Tomorrow is October 1st — how does time fly by so quickly!!! But October 1st means Halloween is sneaking up on us and will be here before we know it. Have you been planning those Halloween projects? I love to make treat holders and Halloween colors are so much fun. Today is a fun treat holder that is pretty quick to make and could hold a variety of treats.
I found this adorable little treat box that Karen Robinson made when I was googling the stamp set, I knew it was perfect for me. I adjusted the size to fit a little candy treat — perfect for the little Kit Kat candy bars — the single ones — not fun size.
Measurements:
* My treat box is 4 3/4″ long x 1″ wide x 3/4″ thick.
* Pumpkin Pie cardstock – 4″ x 5 1/2″ – stamp misty splotches with Memento ink
* With the 4″ side at the top of the Simply Score Tool, score at 1/2″, 1 1/4″, 2 1/4″, 3″
* Turn so 5 1/2″ is at the top — score at 3/4″
* Cut the tabs up to the 3/4″ score line
* Fold on all score lines
* Put Tear & Tape on 1/2″ flap — fold to create box
* Mini Glue Dots on the 3/4″ flaps — fold to close one end of box.
* On the opposite end, pinch box closed — punch hole to put ribbon through
* Cut 6″ of Black 5/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon — thread through hole and tie
* Scrap of Whisper White cardstock, stamp bats with Memento ink — punch out with Spooky Bat Punch
* Stamp moon with Crushed Curry — fussy cut with Paper Snips or punch out with Twinkle Builder Punch
* Stamp “no tricks just treats” with Memento — cut out using the Bottles & Bubbles Framelits
* Attach all with Mini Dimensionals
* Fill treat box with little candy, lip gloss, chapstick, etc.
