A Paper Pumpkin Thing: Spooky Treats

October 7, 2022 4 Comments

I’m still suffering with a bad cold and it’s definitely slowing me down. Thankfully I’ve improved enough to be able to take part in this month’s A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop. Today it’s all about the September 2022 Kit called Spooky Treats. While I’m not a huge fan of Halloween I know a lot of you are, so my first project is a larger box for even more Halloween treats. Then my second project is an easy Christmas idea with a simple trick to disguise those bright box colours. NOT SO SPOOKY ... VIEW POST

Playful Alphabet Lives Up To Its Name

October 14, 2021 Leave a Comment

When it comes to Halloween I'm a bit of a let-down. In the UK Halloween is building in popularity but was never a thing when I was growing up. Now I live in Canada I can appreciate the decorated yards and have things for the trick or treaters, but that's about as far as it goes. For this reason I don't tend to get specific Halloween-themed stamp sets, but aren't unhappy if there's the odd image included in a set. Today though, I have a fun Halloween idea using the Playful Alphabet Dies and a ... VIEW POST

Halloween Packaging

October 26, 2020 Leave a Comment

It's been one of those frustrating mornings when I had things to do but technology dictated the timeline. I filmed a short video showing how to make a simple Halloween "sour cream" treat package. It might have been short but the edited video took forever to upload to YouTube. Halloween isn't the only scary thing around here, our internet often gives me nightmares too. So in an effort to speed things up I switched everything else off to maximise my rural bandwidth. It's only now, about 4 ... VIEW POST

Spider Season Is Almost Here

August 29, 2020 Leave a Comment

While I love autumn for it's glorious colours, I'm not so keen on some of the other things it brings. It always seems like there's more spiders around as the weather starts to turn cooler. So although I'm not really scared of them, if I do see a spider I will give it a wide berth. That said, I don't mind adding a cute spider to a Halloween project. Today's treat package is a case in point. STONE WALL BACKDROP When I was thinking about making a Halloween treat package my options were ... VIEW POST

A Paper Pumpkin Thing – Bone Appetit

September 26, 2019 2 Comments

It's the last Thursday in the month and that means it's time for another A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop. This month we're back to bare bones with 13 members and the the Bone Appetit kit. As I'm originally from the UK I'm not hugely into Halloween, but that didn't stop me having fun with this kit. A HANDBAG? In the UK gentlemen keep their money in a wallet. Ladies keep their money in a purse, and carry their purse in a handbag (or shoulder bag). So when I saw the skeleton hands in ... VIEW POST
