We hope you'll all play along and create something fun! To give you some ideas here's a look at a couple of Trick or Treat projects from our team.
Trick or Treat patterned paper: Spooky Treats
Trick or Treat patterned paper: Starry Night
Trick or Treat patterned paper: Batty for You
Trick or Treat patterned paper: Scaredy Cat
Trick or Treat patterned paper: Fright Night
Trick or Treat patterned paper: Monster Crossing
Trick or Treat cardstock stickers
Other products used:
black, white cardstock (Bazzill)
glitter glue (Ranger)
twine (The Twinery)
Kristine'sTip: Punch several 1-inch circles out of various Trick or Treat patterned paper; layer circles to create fun scalloped edges. Take an extra few seconds to finish your project off with some glitter glue; in this case, on the pumpkin eyes and on the "Boo!!" cardstock sticker. Sometimes it's those little details that make the project shine.
Here's a great idea for a unique project from
This fun door hanger is totally fun and festive!
We hope these ideas will help get you into your craft rooms! We're looking forward to seeing your creations!
