For Day #3 in my 8 DAYS OF HALLOWEEN, I created this cute SNACK SIZE KIT KAT TREAT HOLDER and card. The products I used are from the THEM BONES SUITE in the new MINI CATALOG SEPTEMBER-DECEMBER 2023. The HOLIDAY MINI if you are old school like me. The BAG OF BONES BUNDLE and the THEM BONES DSP are so cute and perfect for projects for all your favorite trick or treaters.
To create the treat box, start with a piece of PUMPKIN PIE CARD STOCK measuring 4in by 5-1/4in. On the LONG side, score at 1-1/2in, 2in, 3-1/2in and 4in. On the SHORT side, score at 1/2in from both ends. The box will look like the template below after score lines are creased and the excess card stock has been cut away with a PAPER SNIPS.
Hold the card stock in the landscape position and using a CORNER ROUNDER, round the two corners at the flap end. Cut three panels of DSP, two measuring 1-3/8in by 2-7/8in. and one measuring 2-7/8in by 1-1/8. Before layering on the card stock, round the bottom corners of the small piece. Adhere all three panels using TOMBOW LIQUID GLUE.
To assemble the box, place glue on the lower set of tabs and the long outside vertical panels. Slide KIT KAT into the box. To make the tag, use the tag die from the suite to cut out SMOKY SLATE card stock. Using MEMENTO BLACK INK, stamp the sentiment on the left side of the tag. Stamp the cat image on a piece of BASIC WHITE card stock using SMOKY SLATE INK, cut out using the coordinating die and attach to the tag on the right side using STAMPIN DIMENSIONALS.
Punch a hole in the left end of the tag and thread a piece of WHITE & BLACK GINGHAM RIBBON through the hole and tie the tag to the treat box.
For the card, start with a CAJUN CRAZE card base. Layer two panels of DSP to the card front, one 4in by 5-1/4in and a coordinating pattern measuring 2in by 5in. as shown. Die cut a 2-3/4in tag from the TAILOR MADE TAGS using SMOKY SLATE card stock. Stamp the sentiment with CAJUN CRAZE INK. Thread a piece of BLACK & WHITE GINGHAM RIBBON through a punched hole. Place tag at the bottom right corner as shown using STAMPIN DIMENSIONALS.
Stamp the dog and cat image using SMOKY SLATE INK on BASIC WHITE card stock. Cut out the images using the coordinating dies. Place them along the top edge of the tag using DIMENSIONALS. To create the black pearls, I took three BASIC PEARLS and colored them with a BASIC BLACK BLEND. Let the ink dry and place the pearls on the card front.
To see how the treat box and card come together, watch the video below.
