Candy Corn Anyone?

Hello my crafty friends, I'm posting! Can you believe it?!!!! Well my design team obligations started today over at Cardz TV Gallery, so I will be back to posting twice a month at least. Still super busy with training Miss Savannah and we are getting there very slowly. I also was busy with last minute favors for a friend who was getting remarried in the Catholic church. The wedding was Saturday, so glad to have that done! Good news is that I was told I can have a job of making wedding favors for the restaurant that the wedding reception was held in! Wow, I just thought the favors were plain, simple so I could just get them done. So I'm excited about that. 

Today I have a little home decor project for you. I got the cut files from My Scrap Chick for these adorable candy corn boxes.  They aren't a box you can put any thing in, just for decor. I used a fall set of stamps and some Halloween sets from Cardz TV because I made it fall on one side of the candy corn and Halloween on the other side. So all I have to do is flip them around to keep them out a little longer!  They look so cute on the shelves and now I can't wait to get out the pumpkins to decorate!  Will be back this week with the favors I made for the adults and grandchildren and the place cards for the tables. Until then have a wonderful Sunday!!

Oh so cute!!!! My favorite thing about Halloween is eating the candy corn. I could eat a ton of that stuff!
Cute decorations and yes, they look exactly like candy corn.
Great news on making wedding favors for the restaurant too!

Well done huni! Them pups are a real handful but they'll keep you busy when you need to be. I do love corn myself especially the popped and sweetened kind. Looking forward to seeing your photos Karen xx

Ah fun indeed, Brenda, good way to brighten up a corner.
Happy crafting on the wedding favours, I'm guessing they're a thank you to guests, as we don't have them here. Think you're much more detailed over there.

These boxes are adorable Brenda!! And they do look like candy corn - yummy! Such a great idea to have them decorated on both sides so they can be displayed for a longer time. So clever and creative!! Glad to see you back designing and posting --- have missed you! xx

I literally did a happy dance when your post popped up in my Feedly! Thrilled you're back; doubly thrilled that you'll be dazzling and delighting us with your creativity more often! Your candy corn treat boxes...oh my! So incredibly pretty and how brilliant that they span over two occasions! Ingenious! How wonderful that you'll be designing favours for weddings; smart of them to hire incredibly talented you! As for Ms. Savannah: sounds like the two of you are bonding well and that she's become a fabulous companion. We'll need to see photos of you two gals soon (hint, hint *grin*). Heading back to admire those boxes for a while longer...
Hugs and love~c
