Halloween Blog Hop ~ Day 1

Welcome to three days of exciting Halloween projects during this spooktacular weekend hop. Some are fun and others may be spooky. We hope you enjoy every crafter's site and find a project that you may be able to use this season.

You should have arrived by Jen at The  Purple Scrapbooker. If not I am glad you are here, but be sure to visit her too. We do not want you to miss any cards, projects, or layouts.


Here is the complete blog hop line up so you won't get lost: 


My first project is...
Trick Or Treat Goodie Bags
I cut out 17 bags at 5 1/2" from Plantin Schoolbook (page 80). I used various Halloween colors.
This is what the bag looks like once it is assembled.
Then I cut out various shapes from Mini Monsters, October 31st, Doodlecharms, and Potpourri Basket at 2 1/2" using all the scrap pieces from the 12 X 12 sheets I used to make the treat bags. The colors all coordinated and now I have no waste.

These are the tags I made for each treat bag. I used 2 different stamps and 4 different ink colors. I used left over pieces of Halloween scraps from previous cards I have made to border the cardstock. I attached each tag with black and orange ribbon.

These are goodies that I picked up last year after Halloween for 75% off.  I am going to add some yummy individually wrapped candy once it gets closer to October 31st.  I think the students will love them!
Be sure to leave a comment each day for a chance to win a Halloween treat (unless you would rather a trick). Here are just a few of the treats. Tomorrow I will add a couple more sweets. And on Sunday, I will add the last ones.
I hope you have enjoyed yourself and be sure to head over to Dorcas at 4 Crafty Angels now for some more spooktacular Halloween treats.

Stay Creative,
Georgiana : )

  58. cute bags... definitly something easy to duplicate for all of the special neighbor kids for trick or treat time! I like that it won't be too hard with cricut and it really won't be that expensive. I have bags/tags cartridge. I might even use up some old spider stickers! You inspired my brain to get moving!
