Trick or treaty...

It's another Anything Goes week for the Peachy Keen Stamps challenge. Every year we camp down at the beach the weekend before Halloween and I like to have a little something for our younger camping companions. These little bags are just the right size and the right amount of candies for the little ones. For my coloring I used my Prismacolor pencils I just got for my birthday from my DH (that I ordered of course hehe). I got a to good to be true deal I think. I got the 150 piece set for $126.99 final cost. I believe they go for more than 2x that at Michaels and Joanns. I think I did an ok job in my coloring but it's gonna take some practice for sure. Hope you all like my little project.

Enjoy!

Boooo :(

So at Peachy Keen Stamps this week is Challenge 36 :: 3-D Objects :: CandlesI tried to recreate some super cute Halloween candles I saw on Pinterest by The Gold Jellybean but I only had one bubble shaped votive candle holder and not any tall straight ones. Oh well, thought I would give it a try anyway. Also instead of using the wiggly eggs I thought it would be cute to use a Peachy Keen Stamps face. It didn't would out as well as I thought it would but I got a " That's cute" from the passing by hubby LOL.

Enjoy!
