Halloween Treat Holder

This week's Humble Pie Challenge is to create a Halloween Themed non-card item (anything but a card). My design is this treat holder I cased from Sue Nelson's design here. I made some adjustments to the template so I could add the ribbon handle.

I've used Witch Maggie, from the Humble Pie Line of stamps, as my focal point. Maggie can be purchased directly from Phebe at the Town Scrapper. She's super sweet to deal with so give her a shout. She carries an assortment of stamps and crafting accessories.

I cropped and then coloured Maggie with Copics (E000, E00, E21, R20, C3, C5, C7, E31, E33, E35, YR04 & YR15). I used 3 Martha Stewart punches (Spider web, Bat, & Boo) and Spellbinder standard circle dies for the main image. I sponged SU So Saffron ink around the image so it looks like the moon is behind Maggie. Papers, removable glue dot to close the holder and ribbon for the handle were from my stash.

Come and checkout the rest of the DT's wonderful creations here. Join in, get inky and play along with us. You could be the lucky winner of $10 in Humble Pie Maggie Money to spend on Humble Pie stamps of your choice.

TGIF ~ Hugs,
Maria

CUTE - wish I had that web-edge punch - MS punches takes forever to hit the stores here in Denmark. Haven't seen this one here yet. Snowflake border is another one I would love to see here.
