October Planner Pages by Tangii

Hey yall, Tangii here.  For today's post I did some playing with some Halloween stickers and Planner stamps (all items used are listed at the bottom of my post).   You could use this format for any month.  Just change up the stickers that you use.  This is my Daughter's planner and is actually a 1/2 sheet size, so 5 1/2" x 8".  I also used the Coloring Book Watercolor Pencils (12 pack).

My daughter struggles when Monday strolls around, and being the coffee lover that she is, I used the Coffee Plans, Clear Planner set on Mondays.  I also had some fun with the 31st, she still LOVES dressing up for Halloween, lol. 

I used Everyday Plans, Clear Planner set for Pay Day's & Date Nights.  For the cute lil Piggy & Heart I just stamped them in black and used the Coloring Book Watercolor Pencils to color them in, I did NOT add water since this is not the correct type of paper.  I also added some "List" categories for her on the far right!  Thinking I should have added a "Clean your room" under the first category! lol

Her planner also has weekly layouts, but when I decorate my Monthly views I always make sure there is still room for writing things in!  Thanks for stopping by!

For these projects I used Coffee Plans, Clear Planner, Everyday Plans, Clear Planner set, Express Yourself Halloween, We've Got Your Stickers Treats, We've Got Your Stickers Plus Jack-o-Lantern, Coloring Book Watercolor Pencils (12 pack)

Happy Crafting!

Halloween Heat Transfer T-Shirt by Shantaie

Shantaie Fowler loves playing with vinyl and she had fun creating this "adult" t-shirt for Halloween!

This spirited shirt has all of the fun and whimsy of Halloween but with a bit of grown up flair.

Heat transfer vinyl is one of the greatest inventions ever for makers, crafters, and DIYers, it gives us a tool to express ourselves in anyway we can conjure up!

I used my Silhouette Cameo to create this design and cut it in reverse from white heat transfer vinyl and ironed onto a black tee. It really was that simple.

That fun ghost and those bubbles!!! 

Heat transfer vinyl is really fun, and once you try it you may not be able to stop making everything you can dream up! 

And she found a fun glass already made but you could probably make one using our new 751 Dishwasher Gloss vinyl.  Super fun! 

What would you make for Halloween using Vinyl?  The possibilities are endless!

Pumpkin Candy Boxes! by Michele

Good morning!

Michele here with some fall treats!

I think these little clear boxes are so dang cute!

I took a piece of burlap and adhered it to the outside of the box.

I cut a bunch of pumpkins with my Silhouette. I inked the edges and layered them using Crafty Foam Tape.   I did a bit of Copic coloring on the leaves and layered everything on to the top of the box.  I added a sentiment from the Express Yourself Halloween Sticker set.   I even cut out the teeny candy corn and adhered it to a clear button. 

I tied the black and white twine and tucked the sentiment underneath and glued the button/candy corn to the top.  

My boxes are all ready for my co-workers to receive, for a little sweet pick me up!! 

Have a great day!

Boo! Halloween Tubes & Pillow Boxes by Tangii

Hey yall, Tangii here.  For today's post I put together some Halloween goodies for the neighborhood kiddo's.  I started out playing with some Clear Tubes and then couldn't really stop myself, lol. and I added some small Kraft Pillow Boxes.

I grabbed some Fall candy from the store to fill up the Tubes (M&M's, Caramels & Candy Corn Assortment) and a couple of sticker sheets to decorate with.  I chose to use Stickers By The Dozen: Halloween and We've Got Your Stickers: Treats.  I just used 1 sheet of each, I was trying to keep this as an affordable idea, I figured I could make at least 10 more tubes with the 2 sheets I grabbed.

I liked that the stickers had a clear background so the candies showed through.  For those "tags" at the top, I grabbed some of these great Punched Pieces (they come in 3 sizes), I chose a small layered on a medium.  To fill in some of the space on the medium circle I used a Black & a White Gel Reminisce Pen to add some dots.  I wrapped some Black & Orange Twine around the tube a few times, then tied a bow through the tags.

And finally, these adorable little Pillow Boxes!  I LOVE that they come in Kraft (also available in clear)!!  I added a few of the stickers from the same 2 sheets, closed them up and secured them with some great Orange Jute!  I LOVE how easily these all came together (seriously, I worked on them while doing laundry!).  Between the "quick & easy" and the "easily affordable", I will be making these for all of our Trick-or-Treaters!

For these projects I used Clear Tubes, Pillow Boxes, Stickers By The Dozen: Halloween, We've Got Your Stickers: Treats, Punched Pieces, Black & White Gel Reminisce Pen, Black & Orange Twine and Orange Jute.

Happy Crafting!

