pixie stix for school

I got this idea from http://chicnscratch.typepad.com/chic_n_scratch/2008/09/halloween-pixie.html. I just love the things she makes on her blog. I saw them and thought they were so cute I just had to do them for Jake and Megan to hand out to their friends at school. I entered them on the Stamp Something challenge which was to make something for Halloween http://stampchallenges.blogspot.com/



I tried to take step by step pictures so you can see each stage what I did.



First I stamped the image in color and using a 1 inch punch cut them out.



Then I stamped the image again in Black and punched it out using the 1 3/8 punch.



I then glued the colored image onto the black one.



I punched out scallop circles in the co-ordinating cardstock color and stuck these together also.

I placed white dots around the scallop using a gel pen. The scallop was then attached to the pixie stix using a glue dot. I punched more scallops out and attached one to the back with dimensionals.



The SU stamp set was Batty for You. The cardstock and ink colors used were Only Orange, Real Red, Tempting Turquoise and Orchid Opulence. The little bucket is from the dollar shelf at Target.

Thanks for looking.
