Esmeralda and Baby Ruth in a Bottle

Looking for a tasty Halloween treat to concoct with only 3 ingredients? Well today is your lucky day. I girl I use to work with would make this every October and bring it in for us to feast on....however be warned, it's like the candy equivalent to a highly addictive drug because you'll be hooked on it after one handfull. It will drive you to raid Walgreens late at night prowling the isles for candy corn and dry roasted peanuts! Seriously, it tastes just like a Baby Ruth bar if you get some peanuts, a piece of candy corn and a few chocolate chips in your mouth all at once.

Baby Ruth in a Bottle Recipe

1 large bottle of Planters Dry Roasted Peanuts

1 large bag of Candy Corn

1/2 bag of Hershey's Milk Chocolate Chips

Mix all together, stick it in a bottle or bowl and enjoy!

Butterfly Art Doll and Free Collage....

I can't believe it's been a week since I last blogged! This was a busy week and I didn't get much studio time at night so I made sure I got into it tonight to finish this altered art doll. Her name is simply "FLY". I started her on Monday and finally got her finished tonight. Sometimes the creative muse flies around, ever elusive and that was the case for me this week. I'm happy with the finished piece, she reminds me of some kind of strange super hero. I especially like her red Doc Martin boots. I got the idea to use the boots from my very talented friend Marsha from Tumble Fish Studio. Please stop by her blog and check out Marsha's amazing creations!

If you would like "Fly" for your very own you can find her on Ebay right now! Here are a few close ups of her. Her arms and legs are moveable.

Back to the boots........aren't these cool!??!?! I plan on using them on a Halloween doll I started tonight.

Hmmmm....I really dig these blue boots, actually I have a pair similar to them.Which brings me to the free collage sheet.......... I put this together last night in a Word document and I'd like to email it to you to use in your collages. Just think of the cool characters you can construct wearing these colorful boots! Shoot me an email and I'll send you 2 sheets in an attachement. A sneak peak of what I'm creating with the winged boots........On the way home I stopped at Borders and bought this book that I've been eyeballing for about 6 months now. What was different tonight that I bought it? I had a 25% off coupon! This is a really good book. It has a plethera of paint, dye and stamping technqiues to use on paper. I can't wait to try out some of the techniques, especially the one that makes paper look like sea glass! I might have to do some tutorials on the some of the techniques in future blogs.
