Oh my, this has got to be my new favorite treat box. Easy to make. Can make two from one piece of 8 1/2″ x 11 piece Cardstock. Uses minimal Designer Series Paper. And no extra cutting to make this box, just score and fold….(and add adhesive!). And you know how I love pocket cards, so this was a fun project because I like to think of this as a Pocket Box!
But of course, a treat box looks better with actual treats! You can fit 2-3 small snack size candy bars (or two small packages of fun fruits for a little healthier option) into the front pocket.
I used the Cutest Halloween Stamp Set and the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper to make my treat holders, For this box, the Stamp Set does not have matching images, so I just fussy cut the little vampire bats and then adhered them with dimensionals.
If you want to write a little note, the back of the box is the perfect place! I stamped a sentiment on mine and then added a few more of the fussy cut images from the Designer Series Paper. I know Basic Gray and Polished Pink might not be traditional Halloween colors, but I just couldn’t resist as I love this color combination.
I also made this same Treat box with a different sheet of the 6″ x 6″ Cute Halloween Paper….the skulls! I paired this paper with Highland Heather and Basic Black Cardstock. I added a few sparkly gems to both the boxes using the 2021-2023 In Color Jewels along with a little shiny sparkly Highland Heather Grossgrain ribbon.
I had a bit of a challenge tying the bow for this one in the video, but I eventually got it. I am usually very good with bows….maybe I should have just tied it in a square knot like I did the first box!
I just love the expressions on the faces of those little guys, s I don’t you just love the way the one little skull looks like it is peeking out over the sentiment?
And the fussy cut one looks like it is actually saying the word boo! Just like the first box I showed, you, I also put a spot to write a note on the back of this one too.
