Fun Little Treats

Not fancy schmancy, just a quick little gift idea (for any occasion really - just change up the filling and decor - check out my other sample below)... I took this cute little jar, filled with some candy corn, added some gorgeous SU 1-1/4" Striped Ribbon around the cap and embellished the cap front. Viola, instant cute little gift, right? By the way, Crushed Curry and Pumpkin Pie are a perfect color match for candy corn :)
* My Circle Scissor Plus came in extremely handy to make just the perfect Crushed Curry circle to 'hide' my cap. This is a must have tool if you want easy, quick perfect circles
* Using my Scallop Circle Punch, I popped out a Pumpkin Pie Scallop Circle and with a dauber, sponged the edges in Pumpkin Pie. I'm never without my daubers - a little distressing of edges adds a lot of depth
* With the Batty for You set, I inked up my pumpkin image with my SU Markers. I love using my markers to isolate colors on my images. Basic Black makes the cute sentiment stand out around my Pumpkin Pie and Old Olive pumpkin.
* A few small google eyes adhered with Crystal Effects makes it a bit whimsical.

A simple gift idea, under 10 minutes to kreate. Recycle some of your jars and have fun making a cute little treat :) Hope this gives you some inspiration for any last minute Halloween goodies.

Sour Cream Containers

This is the final project from my Sweet Treats class. I had kreated these Sour Cream Containers before, you can see them here, but for my class we used Ghostly Greetings DSP (some of the ladies who are class moms are using these for the Halloween party in their child's class - fun, fun, fun!!) The one in the middle was my sample using the retired Jersey shore paper. You can follow this tutorial, change the DSP and make a favor for any occasion . All I added to my containers, beside the yummy M&M's inside (seems appropriate for the paper we used, don't ya think? - you can click on the picture to enlarge and you may be able to see along the grayish line the words YUM YUM YUM...) my little gogglie eyed Halloween friends from the Batty for You set - punched out with 1-1/4" circle punch and then mounted on a 1-3/8" circle. Have fun with these, they are so simple to make and oh so cute!!

For now, go kreate
