MORE HALLOWEEN TREAT BOXES:

Hello there! I had so many other fun ideas pop into my head when I made the Bat Treat Box yesterday, that I had to create some more! I came up with 5 more sweet little creations for your little ghosts & goblins:) These are all made with the Acetate Card Boxes that I cut in half. They all feature the PRODUCT OF THE WEEK-the Playful Pennant Framelits and the DEAL OF THE WEEK-the GLITTER ENAMEL DOTS.

Each box is made with 2 strips of cardstock measuring 3/4" x 11". I wrapped them around the top & bottom of the box & adhered them with Glue Dots. Witchy-Poo is made with Granny Apple Green Cardstock. I added a hat made from Basic Black Cardstock using a leftover scrap. I added the fun rickrack trim to her hat that I shared how to make this morning on my Tuesday Tip video. You can see it on my SU!P FRIENDS Facebook group page. I simply cut off one of the pennants for her nose and used the 1/2" Circle Punch for her warts. The sentiment is stamped with Gorgeous Grape ink & punched out with a 1" Circle Punch. I trimmed off the adhesive strip at the top of a Clear Medium Envelope, filled it with a treat and tied it with a piece of Gorgeous Grape Mini Striped Ribbon.

Jack is made with Pumpkin Pie Cardstock. I used Basic Black Cardstock for his teeth, nose & pupils. I used Whisper White for the sentiment and eyes. I used the 1 1/2", 1 1/4" & 1/2" Circle Punches for the eyes. The sentiment for all of these boxes came from Trick or Tweet and I used Memento Black ink. I used Bermuda Bay Mini Striped Ribbon.

Owl is made with Grey Granite & Pumpkin Pie Cardstock. The nose is made with Petal Pink Cardstock, again just cut out from the pennants. I used Memento Black for the sentiment and cut it from Whisper White Cardstock using a 1" Circle Punch.

Mummy Dearest is made with strips of Whisper White Cardstock. I added a couple strips on top that I aged with a Sponge Dauber in Soft Suede ink. I used Poppy Parade Mini Striped Ribbon.

Frank is made with Bermuda Bay Cardstock strips. His hair is made from Early Espresso Cardstock and his neck bolts are made from Grey Granite. Agoin, I simply trimmed a couple scallops from the pennant piece and attached them to the back with Liquid Tombow. I used Bermuda Bay Mini Striped Ribbon.

And here's the original Batty from yesterday. I also used the Cauldron Framelits for his wings. You can see yesterdays post and video on SU!P FRIENDS! to see how I made them. I used Poppy Parade Mini Striped Ribbon.
