SKELETON TREAT BOX from SCRAPS with CUTEST HALLOWEEN - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
My project today is a 2 1/4  x  3  x  1 1/4" treat box for Halloween.  I made this box entirely out of scraps I saved.  I used Cutest Halloween stamp set, Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper, Stockings dies, Time of Giving stamp set and the Layering Circle dies.



I started with a piece of Highland Heather Cardstock sized
7 1/2  x  4 1/4".
I scored the  7 1/2" side at:
1/2,  2 3/4,  4  and  6 1/4".
I scored the 4 1/4" side3 at:
1 1/4"
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 and cutting.


I attached 2 pieces of Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper to the box.
(1)  2  x  2 3/4" for the front
(1)  2  x  1" for the bottom of the back.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.
I cut a tag from Pumpkin Pie Cardstock using the tag die from Stockings dies.
I scored the tag with the bottom to the left at  2 1/2".
I embossed the tag with the Dots Embossing Folder.
I glued the bottom of the tag to the back of the box with Liquid Glue, leaving the top of the tag for the front flap of the box.


I cut a scalloped circle from Black Glitter Paper and a 1 5/8" smooth circle from Highland Heather Cardstock using the Layering Circle dies.
I embossed the Highland Heather circle with the Dots Embossing Folder.
I attached the Highland Heather circle on top of the Black Glitter Scalloped Circle with Liquid Glue.
I attached the entire piece to the front flap of the box with Liquid Glue also.


I stamped the outline of the skull from Cutest Halloween stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I stamped the face inside the outline with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I fussy cut the image by hand and attached it to the circles on the flap with Dimensionals.


I stamped the sentiment from Time of Giving stamp set onto Pumpkin Pie Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the sentiment out by hand and attached It to the box with Liquid Glue.
I tied Glittered Organdy ribbon around the flap of the box and tied a bow at the top.
For the final touch I added Wink of Stella Glitter to the face of the skull.
