Halloween Treat Boxes

I had great fun playing with the Creative Charms Deal of the Month this weekend. I made these treat boxes for my boys’ teachers. They were so easy to make I may create these for all the kids in the class. I sure have plenty of Creative Charms elements left over from my Deal of the Month to create a bunch.

These boxes are a perfect size ~
4.75" wide x 1.75" deep x 4.25" high

Here is my Trick or Treat Box:

The Boo Box:

And the Fright Night Box:

Here are the details:

Box is from SVG Cuts ~ Lunch With Mom SVG Kit ~ Small Gable Box
Stamps from Punkin’ Patch Stamps - Trick or Treat Stamps
Papers from DCWV ~ Midnight Spell

Embellishments from Creative Charms ~ October Deal of the Month

It’s All About the Family

We recently got together for our Family Reunion. I created this layout to capture the fun of the day. Also featured the oldest and youngest members of the family on my layout.

I went Cricut-less for this project (I know not like me!) I used lots of stitching and the Creative Charms Deal of Month from May (Sparkling Garden of Delight) for this layout. All the Kits & Deals of the Month are 10% Off.


I used papers from DCWV Green Stack for this layout. I cut the flower from patterned paper to add as an accent. Here are a few closeups:


Isn't the little owl cute? And love how the Creative Charms are the perfect accent.

DCWV is having a sketch challenge over on their blog and I'm going to play along. Sketch is from Susan at Sketch Savvy.

Thanks for stopping by today and don't forget to enter my contest before the end of today. Winner will be announced Thursday. See my prior post for the details.

June Deal of the Month Projects

Here are a few pages I did using Creative Charms products from the June Deal of the Month. Stop on by the Creative Charms site to take advantage of this Deal. The selection is perfect for scrapping your spring & summer photos!

This first one is a sketch challenge on the SVG Cuts site. The challenge is to do a page about yourself.



A few closeups...


This second page features a photo of my son and my great niece. Title is “Fav Cuz?” Even though they look like they are best buddies my little guy takes a beating from his younger cousin but still loves her. Love the felt butterfly and flowers from the June Deal of the Month. I added some hand stitching to the layout.


A few close up looks...

Enjoy your first Day of Summer!
