Fall Fun!

We are going to be making these cute little guys using this petal punch from Stampin' Up at my September club. I got the idea from another blog, creationsbypatti.blogspot.com. This punch is great..it punches and scores at the same time!
So we have a mummy, ghost and pumpkin treat holder...it will hold a hershey's kiss, rollo, something along their sizes.
Sorry this side view is a bit blurry...I glued to petals together to form a box. My kids are excited to make these for their teachers...a little surprise on their desk!

Punch Art monkey

I saw this monkey in one of my demo magazines. I thought he was so cute with his head peaking out the window!

Recycling old memo board

It has been way too long since I have posted! Sorry, but life has been a bit busy these days with school kicking into gear. This post isn't technically stamping, but still on the recycling theme. I had this wipe on/wipe off memo board that was worn out. So to get some mileage out of it, I cut out some designer paper and glued it onto the memo board..it now is just magnetic and I will use it for messages/notes.

Recycle/Halloween

What to do with these toilet paper tubes?? I will give a quick overview of a what I did!
First you cover it with your favor designer paper..here I used Stampin' Up Nite Owl paper

Then I took the waffle paper and glued it to the inside of the tube (top and bottom) and ruffled as I went along. I then flaired it out.
I glued a 6 inch piece of ribbon to one side of the tube then threaded it through a scallop circle punched out of the designer paper and glued to the other side of the tube. I then took a strip of black paper and glued it to the inside of the tube to hide all the mess! Notice the waffle paper got smooshed..I had to crinkle it again..this is super neat paper!

I embelleshe my tube and here it is! The top slides up and down. I will fill it with candy!
