Today is the day! It’s Halloween! I pulled out a bunch of Halloween projects I have saved from past years. Some I use for decorations in my house! Some I keep for future ideas!
If you are going trick-or-treating tonight or having them come to your house, be safe and be careful.
Don’t forget to change your clocks back to Standard Time tonight before you go to bed (or in the morning!). It’s Fall Back time! We get an extra hour of sleep!
I think one fun treat project is to cover candy bars with designer paper or cardstock and then decorate. It doesn’t matter if you have Halloween paper or not, you probably have something that will work. If not, stamp some cardstock.
It’s so fun to use the Mini Curvy Keepsakes Box Die to make all kinds of treat box characters, like this Jack-o-Lantern and Frankenstein. You’ll find all kinds of examples on the internet for ideas!
I continue to say having these Clear Tiny Treat Boxes on hand makes it so easy when you want to make a little treat, gift box, or party favor. Just decorate in any number of ways, with designer paper, ribbon, stamping, whatever you like for the occasion.
If you want to make a special, but easy, treat wrapper for Halloween, just cut a strip of cardstock and score for the bottom to fit the candy and decorate the front with a funny Halloween character or design!
If you want to make Halloween cards but don’t have Halloween paper, make your own “designer paper” by stamping all over. Start with the largest stamp as you stamp randomly around on your paper, then progress through the smaller stamps you are using to fill in the space. It’s really fun! The Cat Punch makes this card so easy!
I’ve always thought these Triangle Treat Boxes were so easy to make and turn into a great treat box. You can vary the size easily. Just follow the directions in this post, linked in the title. Once you make one, you will have it down!
One of my favorite things of all in stamping is making ghosts out of hearts cut in half! You’ve got to try it!! Here’s an easy card with ghosts and some fun Halloween paper in the background. But you could also just use Basic Black maybe with a few “Boos” written in the background or embossed.
I hope these past Halloween ideas have gotten your creativity going if you are making some last-minute Halloween projects! I hate to see Halloween come to an end because it’s so much fun to make Halloween projects and cards!
I still have pieces from my September Paper Pumpkin Kit so I used stamps and pieces to make this Paper Pumpkin Halloween Card & Tag. I actually started with the tag because I have this Halloween sweater tree I bought from someone on Instagram and I thought it would be fun to hang a tag on it for Halloween.
And after I made the tag, I thought I should copy myself and make a Halloween card as long as I had extra pieces I had die cut and everything still out on the table!
I used a lot of varied things! To start with, I used the Stitched So Sweetly Dies for the Pumpkin Pie and Basic Black pieces to make the tag and then the focal point on the card. The pumpkin on the tag is stamped with the stamp set in the Paper Pumpkin Kit and then colored with Stampin’ Blends. The greeting is from the Paper Pumpkin stamp set also and stamped on Granny Apple Green, then die cut with a die in the Tasteful Labels Dies. For some tiny little stems of leaves in various colors, I used the dies in theForever Flourishing Dies. And I found some tiny little flowers in the Budding Blooms Dies. Sometimes you should just look through all your dies and see what you can use! It doesn’t always have to be in a coordinating set. I added a Gilded Gem on top of each flower on the tag. The ribbon on the tag is the beautiful Black 3/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon.
The Halloween card is very similar. The card base is Cajun Craze with a layer of Pumpkin Pie. To get the wood background, I used a pattern in the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper. This large pack of designer paper is on sale in the Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper Sale until October 31 so don’t miss it! Instead of the stamped pumpkin, I used one of the pumpkin diecuts in the September Paper Pumpkin Kit, as well as a couple swirly vines plus some colored stems I already die-cut like on the tag. For a couple of embellishments I used two of the Gold Glitter Enamel Dots and tied a bow with the Black Glittered Ribbon.
Here is a photo of what I did with the tag! I bought this sweater tree from @thelittlegreenbean on Instagram, also the two little embroidered mushrooms on the right. After Halloween, I could make a fall or Thanksgiving tag to hang on the tree. (If you recognize the Witches Candy Shoppe sign in the background, that was some designer paper from several years ago that was perfect for framing for home decor!
I think with all the shiny new products, which are great, we have forgotten about products we already have which are perfect for this upcoming holiday season, fall, and Halloween like this Mini Curvy Keepsake Box Halloween Witch. You can make all kinds of little gift boxes and even characters using this Mini Curvy Keepsakes Box Dies. So much opportunity for creativity!
