Whatever Wednesday with My Creative Time!!

Hello and Happy Halloween! Are you ready for all those trick or treaters? We live in the country so I maybe see 2 kids but that doesn't stop me from buying the candy :)

I made a cute little Halloween candy treat holder today. This is perfect when you only get a few kids at your door, although this did not take long to put together!

I used the new Gift Card Gift Box Die set for this project. This little die set is going to get a lot of use in the next couple of months and beyond!!


I used patterned paper for both the top and the bottom of the box.  Before adhering the top together, I die cut the Pumpkin Face in the centre.  I placed a bit of black cardstock behind the face to make it stand out.


For an added touch, I used the bat dies from the Open If You Dare Stamp and Die set and the "BOO" which comes from the Ghost Lollipop Holder Die.  I did add a bit of shimmer to the black areas with my Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle pen.


Now just look at all the treats this gift box holds!!  Any trick or treater would LOVE this little box!!

I hope you all have a safe and fun Halloween!!

Until next time...stay crafty!

Laurie

  29. What a great idea - kids love opening up little surprises like this. I haven't seen nerds in ages either, not as common over here as they were when I was little. And don't even tell me about left over sweets..... I am going to have to put them out of my way!! xx
