I can’t believe we are half-way through the month of October already. Halloween is quickly approaching us isn’t it? My granddaughter Kaitlynn is so excited about Halloween this year. She is 4 and understands things so well now. She loves giraffes as you know from previous posts and requested a giraffe costume this year. My daughter found her the cutest costume and I can’t wait to show you.
For today’s card, a little light bulb went off in my head. I just love our Cannery Framelits Set and coordinating Perfectly Preserved Stamp Set. I wanted to fill my little mason jar with candy corn:

How cute is that?

And notice how I made the jar topper with 2 different colors? I cut out two pieces, one using Tangerine Tango Cardstock and the other using Polka Dot Parade DSP. I cut the ruffled portion off of the Tangerine Tango layer with my Paper Snips and glued to the Polka Dot Parade DSP layer:

And what about the “Candy Corn” pieces? Do you want to know how I made those…super easy!
Start out with the following:
- Whisper White Cardstock cut with the 1/2″ Circle Punch
- Tangerine Tango Cardstock cut with the 3/4″ Circle Punch
- Daffodil Delight Cardstock cut with the 1″ Circle Punch:

Layer and glue all 3 pieces together as shown:

Using your Paper Snips, cut the circle in half:

Cut each half into 3rds:

Fill your jar! I glued some randomly here and there and then added a few on top of each other using a 1/4 of a Stampin’ Dimensional:
