Saturday Blog Hop: Halloween Magic

Hello! Thanks for joining us on our Create with Stamping Friends Saturday Blog Hop! Fall is moving along and for the next 2 weeks we'll be sharing some fun Halloween project ideas with you. This week our theme was 'Halloween Magic'. I don't tend to give out Halloween cards, so I thought that it would be fun to make something that you could fit a treat inside! Special packaging for a chocolate bar? Yes please!🍫

Materials Used

I was so excited to see the cute Halloween products in the Scrapbooking Brochure and that is what I featured today:

• Paper: Halloween Spells DSP (Item 166493)

• Colour Combo: Black, White, Granny Apple Green, Pumpkin Pie & Gorgeous Grape

• Stamp Set: Something Fancy (Item 160416)

  
  

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Box Base:

   1. Cut Basic Black cardstock to 4" x 6 1/2".

   2. On the short side, score 1/2" down both the left and right sides.

   3. On the long side, score at 3" and 3 1/2".

   4. Burnish your folds, cut to make your flaps and fold up your little box with the top open to put your goodies in.

2. Wrap:

   1. Cut DSP to 2 3/4" x 9".

   2. Score at 4 1/4" and 4 3/4".

   3. Put a little adhesive on the bottom and each side (leaving the top free) and secure to the box base.

   4. Punch a hole in top and tie together with ribbon. (I used 16" of Peach Pie Bordered Ribbon)

3. Sentiment:

   1. Create a background for the sentiment with any circle shape. I used the 'Round We Go' Dies to create this scalloped circle and added it on the box with dimensionals.

   2. Cut a banner piece (3" x 3/4") from coordinating DSP. Add on with dimensionals.

   3. Heat emboss sentiment in white on Gorgeous Grape cardstock and fussy cut to size. (Isn't this sentiment perfect for a "Magic" theme?!)

   4. Add any embellishments, like these cute little pumpkins from the 'More Than Autumn' Bundle and the black Sparkle Gems.

Tuck in a couple of your favourite chocolate bars and give to a friend!
