This week's Bloggers Challenge was to use "Black & Orange" in our projects. I've always wanted to try one of these nugget boxes and found the tutorial through Julie Tilman's blog this week. This was her Mojo Monday challenge for us. I love it when I can combine challenges and create just one project. Between working, raising 2 little boys, laundry, dishes, etc. --- I have to be creative with my 'free' time! Ok... don't tell... but I had to sample a few of the nuggets in the bag. I need to get rid of the wrappers and hide the evidence! :) You wouldn't want any. They're really not that good... ;) he he he
I was so excited when I covered the nuggets and found that my little 'Boris the Spider' (Rubber Soul) fit perfectly on top! Yea! I used the Booglie Eyes set from SU for the 'Boo' sentiment (just inking the word I wanted with a marker). The bat on the sleeve is also by Rubber Soul (Happy Bat). I added Black Stickles to him to give him a little sparkle. I added a little spritzing of black with my SU marker and Spritzing Tool. I ordered the Copic Airgun system from Paper Pretties and I CAN'T WAIT to get it!!! Yeah!!! It's going to be so cool! Keep your eyes peeled next week for some samples! Oh! And PP's is having a sale this weekend! Check out the post below for the det's!
I used the large Oval Punch from SU for the tag, backing it on black CS. I used some small scalloped scissors to get the edges to look like bat's wings (just hold them backwards to change the shape!) The sentiment is made with KF Snap Stamps. I added some wide black organdy ribbon and some spooky fiber for the final touches.
This was a really fun project and the tutorial was easy to follow! :)
