Halloween - Matching 3-piece set






Hi Everyone, I hope all of you are doing well.






This year for my Halloween project 
I  made a matching 3 piece set consisting of 


Halloween card, Treat Box and Treat Bag



I used 2 digital images for my creations. It may seem like one but Yes 
I used 2 !  I layered them in my graphics program and was very pleased
how nicely they blended together. I think those talented artists 
who created them had me in their minds and by the way 
did I mention the digital images are freebies!

The digital image of that cute little sweetheart with 
the pumpkins is by a talented lady Sue from  
Grand9Creations and you can find her amazing Freebie 
I used HERE and plenty more!
The second digital image is a Freebie by talented Linda from
Random Thougths at Linda's Place and you can find her freebie I used HERE .
Have a look around her blog as well. There are plenty more amazing things
to look at there too. Thank you for sharing ladies!

Digital sentiment "I am too cute to spook" is by Wendy Tunison (When Witches Go Riding Kit)
Digital Sentiment " Spooky Treats" which I also used last year is by 
lovely Amy at Leighs Paper Creations Digital Stamps



So here comes my Matching Halloween Set 



 Halloween Card








Matching Treat Box - filled with sweets 
with a side view picture next to it

I have never made this type of box and sadly do not have a degree
in engineering (LOL) so I  used a tutorial by one of the lovely
Inkettes (Fabiola) at Inky Impressions  and you can find her brilliant
tutorial HERE









And last in my set and I hope not least  is 
my matching Treat Bag

For this one I did a bit of recycling.... yes you guessed it...
it's the cellophane bag. 







Other ingridients I used to create my matching set:

punch - MS PATP
dies - Cheery Lynn, Nesties, Joy!,Marianne
Promarker - colour Pumpkin
Pearls and gemstones  ( colour changed with Pumpkin Promarker )
Pearl Hearts - (colour changed with Pumpkin Promarker as well )
Mini bow ribbons - in Orange and Black colours
Googly Eyes









And also many thanks for all my lovely followers who
leave comments on regular basis. It makes my very painful
an uncomfortable days fly a bit quicker.
Thank you also to my new followers as well.
You know who you are :)

Christmas Decoration in Teal


* Hi Everyone *

Where does the time go!? There is another
Giveaway at STUDIO 12 -
- Blog full of amazing creativity
and inspiration
Go and check them out



Over at Polka Doodles  this week the challenge is
 "Favourite Holiday and Colour Teal"
My favourite holiday is Christmas time so I made a Christmas decoration.
The trickiest part was finding a paper in teal colour.  
At the end I liked the pattern of the paper I used and had to  re colour 
it in "Serif"  (the pattern of the paper was originally yellow colour ).



The idea for this decoration came from
watching "Create & Craft " TV. One of the demonstrators 
which I can't remember who now was sharing
an idea of a home decoration and I thought I could have a go
at it one day and brighten up my house with something new
and  here it is!

























Ingridients:
Digital paper (original colour yellow ) - by Memory Lane Studios
 Martha Stewart - PATP, Snowflake - Sizzix die,
Glitter - Hunkydory, Brads - Joy Crafts,
Promarker - for changing colour of gemstones,brads and pearls 
Beads, gemstones, pearl string and other elements from my stash.










Thank you very much for visiting and all your lovely comments
