Stamp With Linda Walsh

 
 
Hi, Everyone,

Isn't this treat container the cutest thing?  Click the tutorial download below on how to create these cuties.  Just take off the cover and fill with pencils, candy, and whatever else you can think of.

I seem to be in a curly mode, and what I mean by that is the strips of paper in black and soft suede were curled around a pen and stuck to the back of the sentiment.  I don't know what you'd call those little curlies, but the past few projects I've done have had them on it.

Thanks for visiting with me today!

This will be one of our projects for club night September 9, 2009.  This was fun to make -  a little piecy but fun.  I cut out a whole Top Note die in white as a guide.  Then I cut out a Top Note in three colors, Pumpkin Pie, Summer Yellow and Old Olive.  A way to save on paper would be to cut the three colors into thirds and place them on your Top Note die so as only to cut it once with the three colors (not a whole Top Note for each color).  Using the white Top Note as your guide, glue all three pieces on.   Outline the edge with black marker.
Then cut a Top Note out of translucent paper.  Stamp your image on the translucent paper.  Dry with heat gun (translucent paper will smudge if handled and not dry).  I used small brads from a local craft store to adhere the translucent Top Note over my Top Note with the three colors.  I did use adhesive where the Haunted House is so you won't see it.  If anyone knows of some good adhesive that won't show through the translucent paper,  please share.
I then tied Black and Old Olive ribbon around the bottom of the Top Note and tied a piece of Pumpkin Pie ribbon to that.  I used Old Olive photo corners and it's done.
