Halloween Candy Tote Box

Happy Thursday...how was your day? Mine, was quiet...tonight I'd like to share a project that I
 made to use, but it ended up not working for me. So I decided to make it into a Halloween candy tote instead...or maybe use it to house some of my go to acrylic paints...the photos are a bit busy...sorry about that...but you get the idea..use something different instead of the normal halloween candy box...

I used SVG files from Simply Crafty...hop over and check out what she has in her store....and I understand she's getting ready to release something new for Halloween...Enjoy!!!!

Well that's all I have for tonight....Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful evening...hugs from Charm City....

Good Saturday morning to you...I hope I find you all in great spirits even with what is going on...the world is in a very unhappy place right now...so today I'd like to try and give you a little bit of happiness with this new birthday set I made...the card is one I had made sometime ago but don't believe I ever shared it...and the cupcake box is new and is from Simply Crafty Svg ....take a gander over to the store and see what fabulous designs has been coming out...they are pretty cool...the cupcake box has 2 different design lids to it....it's like a 2fer...love those....

I did use some modeling paste and stencil to add texture to the background...then sprayed with some misting spray...used a paint brush also to flick some of the spray...I used an acrylic frame to frame in Tilda....Cupcake box was made using the sprays and some layered flowers...simple...but I love simple, sometimes...haha....Enjoy!!!!

Santa Xpress

Good afternoon...Today I wanted to share a project that I've been working on for some time now. I really love how this has turned out....if you watch the video, you'll see all of the svg's that I used from Dreaming Tree...this is my first project using their files, and I was quite pleased at how easy these were to put together..and to take apart...lol....but if you know me, you know I simply love gift boxes...it's an addiction that I have...I cut everything out onto white or black cardstock and hand painted with acrylic paint....I also added cardboard to give it different textures and look..hand painted the glitter using a paint brush....so here is a set of 3 that can be filled with goodies and given as a gift to someone.....Enjoy!!!!

 

 

these are the bump outs on the sides of the Gingerbread House...just glued together...

The Haunted BBQ Shack

Happy National card making day...today I'm not sharing a card, but a candy box that I just made...I was going to pack my halloween tub away after I made Mr. Frankenstein, but decided to make one more candy box....you all know how I love love to make gift boxes...well here's one that has 3 different compartments....

I used files from Simply Crafty (crazy coffin box--bbq shack and the large tumbler explosion box)to make the box...and the rest of it is from my stash....most things were either colored and cut out, stamped or already cut on the machine...I only had to stamp a couple things...mostly all of those pumpkins....those peski little pumpkins...lol....I also used some glow in the dark embossing powder for a few things....and it really looks so cool in the dark....sorry I didn't get a photo of them glowing....Enjoy!!!!!

 I do double up on all cut pieces...for the structures I do one piece with the cut marks and then one piece that doesn't have them...the one that has them, I use as the bottom...this way you won't see them on top...did that make sense?

 

 I used chipboard as a stencil as I couldn't find my regular stencil...I like how thick it turned out....

 to paint, I painted everything black, inside and out....then dry brushed white, then dry brushed a light blue....I really love how it turned out...

Well thanks for stopping by today...I hope you were able to play some....hugs from a chilly Charm City....
