Halloween Kisses

Hi Everyone!

I wanted to share with you the project my daughter Rebecca and I made for the Jaded Blossom Monthly Challenge! The theme was to make a Halloween treat. I found the PERFECT container a couple of months ago at Walmart. I saw some Spiderman Aqua balls that are filled with flavored water (they taste awful!). I got them for my kids but only one of them liked them. I knew it would be perfect for Halloween treats since it looks like a potion bottle. I cut open a door in the back to fill it full of kisses and some crinkle paper. Then taped it shut with packing tape. I used the Jaded Blossoms Halloween Kisses for this project. I stamped the witches hat, "Hocus Pocus", and "a wee bit wicked" ( I had to choose the wicked one because my husband is always singing that song "Popular" from Wicked the Musical and he ALWAYS gets it stuck in my head....) My daughter Rebecca helped me with everything!!! It looks so much better in person but I am still waiting to get my camera back from the manufacturer so I could only take a picture with my phone :(


Here is a pic before I took everything off the bottle:

October Sketch Blog Hop Friday October 19th


Hi Everyone!

Welcome to the Sketch Blog Hop. Everyone has had so much fun doing these it's turned into a regular event!

If you came from Zenita's Blog then you are in the right place. If you want to start at the beginning then head over to www.craftycardgallery.com.


 The purpose of this hop is to show how all of these talented bloggers can take the same sketch and come up with totally different cards. If you've never used a card sketch before, give it a try! Be sure to check out all of the fabulous cards at the different stops!





When I was looking at the sketch I couldn't figure out what I wanted to put in the tree. Then when my daughter was having a tough day I thought about "Hang in There" and thought a monkey would go great hanging from the tree.



Supplies:
cardstock
ATG gun
Zig two way glue
Stampin' Dimensionals
Gypsy
Cricut
Life's a Party and Just Because Cards Cartridges
Stickles

Thanks for stopping by!

As soon as I saw the Rockstar mat stack I knew I wanted to use my new Teddy Bear Parade Cartridge to make a card. I love the little rockstar bear! She is SO cute. Her outfit reminded me of the 80's so I want to use Neon paper like in the 80's. :) I had a "You Rock" stamp and wanted to use it with my "always" stamp so I cut it apart to rearrange it better on my stamp block. I also knew I had a "You Rock" stamp from Jaded Blossom so I wanted to put them on the bottom of my Hershey Kisses to put in my little bag that came in the kit.I also cut out some of the background paper to put on the bottom of the kisses as well. I painted my buttons black with nail polish to match everything else and added the rhinestones to the center of them.
