Happy Mickey Halloween Box

BOO!! It's Halloween again and I could not pass up this opportunity to share with you a Halloween creation this year. With a box pattern I featured recently, I made Mickey's version of a pirate for Halloween. It came out really cute!!! hehe. All I had to do was just punched out a 1" circle of Basic Black and cut it in half to use as an eye patch to Mickey. Then cut approximately 2-1/2" to 2-3/4" strip to make the strap of the eye patch and adhere on top as illustrated (just trim excess piece).

The colors of Halloween was not too hard to decide on. You may play around with the shades of Orange, Green, Purple with Black. Then you got your traditional Halloween colors!

These boxes can be used as treat boxes for any occasion! To make a Mickey Box, click HERE.

Halloween Bitty Box

I just got my NEW Simply Scored Scoring Tool! It's just amazing and so easy to use! I don't have to worry about scoring my paper with the wrong measurements anymore.
I immediately made these Halloween boxes. The LOLLIPOP embellishments were made with the Simply Scored Scoring Tool #122334. To put an extra pizzaz on these lollipops, I glued silver glass glitter #120995 at the edges.

I also used my favorite Halloween Stamp set "Batty for You" #116576 and heat embossed the images to Whisper White Cardstock. I used a 1" circle punch to punch out the images without their captions so I can give an extra layer of cardstock measuring 1-1/4".

If you really want to learn how to make these embellishments, come try it out for size in my classes. Just email to book your class with me :) Not only will you make these boxes, you'll get to make Halloween Cards and other Halloween Favors.

Here are other designs and colors. So much fun to play with.

Halloween Invitation

At work, we have this big Halloween Decor in front and it leaves a bold impression that Halloween is here! Can anyone guess what it is? Anyway, my project today will show you. Yes, it's a creepy window...lol. I just couldn't resist making a card out of it. I hope you like it :)

Below is an earlier stage of my card... didn't quite know how to complete it yet. But of course, the undying owl punch always is the winner. This time I used my Mummy Owl. Cute one ey..



I was looking for a stamp for Invites but I guess it's an oldie retired set.

Introducing, my Monster Mash collection! You know that song A Monster Mash? That song inspired me to put together this group of Halloween cuties. I've got my Witch, Mummy, Vampire, Gizmo Gremlin and Franky. What best is there than using your Owl Punch (#118074) once again!

Halloween Coffin Treat Boxes

Boo!! I think I got crazy this week. I went crazy creating these cute coffin treat boxes. I thought it would come out creepy to make them but they came out to be quite entertaining.

Halloween Favor Box- Masquerade

Hello, there! It's October and you know what that means! Another Halloween project for you. Halloween is about masquerading, so many costumes and so many mask. I just decided to mask my punch arts. Let me show you. Here's little black kitty with his cute glittery mask.

HOW TO MAKE THE MASK:
You will need 3 punchers:
- Large Oval Punch
- Curly Label Punch
- Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack (the round one)
At a straight edge of a cardstock, punch out a small piece of with your oval punch. Then punch half of the curly label punch as illustrated. Lastly, using the Itty Bitty Shapes punch, punch 2 circles. (Not to close to each other, I would mark the mask with 2 dots first before I punch the circles)





HOW I MADE THE CAT:
Punch Used:
- 5 petal flower punch (for the ears and the legs)
- Full Heart Punch (half piece for the tail)
- Large Oval Punch (for the head)
- Word Window Punch (for the neck)
- 1/2" circle punch (for the eyes)
- 2 Step Owl Punch (for the iris)
- Slot punch (for the neck leash), I think it's no longer available for sale but you can always improvise by cutting a small rectangle piece.
Now you're ready to follow the illustrations below! Have fun!!!

TAADAAAHHHHHH !!!! You have your cat! Position the mask slightly below right of the cat's eyes. It would give the cat a cute shy expression. Remember to draw your whiskers and eye highlights with white gel pen. Then GLITTER!!! This will give the full dramatic effect of your Masquerade. (Use "Fine Super Nova" glitter set - orange #114287)


I hope you had fun making my Masquerade Cat. See you again!

Wizard of OWLZ - The Lion

Courage to do the things that inspire you to inspire others!!! That's what it takes to be with Stampin' Up! The Lion needs his courage, too, in some other way :) Anyway, here's how I made him:
- 2 Step Owl Punch (use So Saffron CS)
- Scallop Circle Punch ( Chocolate Chip Brown for his mame)
- 2 Step Bird Punch (use the leaf part of the punch for his tail and snip off the other leaves) I used one brown leaf for the tip.
- 1/2" circle punch (for eyes and eyelids - Summer Sun)
- 2 Step Owl Punch (use the same circle on his iris and his nose).
- Use Daffodil Delight CS for his vest
- Use Black fine pen to draw his whiskers

I hear some of you love the Wizard of OZ and some of you loves the lion. I hope I did justice to a lion owl...hihi. Enjoy making him.

BTW, just a question, who needed the heart and who needed the brain? I always get mixed up on those.
