Dirty Challenge Spook or Treat ~


Today's post is for the SCS DD/DDA Monthly Challenge. This month the challenge was issued by Emily "Water Pixie" and the perimeters were:

Theme: Halloween
Required element: Googlie Eyes
Restrictions: No Pumpkins of any sort

I barely had time this week to even think about this challenge, and then I got the reminder pm. :) Saturday evening I created this Halloween gift bag from 2 sheets of Making Memories patterned paper and filled it with a dozen simply stamped cellos of candy corn to take as my appreciation gifts for the class I taught at my fav LSS (Paper Tales) on Sunday. The gift tag is an altered shipping tag, very simply gussied up with the same papers, googlie eyes (wish I had smaller ones, but it was late and I didn't want to go out), mini brads, hemp, and ribbon. The gals taking the Cupcake Box Class (a couple of posts down) appreciated the cellos of candy corn, but all wanted to take the bag instead. Another class has been added to the Paper Tales class list. *smile*

Perimeter checklist:

Halloween themed - check
Googlie eyes - check
No pumpkins - check

Okay, I think I followed all the rules this time! You can view the other Dirty Challenge projects at SCS, keyword DCST1008
