Pals Halloween Blog Hop

Thank you for joining us for the Pals Halloween Blog Hop. We hope you enjoy our virtual trick-or treat hop where you will either learn great tricks for your creative projects or enjoy a blog candy treat. You should have just left stop number 24 on the Pals Hop - Sandra Conner at Pretty Provisions. If so, you are in the right spot. If you get off track, the full blog lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the amazing creations.

My project this month is a Halloween 3D project, a sign using the Witches' Brew Designer Series Paper and the Halloween Bash stamp set. I had been searching the Internet for ideas and love the block look with little sayings popping up in home decor. I took that idea and make my little block sign with a 5x5 canvas that I had in my craft stash. I think this would look great on a Halloween party buffet table next to the drinks. I also used the Black and Orange Stampin' Glitter, Decorative Label Punch, Scallop Oval Punch (would be great here but I had to fussy cut since I don't own it yet LOL), Pumpkin Pie, Old Olive, and Elegant Eggplant markers were used to color the print on the paper, silver glitter paper, vanilla smooches, some google eyes I had left over from last year's Halloween line, and the WONDERFUL WASHI tape! :) I also used the sponge daubers to add Basic Black ink to the sides of the canvas and to distress the paper on the front. As for the back, you could cover it as well with some Basic Black cardstock to have it stand on a table, or leave it open to hang on a wall.

For this month's Trick or Treat, I choose Treat!! So, please comment below and someone will be randomly picked (by random.org) from the commenters below to win this sign along with 4 cute little treat holders:

The treat holders can hold little snack bags of candy, be made into a gift card holder or card, or use it as an embellishment for a scrapbook and put a photo inside it. This is the old tried and true matchbook design where the flap tucks in to the little front fold. I love making these, they're so easy!

To enter, please leave me a comment about what you like about the project or something you are looking forward to creating this holiday season. Comments will be accepted until Monday 10/14 at 5p.m. Pacific. Winner will be announced at noon Pacific on 10/15. US Mailing addresses only please. Winner must email me ASAP and no later than 10/22 otherwise that person will have to forfeit and I'll have to pick another winner.

Thanks for stopping by! Keep on crafting!

The next stop is Margaret Moody at Margaret Moody, stop number 26 on the Pals Blog Hop! Thanks for visiting – and I hope to see you next month!
