Hello there! Lorrie here with a quick and easy Halloween Treat Box
using your Halloween papers, some handmade embellishments and, of
course, Deco Foils! I've included a fun printable below for you to make
the matching tag and the center of the rosette.
First thing you need to do, is turn on your laminator. You will want it to preheat for at least 15 plus minutes.
I
started with this fun Gable Box. You can pick one up almost anywhere,
or even cut one with your digital cutter. Next, cut Halloween papers in
corresponding sizes to fit the box and adhere with the Thermoweb
Adhesive Runner.
Next, assemble the Rosette. Cut 2 pieces of
1-1/2" x 12" pattern paper . Score each strip at every 1/2" and fold.
Using a hot glue gun adhere the two pieces end to end, and then again to
form a circle.
Next,
cut a 1" circle from some scrap paper. Gather the accordian folded
ring into the center and lay flat to form a rosette. Apply a small dab
of hot glue in the center of the top, hold for a few seconds. Next flip
over the rosette and apply hot glue to the 1" circle and attach to the
rosette.
Using Thermoweb Large Zots adhere the rosette to the box.
Time
to print this fun printable. Click on the picture to download. Make
sure you print with a laser printer and/or copier. Your local office
supply can do this for you if you don't have one.
For extra fun, print it on pattern paper!
Cut
out the shapes. Arrange shapes on the Deco Foil. I like to make my
sandwich with the Deco Foil pretty side down, then apply my shapes face
down on top of the foil, this way I can make sure everything is covered
and not overlapping. Run the sandwich though your preheated laminator.
Lift off the Deco Foil and look at the pretty tags!
Attach
the tag with a pretty coordinating ribbon and the center of the rosette
using Thermoweb large Zots. If you don't have a button maker, you can
use the Epiphany Crafts Round 25 Tool, or even just leave it as is.
Don't forget to fill the box with Treats! You don't really want a "trick", do you?
Happy Halloween!
