Time to get spooky.......

I wouldn't say we celebrate Halloween but the girls do love to dress up and visit family for some sweet treats.  Chloe would like to give some treats to her friends at school so here are some ideas for you,  for all your Halloween goodies. 

 

 

Here they are close up.......

 

 

A simple gift tag creates a great finish for a little treat bag.

 

A little witch gift box ties together and can hold 3/4 little chocolates (I love this one xx)

 

A mini purse holds a mini chocolate bar or packet of Haribo.

 

 

For the last one I have used one of our gift bags folded it in half and finished with a belly band, I love the autumnal colours on this one.

 

Hope you like it xx

 

 

Boxes, Boxes!

As Christmas is on it's way (less than 12 weeks now)  I have been thinking about how you can make small gifts look gorgeous with pretty, decorated packaging.

I purchased a candle and wanted a little box which it could fit in.  I've used the candles colours as my inspiration for the packaging and here is the finished gift.

 

 

Supplies used:

 

Stamps:  Chalk Talk, Flower shop

Inks:  Pear Pizzazz, Crushed Curry

Paper:  DSP Afternoon Picnic, Very Vanilla

Embellishments:  Large Pearls, Cotton Ribbon, Linen Thread, Pistachio Pudding Ruffle Stretch Ribbon

Accessories:  Score Board, Pansy Punch, Chalk Talk Framlits

 

I love it when you have an ideas and it ends with a great project.

 

Hope you like it  xxx
