Expanded Candy Wrapper Treat Box

&

Halloween Notelets

Last week I was busy preparing for a secret trip.....

and on Wednesday I travelled to Scotland to surprise

the Tartan Stampers....a group of Scottish Stampin' Up!

Demonstrators. The group were getting together

this weekend to stamp, swap and share classes.

I had a fabulous time.

I have spent the weekend laughing so much

my sides hurt! It was great to meet up with

great friends I had made whilst I was a Demo

in Scotland, and make new ones.

I truly am blessed that my stampin' addiction

has introduced me to so many great folk

on both sides of the 'Big Pond'.

So, I am posting my 'secret' project from Mum and Dads

house in Carnoustie...where I am staying for a few days,

before heading back to Houston later in the week.

I miss Alistair and the kids, but it is nice to

spend time with Mum and Dad on my own!

OK,

Here is my offering at the get-together!

This is a Halloween Candy Treat box...

I used the Candy Wrapper die (#120890)

but, it is a little wee, so I extended it by folding

the card before I ran it through the Big Shot.

I will be posting a video when I eventually get home

so call back next week!

I used the Firghtful Sight Designer Paper to

cover where the folds/extension is.

Then I added a little ghostly tag....the ghost was

made with the Owl Punch.

You turn it upside down and cut the feet off!

Then the girls made 2 little Halloween Notelets.

This one is a Punch Art Bat,

again, using the Owl Punch, and 2 oval punches

for the wings.

And then this one is a Punch Art Devil....

Isn't he cute??!! - - If you can call a Devil CUTE!

Can you guess the punches I used for him?

Face: Owl Punch

Ears: Bird Punch (wings)

Nose and horns: Circle Punches

Beard: Blossom Builder Punch

The original idea was taken from a topper

by Cathy Bell, but I had to change it a

bit as punches had retired!!

THANK YOU Tartan Stampers for allowing

me to be part of your weekend!

I loved all the projects!
