Junk Journal – Stranger Things – Dig N’ Dip

Stranger Things and Candy – what a combination. In this layout I used red and blue cardstock cut diagonally and glued together. Then each sheet of 8.5 x 11″ cardstock got glued together with a paper hinge. I then attached both sides of two different variations of candy wrapper that was inside allover. That made my background. See that here:

I then printed several of the Demogorgon mouth out on an inkjet printer. I put one on each corner and one in between each corner. I then glued down the outside bag pieces in the middle. I then printed out some advertising the promotion used and cut it down for a column from top to bottom on each side of the outside candy bag that is in the middle. I then cut thin wavy strips of black paper to go along all of the edge to frame the layout and glued them down. Then I used a metallic purple paint marker to outline the different pieces I glued down and edged the border and topped that off with a sealant of Mod Podge. Then my final piece. I hope you like this layout. I will post more soon!

What cool party treats are these. A simple Kit Kat broken down into pieces. Dip 1/3 of one end into mint green candy melts. While still wet attach chocolate candy (you could use a small Reeces Peanut Butter Cup) and add candy eyes. With black licorice add hands, mouth and scar. Yummy and scary at the same time.

Break Kit Kat bars apart. Dip top third into green candy melts or green tinted melted white chocolate. Here we topped them off with half sphere shaped chocolates but you could use a Rolo. Do this and place candies eyeballs pieces of licorice and black mark icing on as soon as possible after dipping in green melt. This will ensure good ‘glued’ contact.

Using light green frosting pipe and fill the center indentation. Put jelly beans or other egg shaped candy into icing. You can also put green tinted raw coconut into the top of the icing and then push egg shaped candy onto that.
