It's Week 8 of the 12 Weeks of Halloween here on Ink and Inspirations and we are making this cute and easy Tootsie Pop medallion.  This is a fun way to dress up a sucker type candy or even use a pick for a cupcake decoration.

Minimal supplies are needed here.  Just used my super colorful Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper and some adhesive.  Presto change-o...it's done!

Let's take a look at the video tutorial below...

Thanks for tuning in for this week's Halloween project with this Tootsie Pop Medallion and I hope you'll give it a try!

Week 7 of this 12 Weeks of Halloween of 2018 is the cute little ghost gift bag!  I had not used this stamp or framelit and so glad that it's featured on this weeks project.

This is the right size for one or two treat sized bags of Halloween candy. The construction is easy and you can jazz it up as much or as little as you'd like.

Here's the video so you can make these, too!

You can find this video on my YouTube channel HERE.  Be sure to subscribe!

Lisa's Inklings:

• Cut Designer Paper to 4" x 8".
• Score on the 8" side at 1/2", 3", 4 1/4", and 6 3/4". 
• Turn and score what will be the bag bottom at 1" from the edge as seen in the video.
• Cut Highland Heather to 1" x 5".
• You'll need a piece of approximately 3" x 3" for both Whisper White and Black Foil Paper.
