I had the Real Red Goodie Gear Kit but wanted to turn some of it into Halloween treats. I used a greeting from Delightful Dozen and Witches’ Brew Washi Tape. You could do the same thing with cellophane bags, tags with Chalk Talk and Bitty Banners Framelits, and Baker’s Twine. Kits make it easy, It’s all coordinated and ready for your greeting. Done!

The Flip Flop card could not be easier than with the Label Card Thinlit. Pop less than a half sheet of card stock in the Big Shot with the die and you’re practically done! But we didn’t just leave it there. We added some layers, ribbon, and an In-Color Boutique Detail. We cut “Hi” with one of the extra pieces from the Thinlit set. A tip: Use some wax paper between the die and your card stock to help release the paper after cutting. We stamped with The Best of Flowers set. Lovely!

These little mini milk cartons hold sweet pea seeds. I thought that would be a nice way to bring in the gardening theme. We used the gingham wheel on top of the box. It feels good to help the Ronald McDonald Charities too!

One big stamp for the background, a greeting, and some a little extra bit of stamping for grunge. We used the Decorative Label Punch to get the top edge of the banner. Add a bit of Chevron ribbon. Designer Series Paper peeks through the Chevron Punches. Then we lined up the punched pieces to decorate the inside.

I love the embossed card stock with ink brayered over the raised portions. I stamped the Simply Pressed Clay and then punched it out. I think it all blends into a lovely collage. The Finishing Touches Edgelit really does put the finishing touches!

I’m not sure the White Washing technique shows up in this photo, but it helps to bring out the poppies in real life. I have been trying various ways to use every bit of paper and this was one of those. I cut out both the Daffodil Delight and Baked Brown Sugar layers at the same time. Punch the Oval for the greeting from the center of the Daffodil Delight layer, then divide the rest in fourths to spread out for the border. Add a tiny bit of ribbon. The background is embossed like a watermark. The focal layer is embossed with White Embossing Powder, painted with White Craft ink, then when dry, painted again with the colored ink.
