Trick-or-Treat Skull Box

Before I share my new Halloween table setting as promised in my last post, I wanted to share this treat box I made on the Artiste cartridge. I am also entering this in Ribbon Carousel's Halloween Spirit Challenge. 

 

This cute little box was cut on the Cricut Artiste Cartridge page 79 at 5". This size is perfect for filling with mini Halloween assorted chocolates or even a couple of homemade cookies! The skull is from the Thriller stamp set and was embossed in black. The "Oct. 31st" tag is from the new Perfect Fit Halloween stamp and was tied to the top of the box with some black&white striped grosgrain ribbon and olive green twine.

 

This was a fun and simple project that could be duplicated easily for gift giving this Halloween! Please be sure to check out the Ribbon Carousel Blog for more Halloween inspiration!

RCC73 Halloween Spirit

I have Halloween Spirit, yes I do! I have the spirit, how about you? Sounds like a cheer doesn't it?! That's the challenge on Ribbon Carousel Blog this week. Show your Halloween Spirit, using ribbon of course. My ribbon of choice is the fabulous Close To My Heart Black Tulle. It's tied up on a pin clip and tucked behind a spooky black Artiste rose. A "sweet treats" label may possibly give away the contents inside this darling little gable box also cut on the Artiste cartridge. After all isn't Halloween all about the candy!

{All products are Close To My Heart and can be ordered online here.}

Speaking of Halloween candy...my cousin shared this youtube clip and I thought it was too funny not to pass along.
