OCL138 Spooky & Sweet

Happy, happy, joy, joy....glad it is the weekend.  Had a great class this morning and then came home and made a little treat "folder" for the Our Craft Lounge Challenge for this week.

This week the challenge is "spooky and sweet" and I managed to wrap both of those up in this one project.

I created a simple folder from a 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 sheet of kraft cardstock.  I scored at 4" from  each of the ends to create a little folder with a 1/2" spine.  I didn't create a pocket for the inside, instead I just added some Tombow Mono Dots Adhesive to the inside and stuck a snack size bag of Nutter Butter cookies right on top.


I ran the folder through my Cuttlebug with a  Sizzix plaid patterned embossing folder.  Sorry, I don't know the name.  I then went about decorating the front with various scraps of paper that were on my desk.  I cut the spiderwebs with my Cameo from THIS Silhouette cut file. I stamped the sentiment and spider from the Our Craft Lounge A Little Witchy set and tied the folder closed with some 1/8" black velvet ribbon from May Arts.  I thought this ribbon might be too fancy, but it kinda looks like fuzzy spidey legs :)
