Halloween Treat - Quick and Easy
September 25, 2015
Here are the instructions--
1. Cut 2 pieces from your favorite sheet of Happy Haunting Designer Series Paper using the Square Pillow Box framelit (part of the bundle with the A Little Something Stamp Set---save 15% when you buy them together---see below).
2. Before you assemble the pillow box, fold down one piece approximately 1 1/4"from the top of the piece--trim off any excess seams with your paper snips. Now assemble the pillow box as usual using multipurpose glue (or Tear & Tape #138995). Note: if you interlock the flaps instead of just folding one over the other, any treats you put inside will stay snuggly in and not fall out.
3. Tie a piece of black satin ribbon around the pillow box which will hold the flap you folded down in place.
4. Stamp "A little something for you"(A Little something stamp set) in Versamark on Very Vanilla cardstock-sprinkle with gold embossing powder, heat with heat tool until bright shiny gold. Punch out with 1 3/8"circle punch (#119860).
5. Punch the gold glimmer paper with the Bracket Label punch. Adhere the stamped circle to this with glue dots. Punch a 1/8"hole in the top of the glimmer paper and tie around the black satin ribbon with 9" gold cording.
6. Punch the acorn from kraft corrugated cardstock with the Acorn Builder punch. Punch the acorn cap from the orange sheet of Happy Hauntings designer paper and adhere the cap to the top of the corrugated acorn with multipurpose glue. Attach the acorn to the box flap using a glue dot!
You are done! Enjoy
