Well, hello friends! Just popping in today to share a fun little project tutorial I created for the Doodlebug Design blog featuring their super cute October 31st collection.
I wanted to make a little Halloween treat basket to keep on my desk at work - because all of my co-workers appreciate a little chocolate pick-me-up during a long work day (and I feel much less guilty about eating chocolate if I'm sharing with my friends!). I started with this little wooden crate, which originally held a fun little holiday cheese sampler - last Christmas! See, you've gotta hang on to these things because you just never know when you're going to be able to re-purpose them. Anyway, here's how it started:
The "trick or treat" washi tape was perfect to wrap around the wooden slats and Mr. and Mrs. Ghostie look awfully cute, holding hands in the back of the crate. They are part of the die-cut set.
And I thought they looked like they wanted to say something, so I added these cute speech bubble stickers. Next, I covered the front of the crate with another fun patterned paper.
I thought this label sticker would be the perfect addition to the front of the crate. I rubbed baby powder on the back to remove the stickiness and placed two mini clothespins to on the top.See how nicely it sits right on the front of the crate? Oh, I added a strip of the spiderweb paper to the front also, because I felt like the label kind of got lost in the business of the other paper alone.
And fill it up with something yummy...To share with your ghoul-friends!
