When I got last month’s Paper Pumpkin, I thought there would be a very good chance that I would use the little boxes for Halloween Treats, and here are my first two to show you!
Once I purchased the Spooky Fun Stamp Set with the coordinating Designer Series Paper and matching Baker’s Twine, it all came together for me. You can purchase these products on Sept. 1st in the new Holiday Catalog.
This stamp set is so fun. Jack-O-Lanterns, bats, spiders, ghosts, witches, and tombstones ~ and I love the greetings and fonts that go with it. You can even purchase it with Halloween Scenes Edgelits Dies in a bundle and save 10% on the set.
The DSP is called Halloween Night Specialty DSP. It’s black, white, and Pumpkin Pie, with a couple of sheets with a special metallic design. The Baker’s Twine is Pumpkin Pie/Basic Black and Basic Gray/Basic Black twisted together.
Since the boxes have copper dots and flecks, I decided to stamp this “bootiful treat” stamp with Versamark ink and heat emboss it with Copper Embossing Powder. The copper and white Washi Tape comes in the Affectionately Yours Suite. I fit a couple of these Mini Twix into each box 🙂
Won’t these make fun little Halloween treats for someone? I will be creating more tags with the rest of the stamps in the set as well.
