Christmas Countdown Calendar from Cookie Sheet!

Sharing my latest work of heART using the November Stamp of the Month. Cookie sheet ($1 plus spray paint .25) and matchboxes ($2.50) from dollar tree. Magnets from Walmart ($3). Embellishments could add up but I had all this and not all of it is CTMH...jingle bells, tiny ornaments, lace and ribbon, snowflake and heart brads. Buttons, bottle caps run through my big shot, discontinued font for the word Christmas. Old and new papers. I wanted the vintage look but you could do your own version of what you have. Many hours of prep time. I pre-stamped everything. Bling, tinsel, tiny key, tiny safety pin, yadda yadda...Use score tape for the seam on the matchbooks. Use liquid glass, glue gun or I prefer Beacons 3 in 1 glue for adhering the magnets. Use Bonding memories for the papers on the backing. (Only paint the sides not the center of the cookie sheet) Medallion behind the flower on the 25 box. Hope you likey!

CTMH Close To my Heart Cricut Artiste Pumpkin Treat Box

This is the little pumpkin treat box we are making at the team meeting tonight.  Inspired by Mary Thompson, I just had to share!
Box using ARTISTE page 32 @ 4 1/2" in Autumn Terra Cotta
I used an embossing folder and my Big Shot for the pattern on the CS
Leaves page 54 (the two) at 2" and a single using the Pear and partridge B&T page 32 @1"
Tag Page 37@ 1 1/4 using set B1410 A Friend Like You Occasions
I added a tied piece of our burlap for the stem and stuck it through the slot and taped it on the back...It closes with our new little velcro tabs.  Add a button and fill with goodies.

CTMH Artiste Cricut Cartridge Scalloped Treat Box

With your Artiste Cricut cartridge, cut two 3" size boxes.  One out of slate and one out of white.  Trim flaps off the slate one, assemble both, and slip the white one inside.  Attach straw to stamped (perfect fit frames), scalloped circle. 

Add bakers twine.  Fill with candy!

We made this at Cindy Baker's team meeting! CUTE!
