My Paper Crafting Challenge 120--Hearts To You

Hi everyone! It's hump day once again and it's time for a new Crafting with Cutters challenge at My Paper Crafting!

This week's challenge is:

Create a project with a heart or a heart shape. 

Here is what I created.

I made this cute lil' mailbox from the Valentine's 3D Mailboxes cartridge and I cut it at 5" and then pieced it together. Once I pieced it together, I added this fun vintage-y Valentine paper on top of the red mailbox and then added the "Valentine's" cut on top of the paper. 

You could definitely make this bigger for an actual mailbox for letters but I kept it at it's minimum cut. I filled this mailbox with some tissue paper and then Valentine candy on top of that. 

I signed up for a Secret Valentine at the school I'm teaching at and I think one of the 4 days we are secretly leaving treats/goodies for the person we got, this will be one of my gifts to that person. :D

Thanks for taking a look and make sure to go to My Paper Crafting to check out the other DT member's creations and to see all the rules to play along.

Have a great Hump Day!

Cut It Up Challenge #4--Trick or Treat, Smell My Feet Treat Cones

Hi again,

Happy Friday everyone!! It's time for another Cut It Up Challenge! Challenge #4 is to create a Halloween/spooky themed project. Make sure you include a die-cut!!

So since this is a Halloween challenge, I just had to make some treat holders. I found this Cricut Craft Room Exclusive Cones digital cartridge and knew I had to make these! I used the cone that has a lid on it In the photos, the lids are already tucked down and closed over the treats. I embellished them with images from Trick or Treat cartridge and the spider webs are from Happy Hauntings. 

 Close-ups:

I just love them!! Hope these inspire you to make your own treat holders for Halloween!! Happy Hauntings, friends and thanks for taking a peek!! Join us over at Cut It Up and don't forget to include a die-cut!!

Open if You Dare Coffin Treat Box

Here's another little "treat" for you on this lovely Sunday!

I made this cute little coffin treat box for My Craft Spot's challenge #72--A Treat for You challenge. This 3D box is from the Happy Hauntings cartridge and is cut at 6". I cut it in gray and then also cut some layers for the top of the coffin and the inside lining of the cartridge with this purple patterned paper from DCWV's Fall & Halloween stack. I then stamped the purple patterned paper with a spider web and spider.

 I filled my box with candy corn flavored m&m's and different flavored candy corns...

 ...and then tied my box shut with this black and orange twine from Trendy Twine and added the sentiment "Open if you dare!" from My Craft Spot's Happy Haunting stamp set. I think it's so cute and very simple to put together and will be so fun to throw into a trick or treater's candy pail! 

There you have it! Have a fantastic Sunday and thanks so much for taking a peek!
