Happy Halloween

Good Morning All. I’m not one for Halloween, but my little boy is really excited by it. He has a little costume to wear to go Trick or Treating later and my littlest one has a pumpkin costume :-)

So for the children I've made a little sign for my windowsill using Spook-tacular Chloe with Cauldron...

Bring on the Choir

Hi Folks
Mags here to share a little project using one of Pink Gem's new digi images for christmas.  This image is called Funky Snowman and can be found here.  
I thought he was pretty cool and wanted to make a christmas card that I could possible give to one of my nephews for christmas.
Here is what I came up with:


I took the single image into my graphics programme and copied him so I had six copies.  I then merged the images together to give the impression of a choir of snowmen.  For quickness I used the precoloured image.  
A really quick card to do but quite effective.  Why not give it a go?

Bye for now
Mags

Owls, owls and more owls!

Hello everyone.

I've got a fun project to share with you today.  It's actually a small photo frame hanger, but I inserted three little digis of some cute Christmas Owls instead to use it as a decoration.

I painted the frames with Crackle paint, and then covered the paint in glossy accents with a small sprinkling of crystal glamour dust to give them a lovely sparkle.

I then emptied out my 'blue stuff' embellishment box, and added a few bits and bobs around each frame.

I hope you like my little Christmas Owl hanger!





Happy crafting.

Halloween Spiders Kit


Halloween Spiders Kit  just released at Pink Gem Designs  Here




I made these lovely little Halloween treat boxes with the kit this morning

Here is how I made them :)


Print out the milk carton template on an  A4  sheet of stiff paper/card 
The stiffer the better so what ever your printer will take


As the template comes out of the printer flip it over and feed it back the same way and print one of the colour milk carton templates on to the front of the sheet


Cut around the edge with scissors then score all the lines on the back  including the dotted ones


You should have something that looks like this


Add some double sided tape to the flap on the left


Tucking the flap which has the tape on behind the opposite edge to join them like this


Fold the bottom flaps in and secure with double sided tape


Then push the sides of the top in and pinch together 


When you put your treats inside you will need something to hold the top closed
You can make two holes and thread ribbon through but I think these mini binder clips work well


You can of course print the milk carton template on the back of any patterned paper and follow the instructions above as I have done here


Add a few bits of embellishment and here you are!
