Have you noticed yet that it’s been a week of treat holders!! You should have some great ideas to get you started on those Halloween goodies. I LOVE this one. I used the Trick or Tweet stamp set — this elephant with bag wings is adorable. The Stampin’ Blends are my favorite for coloring — makes it super simple to color. The green in the Toil & Trouble Designer Paper is paired with Gorgeous Grape and Black. I have a little bag of gummy bears stapled inside the matchbook.

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.

As you are planning your Halloween treats for the kiddies don’t forget to plan for those puppies in your life. Today’s treat holder is perfect to tuck some dog bones or puppy treats in for that special pet.
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).
