Happy Halloween...Take THREE!!!

Hello stampers!!! I hope you are having a great day! It has been a very busy week, playing catch up from being sick for a week, trying to get everything ready for Halloween, and working on stamping goodies!!! They say that "the THIRD time is a charm".... and for this project, "they" are right!!!! This is my THIRD candy goodie for my daughter's class Halloween party!!! I made two goodies for them using the Sweet Centers and Sweet Treats Cups, and I loved how they looked! HOWEVER, it just dawned on me (2 days ago!!) that I can't give candy that isn't packaged commercially!!! After all, isn't that what we teach our kids...not to eat candy that is open and from strangers!!!! So.....I went back to the drawing board, and without a lot of time!!!!! I pulled out some retired designer Halloween paper and retired Tangerine Tango cardstock, folded it "tent style" and then used the retired Yummy stamp set and made a candy tent! I stapled the candy inside and had my daughter sign each "card" and wa-lah!!!! SUPER easy and SUPER quick!!! After all, it was my THIRD attempt!!! That's what I get for getting things done early! I should know better! ;o) Anyways, I'm happy with how they turned out and Elle had a great time helping make them! Now....what do I do with ALL of those adorable Sweet Treat Cup Cards!?!?!? ;o)

by the way...How cute is her little handwriting!?! ;o)

I was also busy making Ghost Cake pops for her party! These cake pops have become my daughter's favorite dessert, and she can help me make them so that is always a plus~ this time we made the cake pops into ghosts! I think they turned out cute and, more importantly, they were yummy!!! ;o) A BIG hit with the kids and an even BIGGER hit with the teachers!

Speaking of teachers, as I have posted before, I made the Frankenstein and Mrs. Frankenstein boxes for all the teachers in her school (I told you I've been busy!!!!) Elle was SUPER excited to hand these out to each of them~ so cute! They loved them!

As you can tell, my family LOVES Halloween!!! We tend to go a little over board with it, but it is all worth the last few sleepless nights! I hope you and your family have a wonderful weekend, no matter how you spend it!!! I'll be back on Monday with some Fall / Thanksgiving goodies!!!

Thanks for looking!
