Frightful House Halloween Candy Holder

Here is one more Halloween project...a quick one. I made this for a sample at the drop of a hat for a store owner to display showing Eileen Hull's new Sizzix House Ornament and a few of Tim Holtz's new Halloween dies. I think it took me all of 30 minutes, and would be great to load up with candy for those special trick-or-treaters. I went so fast putting this together so there are no step outs, sorry.

 

To make these, I covered black cardstock with book pages, and die cut the House Ornament pieces, and then adhered them together, and inked over the edges. I die cut the Halloween pieces and adhered them on, as well as added a hand cut door. I drew on the window trim, and added a face to the cat, and finally added the ribbon and mini tag. Super simple!

Supplies:
(craft sheet, paper trimmer, scissors, die cut machine, two sided tape, foam tape)
-Bazzill Cardstock: Black, Orange, Green, White, Brown
-Vintage Book Pages
-Ranger Tim Holtz Collage Medium: Matte
-Ranger Tim Holtz Collage Brush
-Sizzix Eileen Hull Scoreboards L: House Ornament
-Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Ink: Gathered Twigs

-Sizzix Tim Holtz Thinlits: Frightful Things, Ghost Town, Bat Crazy
-Sizzix Tim Holtz Bigz XL: Handmade Alphabet
-White Gel Pen
-Faber-Castell Pitt Pens: Black, Lime
-Tim Holtz Idea-ology: Halloween Trimmings

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!

Collaged Sparkly Geo Halloween Cards

Happy Friday! I've got a quad of extra sparkly Halloween Cards today, made with Tim's new Geo Halloween Sizzix Thinlits and a ton of new Idea-ology. These were so fun to make, and once laid out (that took me awhile), went together quickly. Sorry for the photos...I'm having a horrible time taking and editing photos, and then there is the compressing. Nothing is worse in blog land than making a project you like but having bad photos to show it.

I forgot to take pics of the first steps, but basically after I laid everything out I used Collage Medium to adhere Design Tape, Stickers, and Ephemera in the new Halloween motif from Tim onto the older but much loved by me Halloween Kraft Stock. Then I added the ribbon, and matted these to cream colored cardstock. I also added some Remnant Rubs to the flash cards.

I die cut the four Geo pieces with black cardstock, and adhered them to colored cardstock bases. Then I filled in the tiles with a slew of Stickles from Ranger.

I die cut tiny Masquerade masks to fit the Paper Dolls, colored parts of them in, and added a few hats cut from the Kraft Stock.

I decided to add wings to a few of the peeps, and then came more Stickles...and then more Stickles. I couldn't stop!
