Last year I made a candy corn box which was really popular. I received several requests for the directions but because of all the angles it was easier to do a live demo. Since I don't know how to do a YouTube video yet, (it's on my list of things to learn) I was never able to share it with my SCS buddies. "Memories Lives On" has put together a kit you can buy online, of a per cut candy corn box. All you need to do is score the lines. They are super cute and would make great party favors! I added the bats swirling around the box and I plan to add some eyeball candy. Candy Corn Kit
Flat Fish Paper Arts was born many years ago when blogging first started. My family did a lot of camping and diving along the California coast. California halibut are huge fish that start out as any normal fish. As they age, one eye will start to move to the other side and the halibut will become flat so it can lay on the bottom of the ocean with both eyes facing up.
I always like the idea that we all start out the same but life experiences slowly changes us. In my case, my creative talents went the way of paper arts. Flatfish are always looking up when they mature and as with any artist, we see inspiration in everything around us - always looking up.

Years ago a local dive shop had a photo of a diver who caught a halibut so big he had to throw it over his jeep to take the picture. Our little spoof with our daughter sitting in her toy jeep with dad's halibut on the hood. 1987
