Prettie Treats Wednesday (PWC74)
It's Prettie Wednesday! Time for another Challenge and a chance for you to WIN a $15 coupon to the Paper Pretties Boutique. Today's challenge is from Frances and it's to create something for a Halloween Treat - a box, bag, lollipop holder . . . whatever! Did you start today's hop on Christie's blog? Go there now if not, I'll wait! :)
I wanted to find something a bit different but something quick. As I was flipping through the October 2009 issue of Cards magazine I came to an adorable treat holder made by Lea Lawson - it's pure genius!! (see Lea's version here). So I did what we all must do when we find something amazing - I case'd it!! :)
For my version of the treat holder I used a box that some fun Doodlebug buttons came in (looks like the same one that Lea used even!). The stamps I used were Pick of the Patch from Paper Pretties. I simply cut down a piece of patterned paper to the size of the package and added a band around the top with a cute little hang tag. I stamped the sentiment on the outslide of the package using Stazon and filled it with Skittles - done!
So now it's your turn, let's see what treat containers you have up your sleeves! Remember to upload them to the Weekly Challenge Gallery at Paper Pretties by next Tuesday night for your chance to win! Have fun!! Ok, next up on your hop - Danielle!! Have a great day!
Cardstock: Orange Zest, White (Papertrey Ink), Patterned Paper: I forget . . Stamps: Pick of the Patch (Paper Pretties), Ink: Memento, Stazon, Accessories: product packaging, ribbon, Nestabilities, Copics, Twine (Papertrey Ink), Black Glaze pen
