 Happy Halloween!


What a crazy year this has been.  Did any of you think that when 2020 started we would be talking about not even having Halloween in some parts of the country?

Thankfully, my daughter is in school a couple days a week and the other days are done via zoom. She doesn't like it and can't wait to get back to full time.  She also made the volleyball team this year.  We were so excited.  They've only had 1 game because her high school closed for 2 weeks due to some cases but they are now back!  Yay!

This year I heard the words "I'm too old for trick or treating" and my heart broke.  I didn't know it would bother me. Just one more step to growing up.  Had I known last year would be her last I would have made her let me take a pic.   She's at that age, ya know?

I know, for me, if I could go trick or treating I would.  I have never been into Halloween decorations much; to me it's never felt like a holiday and I've never crafted much Halloween stuff...Paper Pumpkin has been it for me.  

Until this year. You know what got me?  The owls.

I absolutely love the Have a Hoot bundle.  I love the owls and I love that we can make them scary or sweet.  When I saw the Have a Hoot bundle and the rectangle treat boxes...I was convinced they would make great gift card holders for craft fairs....

The only issue...Covid!

Last weekend, I was actually fortunate enough to participate in a small, outdoor craft/vendor fair.  I brought the owls and I sold every single one...I wish I had made more.


I wrapped them individually in the 3 x 8 cellophane bags from Stampin' Up and tied it with a bow.  

The strips of Designer Series Paper are 2 1/2 x 8 and 1 1/2 x 8.  Wrap them and adhere them in the back. Keep them loose enough so you can slide it off the tin - but tight enough so it doesn't fall off on their own.

Aren't they adorable?

Happy Crafting
