Good morning everyone!

Yesterday was the Art MoB reception in Hendersonville, NC and since you, my bloggy friends, cannot come I brought the festivities to you! We had a glorious time, eating, drinking wine and chatting away the night. So many wonderful customers and artists all having fun; enjoy the slide show :) And sorry, no pictures of me...I'm the one behind the camera! :)

 

Here's a close up of the pumpkin treat boxes that I made for the party. They were a big hit, all gone before the party was over! :) This is last years October issue of the Cricut. ( I got a commission at the party to make 2 dozen Christmas favors! yay!! )

Cricut - Happy Hauntings cartridge

Helmars Liquid Scrapdots

Rangers - stickles

twine, gems - misc. 

 

Now I am off to join the Leaf Festival in Black Mountain, should be a beautiful day to walk around!

twist: noun

 An unexpected change in a process or a departure from a pattern

Here is a little treat container I made for the Art MoB store, it is an up-cycled cardboard roll :) The inside of the roll is painted black and the outside covered in paper. ( Great way to use up some of those Halloween paper scraps! )

I know this is an old idea, but I haven't seen one with a sentiment inside the shoe buckle before, so it has a new twist! I added a little sentiment that goes well with the witches shoe theme ;)

Some hand stitching around the top of her boot:
