Reminisce

Simply Scary treat container ideas!

DT member Becky Kremke has done it again! This time she used the Reminisce Halloween Party papers and stickers to decorate treat containers!

For both of these fantastic ideas, you could easily recycle a bubble pack from any button or brad purchase and fill with candy before decorating!

Here's Becky's first idea, using an oversized sticker from the Icon Sticker sheet!

On the second candy pack, she embellished using an inked strip of cardstock, the B side of the You Don't Scare Me patterned paper and some more stickers!

Love that little accent tag she created using the cat sticker from the Icon Sticker sheet!

Great ideas Becky! Thanks for sharing them!

 

Spooky, Kooky Halloween project!

Look at the spooky, kooky Halloween project that DT member, Becky Kremke created with the Halloween Party line!

First, this fun 'witches hat' that she found at a local craft store, painted black and then decorated with the papers and embellishment stickers from the Halloween Party line:

Perfect for dressing up a pumpkin, or to complement a home made costume!

Love that little ghost sticker peeking out from behind the accordian flower! Super cute.

Thanks for sharing today Becky!

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree!! {ornament tutorial}

Today, DT member Kim Holmes is sharing a christmas ornament mini tutorial.

The Dear Santa Collection with all its vintage images has got to be my all-time favorite holiday line from Reminisce!  The Santa & Snowman Collage sheets just make me happy inside.  They bring back so many memories of my Grandmother’s house at Christmas time that I can’t help but smile!  I knew right away that I wanted to add some of these images to my Christmas tree this year so I went with quick & easy! 
 
Supplies:
 
2 x 2 squares of chipboard
#DS-001 – Santa Collage Sheet
#DS-002 – Snowman Collage Sheet
Emery board
Liquid glue
Hole punch
Distressing ink and applicator
Matte Accents (Glossy Accents or Modge Podge would be fine too)
Foam brush
String
 
Step #1 – cut out random images from the patterned paper – enough to cover front and back of your chipboard
 
 
 
Step #2 – using liquid glue, adhere images to chipboard.  Then file down the edges with the emery board.  Repeat on other side.

 

Step #3 – Apply distressing ink to edges of both sides
 
 

Step #4 – Punch holes in corner of each piece
 
 

Step #5 – Using small amount of Matte Accents and foam brush, seal edges and both sides.  Let dry.
 
 
 
Step #6 – Add string for hanging!
 
 
 
These were quick & easy and are going to look so great on my vintage Christmas Tree this holilday!  
 
 

What a great idea! Thanks for sharing Kim!
