Hi Friends!
I have another Halloween project today! It is a Pumpkin fold over treat box that measures 2 1/4 x 2 1/4 x 3/4". I used Clever Cats stamp set, Frightfully Cute stamp set, Frightful Tags dies, Layering Circle dies, Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper, Cute Stars Adhesive Backed Sequins and Glittered Organdy Ribbon. You can fit 2 fun sized candy bars or 1 Reese's Peanut Butter Cup inside the box.
I started with a piece of Pumpkin Pie Cardstock sized
9 3/4 x 4 1/4".
I scored the 9 3/4" side at:
2 3/4, 3 1/2, 6 1/4 and 7".
I scored the 4 1/4" side at:
3/4 and 3 1/2".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
Below is a picture of what your Cardstock should look like after scoring, cutting and rounding the corners of the flap with the Detail Trio Punch.
I attached 7 pieces of Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper to the box.
(2) 2 1/2 x 2 1/2" of pattern 1 for the flap and body of the box.
(1) 2 1/2 x 2 1/2" of pattern 2 for inside of the flap.
(4) 2 1/2 x 1/2" of pattern 1 for the sides.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.
I stamped the pumpkin and witch hat from Clever Cats stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock.
I stamped the outline of the pumpkin with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I stamped the inside of the pumpkin with Pumpkin Pie Ink.
I colored the edges of the pumpkin with a Light Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blend.
I stamped the witch hat with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I colored in the buckle with a Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blend.
I fussy cut the pumpkin and hat out by hand.
I stamped the sentiment from Frightfully Cute stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock with Pumpkin Pie Ink.
I cut the sentiment out with the circle die from the Frightful Tags die.
I attached the sentiment to the inside flap of the box with Liquid Glue.
I attached some Adhesive Velcro Dots to the inside of the box for the closure.
I cut a circle from the Cute Halloween DSP and a scallop circle from Basic Black Cardstock using the Layering Circle dies. I attached them together with Liquid Glue.
I attached the pumpkin to the circles with Dimensionals.
I attached the witch hat to the top of the pumpkin with a Dimensional and a little Liquid Glue at the bottom.
I tied some Glittered Organdy Ribbon around the top of the box and tied a bow at the top.
I added some Wink of Stella Glitter to the hat and for the final touch I added 3 Cute Stars Adhesive Backed Sequins to the right of the pumpkin.