Candy Corn Treat Boxes by Shanna

Hello everyone!! Shanna joining you today!
Now that the back to school craziness has come and gone, and we are settling back into routines....that can only mean one thing! Fall and Halloween are just around the corner!!  EEeep! It is my ultimate favorite time of year..I love the color changes outside, definitely LOVE the drop in temperatures, absolutely adore the fact that pumpkin spice lattes are back (YUM!), and of course I love all of the sweet treats that appear on the store shelves in anticipation of Halloween!

So to celebrate it's arrival, I thought I would have some fun making a sweet and corny gift! (hehe)   

I grabbed some amazing SRM products for this project, and it whipped together in no time!  

Here is what you will need:

SRM Clear Triangle Box

SRM Stickers by the Dozen/Halloween stickers

SRM We/ve Got Your Border/Halloween stickers

Orange Scallop, White Scallop, and Black Scallop Punched Pieces

Candy Corn (or your choice of sweet treats)

Adhesive of choice (I used double sided foam tape and tape runner)

I started off by layering a cutesy candy corn sticker on an orange scallop, and layered that on top of yellow and black scallops for some fun dimension. I also opted to pop up the orange scallop as well with some foam tape.  

I used my border stickers to edge our the box and frame my centerpiece.  I love how the clear base of the sticker lets the candy peek through!  My sentiment piece I decided to adhere to the bottom of my triangle.  Easy peasy! 

I also added a paper pieced background to allow it to be a little decorative while empty as well!  All you need to do is trace the triangle side of the box on a scrap piece of cardstock and adhere strips of yellow, orange, and white cardstock to the front and back of your template, making it double sided. Trim the edges to fit inside the Clear Triangle box and you have yourself a background! I added some fun stickers on it as well to help decorate the back of the box since the candy won't be visible.  

This would make a great neighbor gift or teacher gift around Halloween!  

Thanks for stopping by! 

What's your favorite sweet treat for Halloween??

Trick or Treat Mason Jar Lantern by Emma

Hello crafty friends!  Emma here to wish you all a happy Fall!  Of course it is sad to say goodbye to Summer, but Fall is definitely my favourite season.

Today I'd like to share an easy project you can make with an empty Mason jar, and a few supplies from the SRM Store.

 

 Here, in addition to my Mason jar, I have some black vinyl, orange jute twine, black and orange striped paper bags, orange scalloped circle, burlap ribbon, ink spray and a battery operated votive candle.

 First, I sprayed the inside of my empty jar with some purple alcohol ink.  You could also use other colours, or leave the glass clear if you like.  I set the ink using a heat gun, and I love the gnarly look it takes on.

 Using the SRM black vinyl, I cut the phrase 'Trick or Treat' using my Silhouette Cameo, and adhered it to the jar.  I advise using transfer tape with vinyl lettering when applying to other surfaces; it saves a lot of time and heartache!

Next, I used the orange striped paper bag to decorate the top of the lid.  The black striped bag was used on the side of the lid, and I then added the orange twine wrapped around several times.

 After placing an orange scalloped paper circle in the bottom of the jar, I then put in the battery powered votive candle.  A Fall leaf from an old wreath sets off the lantern perfectly.

 So there you have a finished lantern all ready to use in your Halloween decorations!  You could easily make several with different phrases or other colours on the glass.

Thanks so much for joining me today, and happy crafting!

Halloween Treats 4 Ways by Samantha

Hello! Samantha here, and today I'm getting ready for Halloween. I've got 4 different containers all packaged up with treats, but here's the best part: I only used one sticker sheet to decorate all 4 containers. 

I'm telling you, no matter what you have to package up, SRM has a container for that! As you can see in the photo above all 4 containers are decorated with stickers from the We've Got Your Sticker Treats sticker sheet. Here's a closer look a the different containers I chose to use and what fits inside.

First up are the pillow boxes. They come in 3 different sizes (small, medium, large) and 2 different materials (kraft and clear). The small pillow box is perfect for a handful of candy corn, while the medium size fits a couple of fun sized candy bars or bags. The clear are a great way to show off brightly colored candy, while the kraft are great for making your treat a surprise. 

One of my all time favorite SRM products are the clear tubes, but if you're looking for something just a bit different this time around (and something that won't roll away from you), these tall thin clear boxes are super fun. I stuffed mine with 4 pieces of licorice, but smaller candies like Rollos, M&M's, Skittles, Kisses, and the like fit wonderfully in this box. 

The last box I decorated was a kraft window box. This comes in a few different sizes, but I chose the 4 1/8" x 4 1/8" size. This box fits 3-4 fun sized candies in it. You also get the best of both worlds; both a clear window and a kraft box to decorate with stickers. You can even match your stickers (pumpkin sticker) to your candy (Reeses Pumpkin) like I did. 

And that's it guys! All you need is one sheet of stickers to decorate all these treats...and you'll even have stickers left over to use in your planner or scrapbook. 

Halloween Treat Bags by Shelly

Hey y'all! Shelly, here.

