Pumpkin Treat Box

August 26, 2013 by Rebecca Wagner Leave a Comment

From the September/October 2012 issue of CuttingEdge Magazine.

Since I was part of CuttingEdge Magazine for so long, I have quite a few projects and tutorials I would like to share with you. Now that I finally have my craft room in working order and my son seems to be healing from his broken wrist, I can start posting new projects I have been working on. There will be some shots of my new room with the magazine stuff mixed in. My room is nothing out of Better Homes and Garden, but I love it. It’s my hideaway. Candi, you might want to skip those posts as I have an accent wall. I just couldn’t commit. ;P I also will spare you my nails. Ha!

I know the magazine pictures are not that great, but bare with me as most of the CEM projects were almost a year ago and we were keeping it simple. We grew and evolved, so we started using more color in the backgrounds as time went on. I can definitely tell I have come a little ways in my crafting (thank goodness). That is what is great about blogs. We can share to show how far we have come and encourage each other to continue on the crafty path towards even bigger and better things.

I want to thank my regular readers for sticking with me through the good and not-so-good side of my crafting adventures. I heart you all!

Supplies:

Paper: Midnight Magic by Recollections, solid cardstock by Recollections; Cut Files: Pinch Box by Lettering Delights, My Thoughts Exactly Fright Night Friends SVG – candy corn, My Thoughts Exactly Jack-O-Lantern SVG, Oval Scallop frame; Halloween Subway Art stamps by My Thoughts Exactly; Orange Licorice by Trendy Twine; Adhesive: Scotch ATG, 3D Zots; Ink: Memento in Tuxedo Black; Spectrum Noir markers; Tools: circle hole punch, Silhouette Cameo, Make the Cut software.