This little Mini Curvy Keepsake Box is so easy to make, no matter what else you are going to do to it! Just die cut the one piece and fold on the score lines. Your box will come together quite well! After scoring and creasing the fold lines, it might be good to kind of press down on the sides to kind of get that curve going a little bit. Then hold the two handles together and slip the two sides with slots right over the handles. Then decorate the box however you like.
For the Halloween witch, I used a piece of Granny Apple Green Cardstock. I assembled the box and then added the witch features. I had a bag of googlie eyes so I opted to use two of those. You could just use circles of black and white cardstock. The witch’s nose is from the 1/2″ Circle Punch (retired, sadly) but if you don’t have the punch you can just cut one by hand or find a punch in your stash that will work. I had some black dots so I put one on her nose for a wart! I just drew in the mouth and freckles with the Basic Black Stampin’ Blend using the tip end, not the brush end.
For the hair, I just grabbed some twine I had, thinking it was Linen Thread but I think it was some natural colored twine I had from something. I just cut a few strands, tied them together in the middle with another piece and adhered them to the witch’s head! You could do cardstock strips, yarn, shredded paper, other ribbon or string you have.
The witch’s hat I sort of copied from one I’d seen on Pinterest or somewhere. You could use the old Tree Punch we used to have but I used the Pine Tree Punch which is current. I punched out two trees. I didn’t want the shaggy edges that make it look like a tree so I just cut along the two sides and cut those edges off so that I had a perfect triangle. I used Black Glimmer Paper because I had some scraps which the punch fit, but not the hat base. For that, I just happened to find this large scalloped circle already cut out and just went with that. Cut a slit in the center of the hat base in which you will insert the triangle top of the hat. I took the two trees and adhered them together with Glue Dots near the top. You want to keep most of the bottom open so you can slide it over the box handles. Then fold the tree trunk up facing the tree, on each side, and use Mini Glue Dots to adhere those trunks to the hat base after inserting through that slit. That way the tree is attached to the hat base but it can still be placed over the box handles.
For a little embellishment, I tied on a Terracotta Tile ribbon and stuck on a little plastic Halloween blackbird sticker I had in my stash. You can just barely see it against the black witch’s hat.
That’s all there is to it! You could make a ghost out of white paper, a scarecrow, Frankenstein, some other monster, or a pumpkin! All with this one die and that’s just for Halloween! Have fun playing with the Mini Curvy Keepsake Die and see what you can make with it!
These Paper Pumpkin Halloween Treat Holders aren’t finished yet, but I thought I would show you how cute they are! Actually, they ARE finished, I just would have to put treats inside and then tie a piece of twine around the other end of the treat holder and it’s done!
This is the September 2020 “Hello Pumpkin” Paper Pumpkin kit! Paper Pumpkin is a monthly subscription for a papercrafting kit to be mailed to you around the middle of each month. There is no risk or obligation and you can skip a month if you need to!
Rather than make all the treat holders I could possibly make with this kit when I don’t know if I will have any trick-or-treaters this year, I made these and I’m going to make “alternate” projects with the rest of the supplies! And that’s perfectly okay with any of the kits! Every month there are alternate ideas posted online that you can get inspired by if you prefer to make something different with your kit. I plan to make Halloween cards with these supplies Or maybe I will make cards and a few more treat holders and save them for next year when we won’t have the pandemic and kids can trick-or-treat again safely.
October 10th is the last day this month to get signed up in order to get the NEXT Paper Pumpkin kit, which will be mailed out mid-October. It is a holiday kit which you can read all about HERE.
It’s time to be making Halloween treats and cards, whatever you like! Maybe some Halloween home decor!
Check out the Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper Sale going on now in the Online Store! In there you will find the Magic In This Night Designer Paper which is perfect for Halloween! Not that you have to have official Halloween paper! If you look through your other papers you may find other patterns that you can use for fall and Halloween.
Something fun to make for Halloween is a witch’s boot out of a toilet paper roll or a paper towel roll. You can use it for a decoration in your house or you can put candy treats inside the roll or into a narrow cello bag, tie with a ribbon at the top, and put it into the boot. These are actually easy to make – just wrap the paper around the tube and add a triangle cardstock piece at the bottom for the boot.
Since I had an empty paper towel roll, I decided to make a pair of boots this year! I cut the roll in half so I could have two boots. Then I chose the Artistry Blooms Designer Series Paper to use for the stocking. Really you could use almost any of the papers in that package, especially if you wanted your witch to have some crazy stockings! But I chose this green ombre print paper pattern which definitely looked like Halloween. Just cut a piece of paper that will it the length of your roll and long enough to go all the way around the roll.
