I took a quick peek at the Mojo Monday sketch today...and it was sooooo calling to me...
and I'd had the Stampin' Celebration! October challenge bookmarked since Friday...
I just LoVeD the colors on this!
The orange, aqua, and that black and white ribbon on the top of the wreath?!?! AwEsOMe!!
so...I made this....
I used the colors and the layout...except instead of putting it on a card....
I put it on a plastic card box and added a ribbon handle.
It will be soooooo cute when it's full of candy corn!
I could have shown you now, except that someone....who shall remain nameless but is 11, lives in my house, and who's name rhymes with Donnor....ate it all ;)
Here's a closer view of my pumpkin...it's just embossed oval punches layered together....I love how the PTI sentiment pops embossed in white on that black paper.
Here's a close up of the ribbon handle/button detail.
I just cheated and glued it on...hopefully, the recipient won't get too aggressive swinging it around or they may send their candy corn flying...I personally wouldn't consider that a big loss (candy corn is some NASTY stuff!) but I know it would bring tears to the eyes of some people...again...with names that rhyme with Donnor....
I'm linking this up at Mojo Monday and Stampin' Celebration.
Thanks for looking!
