My friends Halloween card!

A few weeks back I copied down a phrase from an adorable Halloween card that I wanted to create for my friend, Gunnar.  So thats what I did.  Here are the lyrics...

Here is the front!

This is the inside.

I wanted to show off the envelope.

I haven't heard if Gunnar has received his card yet.  But I have a feeling he will love it.  Have a great upcoming week my friends.  Bright Blessings, Jana

Halloween Treat Box

I am writing this Friday night.  We have strong winds and sideways rain for the valley tomorrow.  Might lose power, better safe than sorry.  Even the national news gave a quick blurb about the 2 tornadoes we had on the Oregon Coast this morning.  Saturday is forecasted to be even a worse storm.  Batten down the hatches!

I have to give a big shoutout to my friend Debs Smith.  She saved my bacon with a pattern for a popcorn box.  Debs saves the day.  Now on to the lyrics...

~Popcorn Box pattern sent by Debs Smith
~The Frankensteins 2015 (a vault file)
~Steampunk Spells by Graphic 45
~Red double sided tape
~Sure Cuts A Lot Software
~My Silver Bullet 24" Professional cutter
~Tonic Micropoint scissors
~Liquid Pearls (Lavender Lace)
~Micron #1 black pen
~Pebbles classic Chalk
~Spectrum Noir Colored Pencils

This was put together as a treat box for our family physician.  I made snickerdoodle cookies and filled the popcorn box.  Here is the finished box.

As you can see I used a lot of G45 paper.

Here she is, Mrs. Frankenstein.

And Mr. Frankenstein!

I made a pocket and a sort of gift tag with it.

This is how I wrapped the cookies.
The office staff and our doctor were thrilled to get this.  They all needed a pick me up for a Thursday afternoon.

That's it for this week.  I have 2 more popcorn boxes to make and a girly girl birthday card.  So for now, Bright blessings for the coming week!!!
