3D/Big Shot Club - October 26, 2011

Here are the projects we made at the 3D/Big Shot Club in October.  They were such fun to put together and really got us in the mood for Halloween! 

This first project is a candy corn (one of my favorite halloween candies!) treat holder.  It is so simple - I think it's called a sour cream container??  Anyway, you basically take a 6x6 sheet of DSP (I used the Frightful Sight DSP), roll it together and then adhere it well with sticky strip.  Take one end and adhere that together with sticky strip, fill with your favorite candy, and then take the opposite ends (to give it that twisted look) and adhere those together.  The crimper gives it that finished/professional look!  I thought it was fun to put a little hint of what was inside with the 1 1/4" circle punch and a window sheet.  We then added the BOOOOO sentiment from the Scaredy Cat stamp set. What fun! 

This next idea came from Robin Spinner at robinlea.blogspot.com.  I was very excited to see that she is blogging again - I love all of her projects and wish she was still here in Michigan!  This is a fun pin that you can put on your shirt, your purse, in your hair - there are so many great possibilities!  I smiled every time I wore it!  We embossed (with black embossing powder - how cool!) the Scaredy Cat stamp, bejeweled it a bit with Basic Rhinestones and then finished it off with the 1 1/4" black striped grograin ribbon - isn't it a fantastic idea??  Thank you, Robin!

As always, I hope you enjoyed these projects as much as I did!  Join us anytime at the 3D/Big Shot Class the last Wednesday of every month at 7pm - next class is on November 30th!  Email me at amy.frillici@yahoo.com if you'd like to join us!

Cute Halloween Treat Ideas!

We made these cute Halloween Treat favors at a party I did last month.  I had a few left over and decided to make them for my club members this month!  I will always love the images in this set, Batty for You.  They are just too cute and beg to be put on a scallop circle with a few coordinating circle punches.  They are too fun to work with :).  And the M&Ms fit perfectly in the new 1" cello bags from the Holiday Mini - you get 50 of them for only $2.50!!  Email me today at amy.frillici@yahoo.com if you'd like to purchase some for yourself!
