Today is day 4 of our Halloween Hustle. I hope you have gotten some ideas, and enjoyed all the projects from our DT, I never get bored playing with Miss Emma's stamps and dies...and I am sure you don't either.
Here is my treats for today.
You've seen the sour cream packets, right? Well, make your own and fill them with goodies. Cut a rectangle...any size. Make it wider than longer. You will want to use very strong adhesive for this. I use Scor Tape. Add it to one short side and both long sides. Wrap the short edge with the tape over the other and press to stick. Then, align one of the top edges and press good to stick. Now...turn the box half a turn so the next side closes the opposite of the first one. I have one of the paper crimpers for crimping paper...well, I use that to crimp just the very edge. Don't turn it in too far, you don't want to ruin the box.
So, pick some cute papers and whip up a bunch of these...so fun to make, and peeps get to just rip them open! Here are the ones I made.
For this one, I cut the ghost out of glitter paper by American Crafts. Wrapped some twine and added a sentiment.
For this one, I used the circle of the scallop circle die set. Added a sentiment, some enamel dots, and a bit of twine.
For this one, I stamped right onto the paper, added some sequins, twine, and a cute pumpkin. Aren't
they cute?!
So, here's what I used for these cute candy pouches.
So cute, and simple! Thanks for the inspiration! :)

I have never even thought of making these! You even thought to crimp the top! So cute!
ReplyDeleteThese little sour cream containers are my favorite to make. Ive even made them from a 12X12 sheet of paper and put cookies in them and decorated the outside for a cookie exchange at christmas time worked out great and will hold 6 to 9 regular size cookies.Thanks so much for sharing these cute little treasures.

Cheryl, these are absolutely, completely, stupendously ingenious! If I received one of thee, couldn't open it - way, way, way tooooo pretty! Okay, maybe just a teensy opening to get at the treats, but that's all!! Once again, you and MCT projects are quite the dynamic duo of creativity and delight!!

These are so cute, love how differently you designed each one. I adore the little silver glitter ghost. I've been hoarding my AC glitter paper, so it's nice to see someone use it in a project.
ReplyDeleteVery nicely done!
