Kid-Friendly Halloween Owl

by Designer Adrienne Ford

"I found this cute Metal Owl at a retail store. I thought it might be cool to jazz up his wings a bit. I sat down to work on him, and the kids ended up joining in. They loved it!" ~Adrienne

.

"My son made the circles for his wings with a circle punch, I distressed the edges with ink, and my daughter "helped" glue them in place. It was fun. I wrapped Washi Tape around his legs, and added some stickers and Raven What Nots to his shoulder. I found a Prima Vine that I tucked behind the Raven, and also added some La Tiza flowers here and there."

October Love Layout

by Educator Sharon Laakkonen

"When I saw the Raven line I thought of these photos of my daughter and her fiance taken last October.  The gorgeous pics really pop against the cool greys." ~Sharon

"Prima has EVERY color embellishment you could ever ask for...like these new flowers and brads in sunshine yellow and pumpkin orange. I think they add that special something to the page without distracting from the photos."

"A wood frame blends beautifully with the other natural elements (wood-grain paper, flowers and outdoor photos) on the page for a sweet Glitz/Prima combo."

How nice of you! We always get together and take the children trick or treating and then come back to the house and have a chili party. Of course, this is more for the adults because the kids are too busy trading treats!

[Judi Taylor]

I still love to trick-or-treat. My kids are older so I trick or treat with my nieces and nephews. I even wear a costume. Love Prima and Glitz!

[Traci]

Halloween is my favorite and what could be better than Prima and Glitz products to scare up some fantastic projects. I love seeing the kids all dressed up for Halloween since mine are all grown I just hand out candy and visit with the kids.

[Rhonda Strickland]

Such AWESOME Halloween inspiration!! We celebrate Halloween with a pumpkin shaped pizza, and passing out candy. :o) thanks

[fusiafscrapping]

Thank you for such a wonderful ideas. On haloween I go to the cemetery and lit candles. We punt bunches of chrysanthemums on the tombs. Sometimes in time with the family recall the deceased.

[Maggie Castillo]

We like to decorate the front of the house with all types of Halloween decor. Then on October 31, we set up a tape player(yes, tape player and a tape with Halloween phrases) by the front window. I watch from another window for the kids coming up to the door and signal my husband to start the tape with phrases such as "don't ring that doorbell" in a creepy voice. We can see the kids hesitate before they reach the front door. I then open the door and hand out the candy. We have so much fun. I love Halloween!

[Romy]

Oh wow, I just love these Halloween projects! What a great match Glitz and Prima make!

[Stokely]

Autumn is a time when sky is this amazing blue. And it's also a time for apple pies)

I sooooo love watching all the little spooks and witches trick or treat. One of my favorite holidays! and would be honored to win something so GREAT!.

[Sleigh]

Spooktacular projects and goodies! Hallowe'en is one of my fav times of year/holiday... we've been getting the front yard looking like a graveyard for a few years now and carve many a pumpkin for Hallowe'en night when those little ones come around. If Hallowe'en falls on a Friday or weekend we hold a party... during the week after the trick'or'treaters have come by we head up to our niece/nephews place and enjoy some goulish fun with everyone and end the night with fireworks!

[Trent Miller]

Wonderful projects from the team as usual! My family just went to a not so scary party at Sea World Orlando, Mickey's not so scary Halloween next week and of course trick or treating for my little monsters! And of course a ridiculous amount of Halloween craftiness....thanks for the chance to win!

[Karen L K]

The projects are really great! I like that there is several different types of things. I love Halloween. I decorate inside and out and love giving out the candy especially to the little ones. I also roast pumpkin seeds while handing out the candy.

[Carla Bange]

Halloween is my favorite holiday (followed closely by Christmas)... I start with decorations at the office and at home. I celebrate the actual date by taking the afternoon off work and heading home to hand out treats to all the little ones in our neighborhood who trick-or-treat early. I love to see their little costumes and more often than not, I'm in costume, too. It's also my father's and niece's birthday so I make birthday/Halloween cards for them beforehand so they will arrive in time for the big day!

[Paula Gale]

OMG - double and triple WOW - these projects are FABULOUS! The designers have really excelled themselves and just blown me away with their super halloween masterpieces - seriously fun!!!!

Paula x x x

[Paula Gale]

I've now linked this blog up to my facebook page using the required hashtag!!!

and oops... I forgot to say in my previous comment how I celebrate Halloween... well, being as my kids are now grown up and not interested (they're 20 & 17), I just like to dress the living room bay window and my entrance door and canopy up (which is to the front of the house) with a few halloween icons, then we get loads of treats in a massive bowl and keep answering the door to all the young kids out with their parents trick or treating... I've even thought this year that I might do the unexpected and dress up to answer the door. It appears for us that our trick or treating days are over - so I enthuse over all the little kids who do it now - it brings back all the memories of when my boys were doing it - which doesn't feel like that long ago!!!

[Karen barker]

Wow stunning projects by the team , very inspirational. We go trick or treating at Halloween. This year my husband is dressing up as a horse, must scrap tones pics

[Caroline D.]

Super gorgeous and fun projects! Thanks for the inspiration! I love to craft for halloween and make several new decorations every year. We also enjoy watching all the halloween shows and movies too.

Living in Australia, we don't really celebrate Halloween and the northern tropics doesn't really experience autumn. We have two seasons here - wet and dry. It doesn't mean I don't appreciate the great Halloween designs I see by crafters all over the internet, though. :)

[Melissa]

Amazing talent and ideas!

[SteffyC]

I attended a Halloween crop last week. There are also a few activities this weekend and parties as well. Thses projects are amazing!

[SteffyC]

[Laura Strack]

On Halloween, we love to set up our chairs in the driveway at our house and hand out candy to all the cute trick or treaters. We will start a fire in the fire pit, if it is cold enough and just sit back a watch the Parade begin! We like to wear rabbit or doggy ears headbands or dress like zombies. It's fun to see the look on all the kiddos face and get their reaction. Usually, they don't realize we are zombies until they get close to us and are reaching their hand into our bowl of candy. So much fun!

[Mary]

These project are amazing. I love Halloween, we decorate a spooky tree in front of our house with lights and bats and ghosts.

[glee]

Wow! Totally amazing; each and every one. Thanks for the incredible inspiration. I had to jump up and start making something half way thru the post!!

[Candace Bunch]

I like the paper collection! That skeleton took real imagination. Everything is so inspiring...I want to be just like these designers when I grow up! lol!

[Candace Bunch]

Oh, just to add...I usually do some serious decorating on my porch for Fall. Last year I had a party and turned the house into something old and haunted.

[Helen Tilbury]

Another gorgeous selection of projects!! I live in an evergreen climate but Fall looks wonderful! When I get to experience it one day I want a photoshoot in all the leaves under a big tree :)
