pebbles basics blog hop...

Good morning!  Welcome to my blog - I'm excited to be a part of today's blog hop for Pebbles!  For this blog hop, the Pebbles team was challenged to create a project of their choice using the Pebbles Basics collection. We really wanted to show you just how versatile this line is. 

Here's how today's blog hop is going to work...Visit each blog, leave a sweet note and in some cases enter to win a Pebbles mini giveaway. Once you've stopped by each site, head back over to the Pebbles blog and enter to win a collection of Pebbles Basics products worth $200 (that's a lot of product folks!).

I used the Basics Collection to make some sweet little Halloweeen Treat bags.

Who says you need a "themed" collection to make something fun for a holiday? It's just not true!

With the fun purple, orange, black, and gray pieces from the Basics collection

I made these little Halloween goodie bags – and not a pumpkin, ghost, witch, or spider in sight!

I filled them up with yummy sweet treats:

Now I just need to tuck these away for a while so I am not tempted to eat the treats…but I suppose if I do happen to eat one or two, I can always buy more to replace them! ;)
