spring Country Chickens

I love it when a project turns out exactly how I envisioned it in my head! I couldn't wait to get my hands on the new Amuse Studio basket die and as soon as I cut out the first basket and saw the left over piece (from inside the handle) it instantly spoke "hen" to me! It took me about 2 seconds more to realize the new tiny flowers die was absolutely perfect scale for the head feathers, waddle and beak and of course the blue flower for the basket too...it was all just meant to be! Eeeee I had so much fun using all our new items from the Spring Accessories Guide creating my country chickens & basket, I hope you like it and I hope you have fun with them too. 

If you'd like the super easy dimensions for the basket "box" just leave me a comment or send me an email.  

Don't forget to share my Spring Country Hens on Facebook & Pinterest too :o)!

Valentine Treat Bag "Envelope"

This little Valentine "envelope" was quick & easy to make.  I cut the doily and glued it on the front of the bag then glued only the bottom portion of the heart on top of the doily and simply folded the back of the bag over and tucked it behind the heart. Add your sentiment and a Twinkle heart and it's done.  I also put a mini "love note" on the inside but of course you could use it to hold a treat as well.

Stamps: Sending my Love

Ink: Cherry

Paper: Cherry

Dies: Heart Trio

Schtuff: Doily, Diagonal Onyx Stripe Treat Bags, Heart Twinkles

  

Valentine Hugs Treat Box

You can't ever have enough Valentine treat ideas can ya?!  Here's another one made with the Candy Box die.  And the box will still close even with the heart on the flap so you can secure your treats inside.  Or you can leave it open and use it for a gift card holder.  (note: a gift card will not fit with the top closed).

Stamps: That's the Ticket

Ink: Memento Cocoa

Paper: Cherry, Cherry Polka Dot, Vanilla

Dies: Small Bow, Heart Trio, Ticket, Candy Box

Hershey's Hugs & Kisses

Who says Halloween sets are only seasonal...here I go again using another Halloween set in a non-Halloweenie way. I used the "KISSES" portion of the "candy corn kisses" stamp and embossed in silver on French Roast card stock. The Fry Box was cut from French Roast card stock and lined with Winter Sky. The faux Hershey kisses are Heart Trio dies cut out of Shimmer Silver and just turned the upside down and tucked in. We made the card at my "Love is in the Air" workshop last week and the fry box was a door prize :o)

Stamps: Candy Corn Kisses, Mad for Plaid, Sending my Love

Ink: French Roast, Versamark, Eucalyptus

Paper: Shimmer Silver, French Roast, Cocoa, Winter Sky, Sugar

Dies:  Fry Box, Heart Trio

Schtuff: French Roast Twill, Silver Embossing Powder

Conversation Hearts for Valentine's Day

I think our Amuse Studio Candy Box Die set is my favorite box die ever.  Not just because of all the accessory dies that come with it but because depending on where you add the adhesive you can make it open long ways as it is here or short ways (like in this post).  

Stamps: Sending my Love, That's the Ticket, Essential Greetings

Ink: Grapefruit, Cocoa, Memento Cocoa

Paper: Grapefruit Petite Polka Dot, Cocoa, Vanilla, Sugar 

Dies: Candy Box, Ticket Stubs, Holiday Tags, Small Bow

Schtuff: Blush Baker's Cording, Valentine Washi Tape Collection, 1x8 Cell Bag, conversation hearts candy

Hugs & Kisses Candy Box

Red, Black & White are standard Valentine colors but Valentine or not its one of my all-time favorite color combinations.  For the stripes on the bottom I just used a piece of our onyx treat bags cut to fit on the front of the box.  I colored the heart with Copics and hand drew the "patch" with the Copic blender pen.

Stamps: Love is in the Air

Ink: Memento Black

Paper: Onyx, Cherry, Sugar

Dies: Candy Box

Schtuff: Onyx Stripe Treat Bags, Copic Markers R24, R29 & Blender 0 

Candy Cane Gift Card Insert

What a quick and easy way to make a sweet little something for someone using our Gift Card Insert die & Holiday Tags stamps set.  I colored the images with Copic markers...my most favoritest way to color!

Stamps: Holiday Tags & Naughty or Nice

Ink: Cherry, Evergreen, Memento Black

Paper: Cherry, Evergreen, Sugar

Dies: Gift Card Insert

Schtuff: Copics YG17, YG99, YR24, E37, candy canes

Ghostly Treats

 A quick & easy Happy Hauntings treat box made with our Candy Box die.  Stamped the Web Background with Latte ink, added a Happy Haunting Ghost and topped it off with a black organdy bow.

The tag is a CASE straight from our Holiday catalog I simply added it to one of our 1x8 cello treat bags with a couple of Halloween pencils.
