Now that I've made all of the formal introductions, let's get onto the projects!
For my first project I couldn't wait to try out a few of the new dies, especially the Tiny Take Out Box die and the Tricky Trio dies.
I started with a Summer Sunrise card front which I stamped with Autumn Pattern Pieces (more about this later on in the week) in Orange Zest. The corners were clipped with a 5/8" circle punch and then mounted it to my True Black card base. Black rhinestones were added to each of the four corners.
I cut this Tricky Trio die from True Black cardstock. LOVE all the detail in this, don't you? It was adhered in place with a bit of foam tape.
I die-cut the base of the Tiny Take Out Box from Summer Sunrise cardstock. Before assembling it, I stamped it with the Autumn Pattern Pieces again and added one of the cute sentiments from the new Trick or Treat set.
I added a handle with a 3/8" strip of True Black cardstock and accented with a few more rhinestones. I die-cut the spider from True Black cardstock and heat embossed the Tremendous Treats: Halloween image with Apricot Zing Embossing Powder. I added a hole and threaded it with True Black Baker's Twine and hung it from the handle.
This is SUCH a cute box! And SO easy to put together since it is all one piece! The interior measures 2-1/4" wide x 1-3/4" deep x 1-1/8" tall, so you can actually fit quite a bit in it too!
You could also recreate the same ensemble in different colors for even more looks!
For my next project I wanted to use another of the new Tricky Trio dies along with the Notched Star Banner dies!
I die-cut the top banner from Orange Zest and the bottom plain layering banner from Summer Sunrise. Notice how these were designed so that you could layer them right on top of one another and have just a bit of an extended edge on the bottom layer to serve as a mat. I just adore the detail this banner adds! And the great thing is that the stars would work well for birthdays and Christmas too! The Tricky Trio die was cut from True Black cardstock and mounted on top of the banners.
The Tremendous Treats: Halloween bat was die-cut from Smokey Shadow cardstock and stamped in True Black. I folded his wings up just a bit and adhered him under the corner of the Tricky Trio die-cut.
I stamped the bottom edge of my Simply Chartreuse card front with Background Basics: Super Stripes using True Black ink.
I really like how the stripes add balance to the whole project.
My next project is another ensemble that uses an untraditional Halloween color scheme!
For the card, I started with punching nine Classic Kraft 1-1/8" circles, edged with Fresh Snow ink, and nine 3/4" circles. The colored circles include Aqua Mist, Summer Sunrise, Ocean Tides, Simply Chartreuse and Melon Berry. I arranges the circles and adhered them in place.
The little ghost from Polka Dot Parade #7 was die-cut from vellum cardstock and stamped with the coordinating image with Fresh Snow ink. I then flipped the ghost over and added his smily face with True Black ink.
Notice the Tricky Trio die I used in my last project above? I wanted to show you here how you can pop the letters out and use them by themselves as well! I die-cut them from white cardstock and die-cut the "or" from another of the Tricky Trio dies. I used some white crochet thread to add borders above and below the sentiment.
For the tag on the small treat box, I started by die-cutting Classic Kraft cardstock with Fillable Frames #7 die. I heat embossed the sentiment from Trick or Treat with White Filigree Embossing Powder. I then brushed Fresh Snow ink around the edge of it. 1/4" circles in the same colors as the card were added along the bottom edge.
For a little something different, I die-cut the new Tiny Take Out Box die from Clear Cardstock. I tacked the corners together with Score-tape and then helped give it a stronger hold with strips of washi tape on the corners.
I tied the tag onto the treat box with white crochet thread.
The little ghost from Polka Dot Parade #7 is just too cute and I had to make at least one more project using the little guy! I opted to mix in the new Bubble Talk set from Maile Belles (more about this set later on in the week). I started by stamping all of the ghosts and faces with True Black ink. I used a T1 Copic marker to add a bit aof shadow and definitions around the ghosts.
The speech bubbles were all die-cut from white cardstock. I stamped this one with the coordinating image in Orange Zest and added the "boo" sentiment from Polka Dot Parade #7.
This one was stamped in Summer Sunrise and another sentiment from Polka Dot Parade #7.
And finally Simply Chartreuse!
A simple card, but definitely not short on the cute factor! You could even swap out what they're saying fro even more options!
I don't know about you, but I am always on the lookout for quick and easy little treats I can put together for classmates and friends. I discovered that by punching a couple circles in the new Notched Star Banner die-cut, it could be used as a pencil tag for pencils.
To keep it festive, I used traditional Halloween colors, Royal Velvet, Simply Chartreuse and Orange Zest.
The sentiment (from Trick or Treat) was added in True Black onto a strip of Simply Chartreuse cardstock and trimmed with a bit of orange Zest cardstock. Quick, easy and very inexpensive!
I was inspired to pull out my Cover Plate: Triangles die and mix it in with one of the Tricky Trio dies.
I die-cut the triangles from Vintage Cream cardstock and stamped them with various patterns found in Tiny Triangles. I used another untraditional scheme of Terracotta Tile, Melon Berry, True Black and Orange Zest. I arranged the triangles randomly and adhered them in place.
I die-cut the Tricky Trio die from Smokey Shadow cardstock and a second time from Orange Zest. I popped out just the "or" from the Orange Zest version and adhered it within the Smokey Shadow version for extra pop.
As a finishing touch, I added a line of stitching with the Sew Simple Borders set and True Black ink. The spider was added as well, from Mr. Bones.
Love the modern look of this and how fun it was to create!
I have one last quick and easy treat packaging idea for you today.
I used an A1 envelope to hold some Reeses Pieces candy, adding the vellum window to the front to give the recipient a peek at what's inside.
I die-cut the Fabulous Frames from Canyon Clay and stamped it with Polka Dot Basics in the same color ink. Vellum was added to the back of the die-cut to cover the square that was cut from the envelope. I also stamped the house image onto the vellum so the moon and stars would be visible.
I die-cut the house from white cardstock and stamped it with the coordinating image from Tremendous Treats: Halloween in True Black. The sentiment (from Trick or Treat) was added under the house in True Black as well.
