Hey there! It's time for another project tour from the Creation Station Designers!
Let's talk Halloween this week - shall we? We're going to focus on the Fall Fest Stamp set, and the Tiny Treat boxes from Stampin' Up!
I don't go crazy for Halloween, but it is a fun holiday, and my kids love it! For the candy, I'm sure. So let's take a look at a few things I came up with. (don't mind the bad photography today....not sure why I've got a "halo" effect around the bottom of my photos.....)
First up is this really cute card.
I started with a black panel and added some stars using embossing paste and our stars decorative mask.
The pumpkins from Fall Fest were perfect on here. I layered them with Stampin' Dimensionals, doubling the dimensionals to be two thick for the squatty pumpkin in front. This really helped to add depth.
I finished it off with some Blackberry Bliss ribbon and a silver basic button.
Next up, I created a treat holder using our Hamburger box die. This went together quickly.
I stamped the ghost onto black cardstock with Whisper White ink and heat embossed it with white powder. Added a little pumpkin friend, and tied the box up with some burlap ribbon, Blackberry Bliss ribbon and a bit of Old Olive two tone trim.
Lastly, I created a simple, but cute treat container. (this would be perfect to gift to a neighbor, a teacher, or keep on your kitchen counter.....or on your stamp desk!)
I wrapped some DSP from Monster Medley around the jar. ( You can grab these jars from your box stores on the cheap!) The 12" strip of DSP did not go all the way around the jar, so I had to piece it together. To cover up the seams, I die cut a piece of black cardstock with a Windows framelit, and trimmed off 3 sides, so I just had the top curve. This kind of mimicked the shape in the jar. It also gave me a non-busy base to add my ghost and pumpkin.
To complete the jar, I added some Blackberry Bliss ribbon and a tag - die cut from the Hamburger Box die, and stamped with Enjoy from Num-Num.
I hope you are inspired to create something fun for the upcoming Halloween Festivities!