For the boot piece, cut a piece of Basic Black Cardstock to go around the bottom of the roll that just meets and then fold back the edges to look like the collar of the top of the boot. It will be just as tall as you want the boot to look, maybe about an inch high or so. For the base of the boot, just cut a triangle-shaped piece. The wide back end should be wide enough for the paper roll to fit on it. From there it tapers down to a point that you can roll back a little for the toe of the boot. I used Multipurpose Liquid Glue on the very bottom of the paper towel roll to adhere to that triangle piece.
If you want a boot buckle, just cut a piece that will fit in the space and then cut a smaller piece of black to adhere to the center to make it look like a buckle, but you don’t have to cut out the center of the buckle. It’s a “faux buckle”! I used Gold Foil for the buckle, but you can get creative and use any color you like.
Just for fun I added three rows of lace to the top of the witch’s stocking using the Very Vanilla 3/8″ Scalloped Lace Trim. I just used Mini Glue Dots to hold the lace in the back.
Click HERE to see the witch’s boot I made last year in 2019 and HERE to see one from 2018. Here’s one from 2014! See how fun and easy they are to make!
Use your imagination when you get a toilet paper roll or paper towel roll that you can use and make up your own Witch’s Boot for Halloween!
For some fun and relaxation, I took the afternoon and spent time making the kit I recently ordered that I couldn’t wait to get my hands on and made these Tag Buffet Christmas Gift Tags! You will find this Tag Buffet Project Kit in the Holiday Catalog on page 5. I immediately loved the images for the tags and couldn’t wait to order it! Then I forgot to order it over two orders and finally, I got it!
The project kit comes in a cute green holly print box. As long as you have a cute box, that’s almost all you need, right?! If you want, you can order the coordinating Tag Buffet Stamp Set to stamp the greetings on the tags. But if you already have a good selection of Christmas greeting stamp sets, you might have something you can use without buying a new stamp set. But I do love the ornament and stocking in this stamp set, plus the verse that you could stamp inside the card. I plan to make some extra Christmas cards and maybe more tags using this stamp set.
You get all the materials you need to make the tags, but you do need your own ink pads and Stampin’ Dimensionals. The coordinating ink colors are Real Red, Shaded Spruce, and Garden Green. The only stamping is for the greeting so really, you could get buy with any one of those colors or two if you wanted a red and green. I did use a lot of Dimensionals but I did use up some scrap edges of old sheets because no one will see them anyway! And if you don’t want to pop things up, you could just use glue or Stampin’ Seal or Stampin’ Seal+.
And if you want to, you don’t have to follow the directions at all, just do your own thing with the kit supplies. This would be a great kit for a beginning or novice stamper or crafter because all you have to do is stamp the greetings and then assemble the tags and tie them together with the included gold twine.
Since they are gift tags, I stamped the “To: From:” on the back of each of the tags before I put them together. The tags are large so if you also want to add a personal message on the back of the tag or stamp some other image, there is plenty of room! They are really nice tags!
Another thing you could do, is make the tags and then use them as a focal point on the front of a Christmas card. And what would be really fun is if you used just enough adhesive to hold it on the card but that the recipient could take off and use themselves or hang on the tree like an ornament. When I was growing up, my mother knew some people who were very rich and their Christmas card was always the fanciest one, but part of it was actually an ornament to save and use! We always looked forward to that one!
Don’t miss the Tag Buffet Project Kit in the August-December 2020 Holiday Mini Catalog on page 5! You might miss it as you rush to page through the beautiful catalog! The kit makes 30 tags!! That is 6 different designs, 5 tags each! The tags are 3 1/4″ x 4 1/4″ so that is a nice size. Your present will really stand out with these beautiful handmade tags!
If you want a little autumn treat for someone or maybe for Thanksgiving dinner favors, this little Gilded Autumn 2-4-6-8 Fall Treat Bag would meet your needs! These little 2-4-6-8 bags, as we like to call them, are really easy to make out of cardstock or designer paper and then you can decorate them for any occasion. You can make them taller too with a larger piece of paper.
For this treat bag, you just need half a sheet of paper, 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ if using cardstock or cut designer paper to this size. I used the prettyGilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper with gold and copper foil accents, which makes it extra special. If you want a taller bag, then cut it more than 5 1/2″.
Score at 2″, 4″, 6″ and 8″. Turn and score at 1 1/2″ (or 2″). These will be the bottom flaps so pay attention to the pattern on your paper, watching which way it is going so it doesn’t end up upside down. Cut the bottom flaps up to the score line. Cut off that very small 1/2″ piece on the end. See the photo below. (This isn’t the paper I used, and it is taller, but you can get the scoring and cutting idea.)
