Playful Ghosts treat box July 2024 Online Exclusives Sneak Peek

For my sneak peek of the July Online Exclusives collection, I’m sharing a project I made using Playful Ghosts and a die from the Greetings of the Season set.  When I first saw these dies, I knew I would have to make some treat boxes using them.  This is the first one I’ve made.  I love how it turned out and plan to make several more and have them ready for October so I’m not scrambling, like usual, at the last minute to get them finished. 😂 Each box will hold two fun size candy bars (I used Snickers).  You can watch the video replay of the live tutorial here.

Triangle Treat box using Hearts & Hugs

 For my final project this week using the Hearts & Hugs bundle by Stampin' Up!, I created this triangle treat box.  I cased the box template from Marisa Alvarez.  I loved how easy and unique this box is.  You can get three boxes from one 8 1/2" x 11" piece of cardstock.  Not only is it quick and easy, it's very affordable to make multiples.  I put 6 Dark Chocolate kisses in mine, but there are a lot of other small candies (or jewelry) you could put in them.  To see how I put my treat box together, you can watch the replay over on YouTube here.
