I made some Halloween cards this year using up scraps of older Halloween designer paper that I've had for eons. I just cut them randomly and adhered them to card bases and added a big die-cut candy corn to the top. I used an older retired SU! sentiment and coordinating punch combo to make the greeting. I added a green gel sticker accent just for fun.
Here's how I decorated the inside of the card....
I used another random strip of dsp along with a couple die cuts and a Tim Holtz Happy Halloween sentiment. The smaller sentiment is a pre-printed one from Simon Says Stamp. I used a Fluorescent Copic green marker to color the cauldron and a yellow glaze pen to color the eyes and nose of the skull.
Here are a couple more treat boxes I made using assorted die-cuts, papers and stamped sentiments. They each hold 2 mini Kit Kat bars
These 2 treat boxes hold candy corn which is why I added the stamped, fussy cut candy corn images by Lawn Fawn and then tied them up with orange ribbon. These boxes were made with a SU! Scalloped Top Tag punch and were made with some older retired SU! papers.
I still have more treats for Halloween that I'll share soon, but for now, I'm entering the card into these challenges:
The Little Red Wagon Challenge #728 - Trick or Treat
That's going to be it for me this Wednesday, so have a good day and thanks for stopping by.
