Welcome to another Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop!  This week our theme is TRICK OR TREAT SMELL MY FEET so we have lots of ideas for Halloween treat giving. I went with the CURVY KEEPSAKE BOX THINLIT paired with HALLOWEEN NIGHTS SPECIALTY DSP and SPOOKY FUN . To create the treat, you only need to die cut part of the CURVY KEEPSAKE THINLIT .  I did a diagram to show you where I placed my paper. After you cut the two pieces, simply add fast fuse to the small bottom flap and adhere together. I kept the stamping simple so this could be easily duplicated for a party favor and trick or treating.  The sentiment was stamped on a die cut from the MINI TREAT BAG THINLIT and a couple of ghosts were added as well as a spider and his web. A peppermint patty fits nicely inside, I added a little SNAIL to hold it in then tied the top shut with HALLOWEEN NIGHT BAKER'S TWINE. I have a full list of supplies below so you can give this a try and make your own SPOOKY FUN CURVY KEEPSA...

I've compiled a bunch of great ideas for Halloween treats so you can prep for upcoming parties.  You can never start too soon! This first one is a card and treat together.  I used the BAKER'S BOX and HALLOWEEN NIGHTS DSP to create a fun BOX to put treats in.  This comes together so quickly since the DSP does a lot of the work for you! For this treat, create a MINI TREAT BAG with DSP and stuff it with goodies.  In this type of bag I like to put a little pad of paper along with pencils and stickers for kids to have something other than candy.  So many options with the awesome HALLOWEEN NIGHTS DSP. The MINI TREAT BAG thinlit can also be used to make half sized treat bags .  These are perfect for pixie stix, pencil or Twizler.  I decorated this set with COOKIE CUTTER HALLOWEEN and it came together so quickly!  Again, the DSP does a lot of the design work for you. If you don't have die cuts to make the previous treats, why not make something simple and do a matchbox style tr...

One of the things I love about Halloween is making lots of fun treats to give away.  Today's idea is matchbox style treat featuring JAR OF HAUNTS . These little treats are not only cute, but easy to make.  The Basic Black card stock measured 7 1/4" x 3" and was scored at 2 3/4" and 5 3/4".  For embellishment, I used the Jack-o-Lantern from JAR OF HAUNTS and HALLOWEEN NIGHT SPECIALTY DSP . Inside is a candy with a fun sentiment.  A great way to give a little treat or to even advertise your business.  Slip a business card in with the treat and hand these out everywhere you go! When I get a little time this week I think I'll expand on this idea and do a bunch for everyone at work.  Cookie Cutter Halloween and Spooky Fun would be a couple of other great stamps to use with this idea. Don't forget about more great ideas that will be going live Tuesday is the OCTOBER MINI SESSION from Create with Connie and Mary.  We have FULL tutorials for you, all the wor...

I have a fun little treat to share today that was super easy to make!  I am a subscriber to My Paper Pumpkin and the September kit was just incredible!  I am just now getting a chance to dig into the kit and it was so much fun that I had to share! Total cuteness, right??  This kit had 16 test tubes for treats!!!!  YES...16!!  It makes doing gifts or party favors easy as pie!  There is a great stamp set to use for lots of other projects as well.

Welcome to the Creation Station Blog Hop for October!  This month we are sharing Halloween projects and cards.  We have tons of ideas to share, so be sure to hop all the way around to see what everyone has created! I combined several products for my half size Mini Treat Bags, love how everything works together so well! Half size mini treat bags are super fun to make and prefect party favors!  I kept my designs fairly simple so you could use these ideas and make them in multiples for your parties this year. Using COOKIE CUTTER HALLOWEEN and the coordinating COOKIE CUTTER BUILDER PUNCH make this something that would be simple to crank out a bunch of in a short amount of time.  I kept the stamping simple by choosing the characters that only needed black ink.  Just stamp and punch! Make your treats quickly by doing all of your steps assembly line style.  If you want to make several of one design, cut all your paper and assemble the mini treat bags then doing all your stamping to complete t...
