I really like the Matchbox die. It goes great with the It’s A Wrap stamp sets. This is a great 10 minute Treat Holder!
Check out the bottom of my post. You can now Pin this post directly to Pinterest! I have chosen the picture and typed in the description (supply list) for you. I am working on getting all my posts ready to Pin. It even shows up at the bottom of the post in Google Reader! How cool is that!! Let me know which you want me to do first. Otherwise I am going from the most recent first. Please let me know if the Pin button doesn’t show up.
I have just added a Promotions Page with the 3 Stampin’ Up! Promotions for this month with links. Two of them end October 31: Buy 2 Simply Sent Card Kits and get one coordinating stamp set FREE! Join Stampin’ Up and get a Big Shot (or $100 merchandise) FREE!
Supplies:
Stamps: It’s A Wrap Holidays
Card Stock: Cajun Craze
Pumpkin Pie
Big Shot: Matchbox XL die
Other: Glue dots for candy wrappers
Hershey Nuggets
Sticky Strip
Plastic Spider Rings (I have the “el-cheapo” ones from WalMart.)
Directions:
1. Cut the Matchbox die out of Cajun Craze card stock. Assemble the bottom. I usually fold down the long sides first, then put the little diagonal corners on the short side, then fold down the short sides pushing flat. This usually holds together without any adhesive. If it doesn’t, put sticky strip along side sections next to the box bottom. Assemble top using Sticky Strip.
2. Stamp “EEK!” five times on a quarter sheet of Pumpkin Pie card stock leaving about a half inch on one end of four of them. Trim along the long edges of the four that will cover the Hershey Nuggets. Trim the ends as necessary to fit around the Hershey Nuggets. Attach the ends with a glue dot or two. (Snail isn’t strong enough.) Place in bottom of Matchbox. Cut the remaining “EEK!” close along all four sides. Attach with Dimensionals. Cut the ring part off of each spider ring with scissors. Attach with either Dimensionals or try Crystal Effects. (One of my spiders kept escaping from it’s Dimensional……) Put the top and bottom together.
3. You now have a Spidery Treat box to share with someone. Hopefully the chocolate will still be inside…… Do plastic spiders eat chocolate?
