4 WEEK OF HALLOWEEN WEEK #4- TINY TREAT BOXES

Halloween is just six weeks away!!  Time is flying and those trick or treaters will be knocking at your door before you know it.  This blog post is my last in my 4 WEEKS OF HALLOWEEN Series.  I think next year I may have to extend it to 6 or 8 weeks.  Stampin' Up offers so many amazing products for this time of year, I couldn't share them all in just 4 weeks.  Our project this week uses the CLEAR TINY TREAT BOXES (141699).  We use the TOIL & TROUBLE SUITE again to do all the embellishing.


For the contents of the box, I used Hershey Miniatures, and wrapped them with the TOIL & TROUBLE DESIGNER SERIES PAPER. I used a 1 3/8 in by 2 1/2 in strip of DSP and attached it using GLUE DOTS.  You can fit about eight candies in the box.  I then tied up the box using the BLACK GLITTERED ORGANDY RIBBON.  Love the sparkle!!  For the tags, first I punched out a Whisper White card stock circle using the 2in CIRCLE PUNCH.  Using LEMON-LIME TWIST INK, I randomly stamped the tiny star images all over the circle.  With the STARBURST PUNCH, I punched a scalloped circle using PUMPKIN PIE cardstock.  Then I took my SNAIL ADHESIVE and layered them together.  For the front of the tag, I used the CAULDRON FRAMELITS and cut out the spider web using BASIC BLACK card stock.  I cut the witch's hat and the cat out of the DSP using the framelits.  I love that option.  If I'm in a rush I can use these images instead of stamping and coloring then cutting them out.  Then I simply layered them on the tag using TOMBOW ADHESIVE and DIMENSIONALS.   Using a 2in by 1/2in piece of Whisper White cardstock, I stamped the “Happy Halloween” sentiment and cut the banner end.  I used a 1/8in punch to stamp through both tags and tied them to the organdy ribbon using BASIC BLACK BAKER’S TWINE.

This is such a quick and easy project, making it easy to make multiples for all those trick or treaters. The TOIL & TROUBLE BUNDLE has so many possibilities.
