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!

~*~ Holiday Blog Hop ~*~

Welcome to the Paper Secrets Holiday Blog Hop. I made a couple of things to share with you today. I created this lovely paper tree by punching a LOT of 1 1/4" circles of Mistletoe Paper, then used pearl floral pins to secure them in rows to a styrofoam cone.  As I neared the top, I had to use some adhesive so that they did not flare out, but sit in the cone shape.  At the top, I stamped 3 stars and adhered them to the top of the cone.  Supplies: Styrofoam cone Pearl Floral Pins CTMH Mistletoe level 2 paper CTMH Mistletoe Creative Basics paper D1320 Shining Star Stamps I created a second paper tree using instructions from Tracey Mason .  I created an accordion flower with a stamped sentiment for my topper on this one.   Supplies: Styrofoam Cone CTMH Mistletoe Level 2 papers K& Co paper D1380 Just for the Holidays Stamps I created a total of four paper trees to sit upon my mantel!  The "subway art" was a free printable from eighteen25 ....

April Showers Blog Hop

Thanks for joining me for another weekend of Blog Hoppin Fun!   If you have come here from Tina's Blog , you are on the right path!  Keep on hoppin until the end :) April Showers is our theme, and I went with the "shower" theme and made baby cards for baby showers!  I am addicted to making these stacked present cards lately!  I first saw one that my friend Jayma made, who found it on Vicki's blog.  Recently, I saw a couple cute ones on Haley's blog too.   I cut my paper strips at 1.25 tall x 3, 2.25 and 1.5 long.  Add a ribbon down the center, or just a bow on top and you're set!  I used the Sweet Baby stamp set and Polka Dot Alphabet for my sentiments.   Now I'm all set for the next baby shower..... (though I don't know any preggos right now).   This design is also great for Birthday Cards too!!!!  I made two each of these cards and stamped Birthday sentiments on them :) Supplies: BOY: Miracle Level 2 Sweet Baby...
