Thanks for stopping by today - it is Fabulous Friday over on the Sisters in Stamping blog and this week I chose Halloween candy treats as the theme for our projects. Who couldn't use a great idea for packaging Halloween treats in a fun way, right?! And with Halloween right around the corner these are super-easy to put together in a jiffy.
My project this week uses my all-time favorite Big Shot die - the Top Note. I used it to create the packaging around two Hershey nuggets. I used the Frightful Sight DSP for both and pulled my colors from it... basic black, whisper white, old olive, cajun craze and basic gray. The "spooky" sentiment and background spider web image are from the Wicked Cool stamp set... one of my favorite Hallween sets. Do you recognize the punch used for the ghost - it's the owl turned upside down with the feet trimmed off... cute, huh?! The eyes in basic black are also from that same punch and the large oval and scallop oval punches complete the embellishment for both.
Here is what the inside of the treat holders look like - I used scraps of DSP from the Frightful Sight pack to wrap around the nuggets. They are held onto the Top Note die with mini glue dots. I used my Simply Scored scoring tool to quickly add the score lines (score at 1-3/4" and 3" when the center point is at 2-3/8") to my Top Note diecuts after covering them with the DSP and punched holes for the ribbon using my trusty Crop-a-Dile.
Thanks for stopping by! Please be sure and hop on over to the Sisters in Stamping blog after Noon EST today for more "tricks" for packaging your Halloween treats!
Have a great weekend!
