More Happy Halloween!

I have the photos!

I bought a pumpkin carving kit from Waitrose and I have to say it's the best £1.99 I've even spent. It had all these fabulous tools which made carving them soooo much easier and it also had these great patterns to carve.
This is Josh's pumpkin and the design he chose which is called "Two Faced"


This is Ellie's pumpkin and the design she chose which is called "Spookily"

And here are my two little pumpkins in their Halloween costumes being very scary. Unfortunately Josh had to wear a jacket under his costume as I realised two late that all his white shirts are short sleeved and if he went out in just his shirt he would freeze as it's about 5°C outside right now. I think he got away with it though and no one really noticed.This is Ellie's very scary witch face. and this is Josh's "I'm-going-to-drink-your-blood" Dracula face!
They would have looked better with their faces painted but to be honest I wasn't really feeling well enough to do it. I think they looked awesome anyway even without the face paint.

Just in case you are missing some crafty stuff, these are the treat boxes I made for all the Happy Halloweeners, unfortunately we've not had very many this year so I still have loads left.I made them using a tutorial on Split Coast Stampers. I embossed all the papers using my Cuttlebug then filled them with treats and sealed them up. I'm so disappointed that we didn't have more kids round.
Oh well, I guess I'll just have to eat them all instead! :-)

Love the little treat boxes too - you should sit on the sofa and eat them all up and maybe you'll feel a bit better. ;) :)

Get well soon.
