Halloween Treats - Simply Stampin' on Saturday (8-22-20)


Halloween Parcel Box for Mini Hershey Bars

Two pieces of Magic in This Night DSP 4" x 6" to die cut the parcel pieces from Perfect Parcel Dies; best to begin with a 12" x 4" piece to keep directionality the same.  Cut a label die from Halloween Magic Dies and then emboss it using the Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder.  Lightly sponge some Craft White Ink over the cobweb embossing to highlight the web.  The "Happy Halloween" is cut from Word Wishes Dies. Top off with a Black Glitter Organdy Ribbon bow.

Mini Curvy Pumpkin Box for Hershey Kisses

Use the Mini Curvy Keepsakes Box to cut two box pieces from 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" Pumpkin Pie card stock and also cut two of the oval mini tags too.  Use the pumpkin and Jack-o-lantern face from Harvest Hellos stamp set to stamp a Jack-o-lantern face on all four sides.  Stamp the sentiment "Hey There Pumpkin" on the oval label.  Punch an Old Olive sprig piece from the Sprig Punch and top off the box with the Old Olive Diagonal Stripe Ribbon and twine from Playful Pets Ribbon Combo Pack


Halloween Trident Gum Wrap Treat

Use a piece of the Magic in This Night DSP 2" x 10 1/2" and score it at 5" and 5 1/2"; this will be the main wrap-around the Trident gum pack.  Use a 2' x 5 3/4" contrasting color of DSP (I used Bumble DSP from the 2020-2022 In Color DSP pack.)  Score this piece at 1/2", 1 1/8", 3 1/8", and 3 3/4". It will be the horizontal wrap. From the Magic in This Night DSP and Basic Black, die cut the bats.  Adhere a half of the Square Vellum Piece onto the front of the wrap, and decorate the tag and belly band with the die cut bats.  The ribbon is the Polka Dot Thule.

Pampered Pets

Last Saturday and Sunday I cut out several dogs and cats from the beautiful Playful Pets Designer Series Paper.  After a while, I just laid them out and began playing around with them as the title says Playful Pets.  I used a few embossing folders(Argyle, Bricks, and Dainty Diamonds) for some of the backgrounds.  Most of the cards are simple 4 1/4" x 11  or 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" folded cards.
