Last Minute Halloween Projects Part 2

Hey Paper Pals!!

Here is part 2 of the post for today.  I had to make some goodie bags for my nieces and nephews.  I get a litle carried away when I'm in my craft room, if you couldn't tell. Hee hee.

I made some regular bags from the Plantin Schoolbook cart, and just cut them out of Halloween Paper (DCWV The Midnight Spell, and some from the Cloud 9 Fall Stack) and put some ribbon on them. (After the photos were taken, I also put emellishments on them.  I don't know why I didn't take pics of them then???!
Here are three of the bags:










And now for my most proud project of the week.  Candy Corn Boxes!!!  There were made entirely by hand, no cricut.  I had so much fun making these!!! 

 

I started with a 4x10" piece of cardstock.  I added a stirp of yellow, orange, and white to make the layers of the candy corn.  I then used a craft knife and cut out the triangle window, and placed acetate to cover it.  Then I filled with candy corn (what else?!) and tied them closed with ribbon!  They are so much fun!  It's times like these I wish I had kids to make stuff like this for their classrooms!  Haha.
















Thanks for stopping by!  Let me know what you think!!
