Pop Up Treat Box

One of the challenges this weekend at the My Scraps and More Wonder"FALL" crop was to create a treat container. Many months before I had seen a pop up treat box/bag on YouTube. I wasn't able to find the video again (I didn't look very hard either) so I just decided to go off of what I remembered.

When you open the flap a small treat is lifted up out of the box.

Nature Walk Layout

I used Creative Scrappers sketch #172 for this layout. I also used a recipe challenge from My Scraps and More. My recipe included journal strips, brads, black and white photo, 2 patterned papers and sewing.

Owl Birthday Card

I used my new favorite cartridge, Create A Critter, and scraps for all of the cuts on this card. To make the branch I took grosgrain ribbon, rolled it into a circle and glued it to the paper. I didn't have any tacky glue or anything like that so I used Mighty Mend-It (yup the infomercial stuff) that my husband's grandmother gave to us years ago.

Celebrate the Occasion - Challenge #32

Doodlebug Birthday Card

Just a quick post today. I need to beat a deadline all while participating in an online crop over at the forums of My Scraps and More. It's been a lot of fun and there are a lot of great prizes to be won!

I used Doodlebug for everything but the balloon. I cut the balloon from Elmo's Party and used We R Memory Keepers candy stripe twine for the string.

Challenges:
Celebrate the Occasion - Challenge #31

Pirate Monster Card

What little monster wouldn't want to be a pirate for Halloween? This little guy sure does. He was supposed to be a bag but I didn't realize I had the card button pressed (oops!).

I used Mini Monsters to cut my card at 11" (fit to page). His pirate hat is cut from Pooh and Friends at 5" and outlined in black glitter glue.
