pop can mummy

Hi everyone,
I'm sorry I dropped off the face of the earth from a blog stand point. Time flies without realizing it. Who knew middle school would take so much time? Take that in consideration with a new sport my child is playing, the bible study I'm teaching now, my son starting boy scouts, and all the fun holiday projects I've been making have taken all my free time. Sorry it's been so crazy. I know these are too late for this year, but might give you some ideas for next year.

Now this mummy idea isn't new. I made a card with it last year. What was fun about this project was that we made pop cans with them. We just took a fruit can and I opened the bottom of it with a safe can opener. I then covered it with vanilla cardstock and a few vanilla strips edged with soft suede ink. I used punches to punch out the eyes. Really fast and easy. Then we filled them with treats, rimmed the bottom with crystal effects and sealed the bottom back on. They can pop the top that way. It was funny though, my daughters teachers were afraid to open them - afraid something would pop out. That would be a fun idea though. I might have to think about that for next time. Too fun.
I hope you have a Happy Halloween today and get more treats then tricks. :)