Assemble the box, putting adhesive on that 1/2″ piece on the side. Then pay attention to where the seam is and try to have that face the back. Fold in the bottom flaps, trying to make the front of the bag look nice with a flap fold, not the edge.
Now all you have to do is decorate the front of the bag. You can even leave it open at the top if you prefer or if you want to put maybe a cello bag of treats inside. But if you want to close the top, just pinch in the sides of the bag and push the top together. Punch holes for ribbon or add a clip of some kind to keep it closed. Be sure to put the treat in first!
For this little Gilded Autumn bag, I die cut a piece of Gold Foil using the Tasteful Labels Dies. Out of the designer paper with pumpkins and gourds all over it, I cut out a pumpkin, a gourd, and a teeny tiny pumpkin! I love that paper! I adhered the large pumpkin and gourd onto the Gold Foil circle with Stampin’ Seal+. After stamping and cutting out the greeting, from the Itty Bitty Greetings Stamp Set, I adhered that at the bottom of the pumpkin and gourd, then popped up the tiny pumpkin with a Mini Dimensional just at the very top so that it would partially layer over the greeting.
To finish off the treat bag, I used my old Cropodile to punch two small holes in the top of the bag and I tied a piece of Braided Linen Trim at the top. You could use some other ribbon as well.
This 2-4-6-8 pattern is so versatile and so easy to make! Try it for whatever occasion you want. Halloween is coming up so that would be fun!
Just the box alone signals that there is something really good inside! I always like a cute box! Inside this cute Christmas box are all the supplies you need to make Christmas Tags with the Tag Buffet Kit.
Just open the box and see all the wonderful supplies inside!
Make thirty Christmas tags, 5 each of 5 designs with this Tag Buffet Project Kit. You will love all the included pieces!
These are beautiful images with a watercolor look and beautiful tags to use! Stamp on greetings with the Tag Buffet Stamp Set! You can use another stamp set with Christmas greetings if you have one, but I always like to get the one that matches! Then you can use the greetings on other Christmas card projects.
The Tag Buffet Project Kit looks like a gorgeous kit to make it easy to sit down and have a productive crafting time! Just assemble the pieces as directed, or change it up to make your own tags. And who doesn’t need more tags when it is time to wrap gifts?! Save yourself a trip to the store at the last minute as you wrap gifts and make some special tags soon! If you want this tag kit, order it soon so it doesn’t go on backorder just when you wanted to get it! Make some quality Christmas tags for some special gifts!

Here’s a technique you can try if you want to make a Halloween treat box like this Halloween Mini Pizza Box Colored Embossing treat box. It’s a fun way to color the greeting on the box to make it look a little more interesting or spookier for Halloween!
The technique involved is easy. You can use it for greetings or other images. Just emboss with Versamark Ink and White Stampin’ Emboss Powder the way you normally would, using your Heat Tool to melt the powder.
After embossing, let cool for a second and then color right over the white embossed areas with Stampin’ Blends markers. Try not to get off the embossing or it will show on the paper, even black. If you do get some marker ink on the paper, use the Color Lifter to “move” the color back over very lightly. For this Halloween project, I used multiple colors on the Halloween sentiment.
I had a similar project on my recent newsletter, so if you would like to get ideas like this and more delivered every Tuesday to your Inbox, just sign up for my Mailing List in the red box in the right sidebar or scroll all the way down on your phone to get to it.
This project is made with the Mini Pizza Box. These are handy to have on hand. They are unassembled and store flat. You get 8 food-safe boxes, 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ in size. You can easily put the box together, the decorate for whatever occasion. Put some cookies inside, 3″ x 3″ notecards, or some other small gift or treat.
For this box, I stamped a piece of Pumpkin Pie Cardstock for the lid with images from the Ghoulish Goodies Stamp Set. Around the sides of the box, I used pieces of the Plaid Tidings Designer Paper. Since the paper is only 6″ wide, I cut four individual strips of paper. I was even fastidious enough to match the plaid lines before cutting, but you wouldn’t have to be so perfect.
The embossed sentiment is cut out with one of the Tasteful Labels Dies. For a little layer behind the sentiment I die cut another shape from the same dies and cut it in half so a little bit would show under the side of the sentiment. Before adhering the Pumpkin Pie paper to the top of the box, I adhered ends of the Black 3/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon to the underside and popped up the greeting with Dimensionals. Then I tied on a little knot on each side of the greeting with the ribbon. Love this Glittered Ribbon! For a little bling, I added three Holiday Rhinestones that I thought kind of matched the Halloween colors.
