Fundraising goodies

I've had a busy few weeks making lots of things for our charity fundraising event at work last Wednesday, for Breast Cancer and Teesside Hospice. We had a great day and have raised £1770 so far so it was worth all the effort. 
It was a good excuse for me to make Halloween goodies so these are what I made

 
 Cellophane bags with these brilliant chews that just a say fit. They have them in Home Bargains 89p and Morrissons for £1 at the moment. The top is one of the Apothecary framleit dies cut in half and stuck together to enclos the bag.
 
The hands are latex gloves stamped with halloween images using Stayz On black ink. Fill with sweets,tie ribbon round the top and a tag, very simple but effective and different. They were popular. Thanks to Natalie for finding the idea on Pinterest!

 This is a Stampin up Decorative Window Box with Witches Brew DSP stuck on the sides, a tag and some bats created using butterfly punches! I saw this idea from a Stampin Up demonstartor Kimberley Lewis.

How to create the bats - punch a butterfly out of black cardstock and then stick with removable glue onto scrap paper.

 Put the punched butterfly back into the punch to punch it again. The top of the butterfly wings cuts the bottom of the top wings of the butterfly - how clever is that!
