Make It Sunday – 10.16.11

Welcome to our new blog series called “Make It Sunday!” Every Sunday we will be bringing you a fun project that you can make at home, with easy to do, step-by-step instructions! Today we want to show you how to use our tags to create a fun little Halloween tag!

I have a couple special trick-or-treaters that will be stopping by on Halloween so I thought I should make something a little extra cute and special for them! It’s always fun to get candy on Halloween, but when your candy comes in a super cute little package, it makes it even better!

Here’s the steps on how I created this quick and easy Halloween tag:

1. Cut a 2 x 4 inch piece of orange/yellow paper (I used Basic Grey: Out of Print – Batik)

2. Punch some 1 inch circles out of scrap paper and lay them over your 2 x 4 inch tag.

3. Spray some mist spray over them. (I used Studio Calico’s Mister Huey Dark Calico)

4. While that is drying, stamp a ghost (my ghost came from Market Street Stamps Sweet Spooks set) on some white paper and then spray some Studio Calico Mister Huey Shine Mist on it and set aside to dry.

5. Cut the blue, orange and brown striped pennant out from our Halloween Pennant set and use some letter stickers to write someones name on it.

6. Cut the Happy Halloween pennant out from our Halloween Lil’ Snippet, too.

7. Arrange the ghost and two pennants on the tag, along with a Halloween Tidbit and glue down.

8. Cut the top two corners of the 2 x 4 inch tag at an angle to create a fun look, punch a hole and string some ribbon through it to tie to a candy bag later!

Alright, now we have a fun surprise for you! Each “Make It Sunday” will also end with a giveaway that includes all the Elle’s Studio products we used in the project we made above and sometimes it will also include products from other scrapbooking manufacturers!

This Sunday we are giving away:

Elle’s Studio Lil’ Snippets-Halloween, Halloween Pennants and Halloween Tidbits, along with Studio Calico Mister Huey’s Shine!
