BOO! It's October, which means Spooky Season...and of course Candy! Trick or Treat! One of my favorite crafting things to make this time of year is candy treats! It's fun to have Halloween - even as a grown up! I like to make little treats for my friends and co-workers. The new Happy Haunting Collection is so bright and colorful and playful. Pumpkins, ghosts and kitty cats! I knew I couldn't resist using the collection to decorate some treat boxes. I like to pop in lime green with orange and black for fun color contrast.
Here is my trio of treats! Two candy boxes made from a die cut and black paper and one clear box I bought at the craft store. Filled with yummy pumpkin candies and made with lots of whimsy.
I used patterned papers from the Happy Haunting 12x12 paper pack.... And elements from the Chit Chat and Odds & Ends too. I used some Sprinkles on tiny clothespins to decorate the tops and the closures.
For this one I wrapped the clear box with papers and put on that big awesome sticker from the 12x12 Sticker Sheet. Some cute purple bats to finish it off. Oh, and always some twine!
I die cut an oval in the front of this treat box and glued a piece of acetate to the inside to make a window - to see the treats! You could use a circle or even a star for this part!
I never thought I would say this - but that's one cute spider!
Thanks for having some playful fun with me today here on the Doodlebug blog! I hope your day is filled with all treats and no tricks! I'll be back in a couple of weeks to share another fun Halloween project. Until then, Happy Crafting!
