Halloween Trick or Treat Blog Hop Day 2

Welcome to DAY TWO of the Fabulous Halloween Trick or Treat Blog Hop!!!!!

You should have arrived from Denise's Blog  The hop begins on Kathryn's blog if you'd like to start at the top. 


Make sure you check out my DAY ONE post, if you missed it:  CLICK HERE!

Today I'm proud to show you the adorable treat bags that I'm making for my kid's friends for Halloween :) 


I used the CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge to cut everything on this treat bag.  I set it at 5 1/2" for the bag itself (So I could get 2 treat bags per 12x12 sheet). 
I created the candy corn image by cutting the pennant shape in white, orange and yellow cardstock.  I then cut the colors to make a candy corn, and of course flipped the pennant to be a triangle! 
The candy corn was stamped with "Trick or Treat" from the Close to my Heart stamp set Thriller (2010).
Finally I cut a tag in white and used some OLD Sassy Strands to attach it to the handle. 

VERY simple and easy!  I know the kids are going to love them!  (Well the candy that will be inside anyways)

YOU can pick up your very own Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge!!!!  Order yours by 10/31 and I'll send you an Idea Book PLUS a treat for FREE!!!!!  CLICK HERE to order!

CTMH- Washi Tape Card

Do you WASHI???   Washi Tape is one of the new and super trendy products being used.  I'm not afraid to jump on the bandwagon :)  CTMH now has a Slate Polka-Dot Washi Tape (and I HOPE there are lots more to come!!!)  I also have picked up a couple others at Michaels recently. This weeks Color My Heart Color Dare is JUNIPER.  I decided to use Juniper as the accent color for my card today. I used the black banner stamp set from Artiste Kudos , CTMH's Slate Washi Tape , CTMH's Silver Shimmer Trim and a black arrow washi tape.  The sentiment is from Artiste Birthday , stamped in Juniper, then popped on foam tape. A simple card like this, called for some dressing up of the inside too.  I stamped Happy Birthday from Perfect Fit Birthday and added some Slate Washi Tape to the bottom. Head over to Color My Heart to check out the other color dare entries :)

CTMH-- September Stamp of the Month- Fall Favori

Welcome to the Close To My Heart Stamp of the Month Blog Hop for September 2012, featuring Fall Favorites   All artwork on the hop will feature Fall Favorites!  This is a set of 11 stamps and it's really making me want FALL---- NOW!!!  How cute is this set!?  If you have come here from  Susan's Blog y ou are on the right path. For my card today, I used the new Clementine paper pack, which is so versatile!  I cut the tag from Art Philosophy and stamped Fall Favorites in Brown Staz-on ink, then colored the pumpkin and leaves with my new markers.  I found that they don't blend and shade terribly well on Kraft cardstock- but the color showed up.  I added some of my favorite Burlap Ribbon to the card :) Do you think I like pumpkin pie???  Just a little bit ;) The September Stamp of the Month- Fall Favorites is available September 1-30th.  With any $50 purchase, this set is yours for $5....
