REESE'S PUMPKIN TREAT BOX with SWEET SONGBIRDS stamp set - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
For my project today I decided to make a Halloween project with Sweet Songbirds stamp set.  I cut the Witch Hat off one of the Witches from Best Witches stamp set.  I made a the treat box to fit a Reese's Peanut Butter Pumpkin.  I also the Songbird Builder Punch, Stylish Shapes dies, Black & White Designs Designer Series Paper and Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper.



I started with a piece of Black & White Designs Designer Series Paper sized
7  x  7".
I scored the first side at:
1,  3 1/4,  4 1/4  and  6 1/2".
I turned the paper 1/4 turn and scored at:
1,  5  and  6".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial here.
Below is a picture of how your DSP should look after scoring, cutting and rounding the corners of the flap.


I wrapped a piece of Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper around the box sized
2 1/4  x  7 1/2".
I did not measure this piece of DSP.  I made marks at each corner and reinforced them with my Bone Folder.
I attached the DSP to the box, making sure the seam was in the front, with Liquid Glue.


I stamped the Bird, from Sweet Songbirds stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock.
I stamped the Birds Body and Wing with Daffodil Delight Ink.
I stamped the Belly with Mango Melody Ink.
I stamped the Beak with Pumpkin Pie Ink.
I stamped the Eyes with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the Bird out using the Songbird Builder Punch.


I stamped the Witch, from Best Witches stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I fussy cut out just the Hat from the image.
I colored the Witch Hat with Stampin' Blends:
Light Basic Black  -  Outside of the Hat
Dark Smokey Slate  -  Inside of the Hat
Dark Daffodil Delight  -  Buckle
Dark Pumpkin Pie  -  Hat Band
I attached the Wing and the Hat on top of the Birds head with Liquid Glue.


I cut a  2 1/8" circle from Gorgeous Grape Cardstock using the Stylish Shapes dies.
I stamped the Bird's Feet onto the middle/bottom of the circle with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I attached the Bird onto the circle with Liquid Glue.
I attached the entire piece to the front of the box with Mini Dimensionals and Dimensionals.


I stamped the sentiment, from Best Witches stramp set, onto Daffodil Delight Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the sentiment out by hand and separated the words.
I attached the words to the lower right side of the box with Mini Dimensionals.
I tied a small bow out of Black & White Gingham Ribbon and attached it to the upper right side of the box with 2 Glue Dots and Liquid Glue on the not.
For the final touch I added 3 Daffodil Delight Glossy Dots to the box.
