Hey Stampers!

I wanted to make some pumpkins for Halloween.  So here is what I came up with.  My little pumpkin patch.  I made some pumpkins last year for Thanksgivings this year I wanted some for Halloween. 

I wanted the pumpkins to look like they were in a bin so I used the Big Shot Die Fancy Folds from Stampin Up! (page 200).  I did cut the box down a little then used the Scallop Edge Punch, (page 187) before putting the box together.  To make it look like a bin after it was together I used the Word Window Punch (page 187) added one to every other scallop (sponged with Close to Cocoa).

Pumpkins are made with the Round Tab Punch (page 187).  It takes 10 of them to make one pumpkin I used the DSP paper called Cast-A-Spell (page 161).  Added a little piece of ribbon before taping the last one together.  Then I took a thin piece of Old Olive cardstock around a pencil to make a stem.  What I did to make the cardstock look like hay was I took a piece of So Saffron cardstock sponged it with Close of Cocoa cut it into thin strips ran threw through the Crimper page (188).  My little 5 cent sign is made with the stamp set called Halloween Hoot (page 23)

Hey Stampers!

I’m trying out the new Sweet Treat Cups on page 7 from the Holiday Mini Catalog for a workshop.  I have to admit these cups are really fun to work with, what a great price you get 12 cups for $2.95  Here is a quick & easy way to use them with a box..  You know the saying think outside the box, why not put your candy outside the box (hehe!).

I made a box with the Big Shot Fancy Favor Die.  Used the 1 3/4′ circle punch to make the whole in the box (which you can do after the box is together).  Added some of the DSP called Cast-A-Spell, made a tag with the Batty for You stamp set.  Simple…Simple!
