Awhile back I purchased Lawn Fawn stamp and die sets at HM Ben Franklin Crafts. The original design had jelly beans and matching sayings. Recently, I found auxiliary sets for Halloween which contained candy corn designs. I used both sets to make these tags for goodie bags to give to special trick-o-treaters. The bases for these tags were made with a Little B tag die (from a set). I cut the bottoms off the tags to make them a bit shorter. A die cut acetate jar was glued over the candy corn.
The 'more than candy corn' is my favorite part of the tag because it reminds me of how much my sister would trade for my Halloween loot of candy corn. LOL! I colored the stamped candy corn with Copic pens and applied Glossy Accents to give the pieces a realistic shine and dimension.
For a totally different look (more spooky) I used ominous card stock and Martha Stewart stickers. The jar covers were cut from metallic copper paper, the goop was made with Stickles, and the plastic eyes came from a giant bag of eyes...oh my!
These close ups shows a sticker bat stealing a candy corn and a sneaky cat thinking about it!
The Lawn Fawn jelly bean jar set (from BFC) has lots of design possibilities so it is one I suggest you invest in for lots of crafting fun. Well, that's all for Halloween 2017.... onward to Autumn crafts! Please visit this site again for more holiday ideas....leave a comment if you desire to make me insanely happy....love your feedback!
