Halloween Sour Cream Treat Holder

When I first started stamping 15 years ago one of the big things was making sour cream treat holders.  We made tons of these for every holiday — just 6″ x 6″ designer paper, small candy or toy treats and a little embellishment and you were done.

Every quarter we get a Stampin’ Success magazine and I couldn’t believe it when the sour cream treat holder was in there.  Well of course I had to make one to share with you.  The Toil & Trouble Designer Paper was perfect.  I chose these black piece with stars and dots and I added a tag using the Cauldron Bubble stamp set and Cauldron Framelit set to cut out the broom and frog (did you know you save 10% when you purchase a bundle).

Adorable, right!!!  Just take a 6″ x 6″ piece of designer paper, add Tear & Tape to one edge and roll paper into a loose tube (like a toilet paper roll).  Next put a piece of Tear & Tape on the inside of each end, pinch one end together, fill with treat and pinch the open end in the opposite direction — see picture).

*I stamped the broom on Soft Suede and Crushed Curry with Memento ink — cut out with framelit – cut stick off the Crushed Curry broom and attach over the Soft Suede broom.
*Frog is stamped with Memento on Granny Apple Green cardstock — cut out with framelit – attach to broom with Mini Dimensional
*Trick or Treat is stamped with Memento on Whisper White — cut out with Stitched Shapes framelit
*Stamp stars with Crushed Curry ink — cut out with Layering Circle Framelit
*Cut out scallop circle with Pumpkin Pie cardstock — attach layers to treat holder
*Tie a bow with the Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon and attach with Glue Dot

I would love to see your sour cream holders.  Post a picture on my Facebook Page — Stampwithpeggy and I’ll draw a name for a prize.

Isn’t this just the cutest!!!  Now of course if you don’t have any dogs who would like a treat I’m sure the kiddos would love this too but put some kid friendly treats in the pillow box — don’t give them doggy bones (hahaha).

Toil & Trouble Baker Boxes

I’m shooting for Halloween treats all week long — let’s see if I can do it.  I’ve said it before I love making 3-D projects and treat holders are the best.  Treat holders used to mean candy holders but as we are all trying to get healthier, a treat holder could hold almost anything and that’s part of the fun now to see what kind of goodies you can find.

Today’s treat holder features the Baker’s Boxes from the Holiday Catalog — page 49.  There are 8 — 4 1/4″ x 4 1/4″ boxes in a package for just $7.  These boxes are 2 1/8″ deep so they hold a lot of goodies.  This box was from our Stampin’ Sisters Holiday Hoopla Shoe Box Swap.  It was designed by team member, Sandi Johnson.  She filled the box with adorable specialty cookies that she had made just for the occasion.

I love Sandi’s color combo of Black, Granny Apple Green and Gorgeous Grape.  The little witch and hats were cut from the designer paper with the coordinating thinlits.  She also used the Spooky Bats Punch to add some bats to the boxes.  The Black Foil cardstock is perfect for the spider web.

Nice job Sandi — everyone loved it.