Today I'm sharing some fun Halloween treat bags with you!

I started with using some of SRM Stickers patterned bags. In this case, I chose orange chevron and black polka dots. After, I simply filled them with goodies. 

To tie the bags off, I added some fun tags that I made with patterned paper and some stickers, as well as some black twine. 

Quick and easy, yeah?!...

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Enjoy your day!

Beware of Hitchhiking Ghosts Halloween Sign by Samantha

Hello! Samantha here with you today to share a Halloween decor idea. We love to decorate for Halloween in our family, but my kids aren't too big on the scary aspects of Halloween. We are also big Disney-a-holics in our family, so I decided to draw inspiration from one of our favorite Disney rides (the Haunted Mansion) and create this Beware of Hitchhiking Ghosts Halloween sign. 

For this project all you'll need is wood (mine is about 11" x 13" long), paint (I used white and gray), SRM vinyl (I used black and gray), and a way to cut vinyl (I uses a Silhouette Cameo).

I started by painting my wood with white paint. To give this a little more of a distressed look, I sponged a little gray paint around the edges when the white paint had dried. 
  

 
I cut my black vinyl words using a free font called Haunted Mouse. I thought it had the perfect haunted house feel to it...old, elegant, and a little bit creepy! I added my hitchhiking ghost that I cut from gray vinyl last. It was easiest to line up my words on top first, then my words on the bottom, and finally center my hitchhiking ghosts in the empty space. 

Since we have awesome memories of family time spent on this ride, this sign is a perfect piece of not too scary Halloween decor. Do you ever take decor inspiration from your favorite places? 

Mixed Media Halloween by Tobi

Hi there, it's Tobi Crawford here with some mixed media fun! Halloween is a great reason to get a little messy with your projects, and it's fun to let loose and experiment a little.

I used a 3x3x3 Kraft box as my base. Before I assembled it, I did some stencilling, and misting and created a fun little background for the vampire (Sizzix). 

(For all of the stencilling I used Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks)

Once all of the sides were decorated, I folded the box into place and added the sentiment and vampire!

Sentiment is Stickers By The Dozen Take 2: Halloween.

Life is Pure Adventure Layout by Giorgia

Hello SRM friends, Giorgia here and today I am sharing a layout with you.
 I love making layouts.  It is my favorite way to preserve memories.

I scrapped this picture of my hubby in front of a mural.  The picture had great colors and I matched them with papers and SRM stickers. I adhered some of them on white cardstock and then fussy cut them, to make them pop from the background. Use foam tape to adhere to give an extra pop! 

 I adhered one sticker directly on the picture: I love the subtle transparency of SRM stickers!

One of my favorite SRM products are We've got your border stickers. I added a lot of them! 

Until next time,

ciao, Giorgia.

Halloween Treat Box by Michele

Hi there! Michele here with a fun Halloween treat box!  

Does anyone else love the Dollar Spot at Target? I just can't help browsing through all of their cute things!  I picked up a package of precut pie boxes.  

 

They are perfect for sneaking some treats into!

I applied glue to the top of the box and sprinkled on glitter to resemble candy corn. I topped the box off with a die cut flower that was colored and heavily glittered. 

 

A few leaves, twine, and of course a Stickers by the Dozen Halloween sentiment from SRM!

Thank you so much for popping by today!!

Crafting with my Daughter by Melanie

Hello! Melanie here to share a project my daughter made with some SRM products. She had some surprise treats for a friend in one of her theater productions. We picked out Halloween papers and SRM stickers. 

  

I tried really hard to let her do her own thing :) Sometimes that is hard to do! She asked me for suggestions a couple of times but I really wanted it to be her own creation.

She decided to use the Halloween Border stickers and "TREATS" from the Treats We've Got Your Sticker sheet.

To add some depth and texture, she added a strip of burlap with trimmed edges. Then she layered the pumpkin sticker on top of a large black scallop punched circle. She wrote her friend's name in white ink on a medium black scallop circle and tied it onto the bag using Black shimmer twine.

 

Love those green Sticker Stitches from the Halloween Border Stickers along the bottom! 

Thanks for joining us today and have a very Happy Halloween!

Halloween Treat Bag by Shelly

Hey y'all! Shelly, here! 

Today, I'm sharing a little Halloween treat bag with you! 

I was staring at some glassine bags and thought it would be fun to add some texture to it. After a little bit of thinking, I thought using a stencil and embossing paste would be fun! :) 

I started with my bags and added my stencil over it and then the embossing paste. Afterwards I let them dry. Once done, I started on my little tags. Which I did some die cutting with and then simply placed a sticker on top. 

Once having all my bags and tags done, I filled each bag with a few candies and a few little stickers. To finish things off, I folded the top of my bag and used a mini staple to add my tag. Simple and fun, yeah?!...

Thanks so much for stopping by! 

Enjoy your day and see y'all soon!