Who knows what kind of treats we will be able to give out this Halloween or if there will be trick-or-treating or Halloween parties, but these Mini Pizza Boxes are one of those good things to always have in your stash for when the need arises when you want to give a little treat or gift. Or order more if you have a certain occasion or gathering.
Here is another example of how to use these Mini Pizza Boxes for just a gift, not necessarily a certain occasion. I used the Peaceful Poppies Designer Series Paper (retired) to decorate this box and the Poppy Moments Dies.
These Mini Pizza Boxes are fun to decorate for many occasions. Try this fun technique of heat embossing white powder and then coloring with Stampin’ Blends markers right over the embossing to make this fun project, Halloween Mini Pizza Box Colored Embossing.

Let’s stay connected and in touch with each other over our favorite thing to talk about…..stamping with Stampin’ Up!
One of my favorite extra products in the Stampin’ Up! Catalog besides stamps, paper, and ink, are the Clear Tiny Treat Boxes which can be decorated like this Clear Tiny Treat Box With Sunflower. Put a candy treat inside or a small gift and you are good to go! Just keep a package of these treat boxes in your stash for any occasion that arises.
The stamped sunflower is the smaller one in the Celebrate Sunflowers Stamp Set. This is the technique I used to stamp and color this sunflower:
Use Stampin’ Write Markers to color directly on the stamp in the different colors, huff on the stamp, then stamp on Whisper White Cardstock.
Use a Blender Pen to pick up ink from the ink pad lids of whatever colors you choose to lightly color in the white space on the stamped flower. Although I used a Crushed Curry marker to color on the stamp, I used So Saffron Ink with my Blender Pen to fill in the flower petals. I used a Granny Apple Green marker for the leaves but colored in with Mint Macaron.
The flower center didn’t look good filled in with Soft Suede so I went back with Cajun Craze lightly to match the markers. When it looked too solid or something, I used the small tip of the marker to fill in a lot of tiny dots around that center.
The very center has some yellow and a tiny bit of green.
Blender pens are good to use because you tend to get a lighter color using them but you can pick up more ink and get a darker shade. We used to use Blender Pens all the time, back in the “olden days” when I first became a Demonstrator. You can pick up ink from the ink pad or lid with them, pick up ink directly from the marker tip, blend Watercolor Pencil colors or even pick up color directly from the Watercolor Pencil tip. They are so handy and versatile. Just enough moisture to work but not enough to pill the cardstock, unless you work it too much. In that case, Shimmery White Cardstock is better than Whisper White.
After putting your treat or gift inside, you could tie the ribbon around from the bottom to the top instead or just add a bow to the lid of the box. You could stamp a little tag to add as well.
There are so many things you can do with these Clear Tiny Treat Boxes! They are handy for so many occasions! Here is a favorite one I made at Easter.
Here is a close-up of the sunflower so you can see the coloring. You could also stamp in Memento Black ink and color with Stampin’ Blends. Or use Watercolor Pencils.
Think about getting a package of these Clear Tiny Treat Boxes and also check out the other types of boxes and bags Stampin’ Up! carries for treats and gifts! There are many options!
Remember it is Bonus Days for another two weeks in July! With every $50 purchase, you will receive an email with a coupon code for $5 to use in August on your orders. No limits, so if you have a large order, you will have more coupons to use! And with the new Stampin’ Up! Catalog, a large order is pretty easy to come up with! Way too easy!!
This 4th of July Treat Pouch is an easy project to make with just a square piece of designer paper or cardstock. And covering chocolate nuggets is one of my favorite things to do for a treat!
I had forgotten I made this Uncle Sam 4th of July Patriotic Favor until I got my 4th of July decorations out! You can make this whole thing out of a paper towel roll or chips container, just covering it with paper, and then decorate with Uncle Sam! Or just make Uncle Sam and decorate and decorate something else!
Look through your flower stamp sets and see it you have one that will resemble fireworks like this Flower Patch 4th of July Fireworks Card! These are some old stamps in the Flower Patch Stamp Set (retired) but you can substitute many other things!
I always liked this idea of making firecrackers out of just strips of cardstock or designer paper, then put a little piece of twine or Linen Thread coming out of the top. These, of course, are the only safe kind of fireworks to have! Try this Happy 4th of July! Happy Independence Day! card with whatever paper and stamps you have!
We have lots of ways to make a card like this 4th of July Patriotic Wreath Card with Swirly Scribbles. We have other ways to make the circle wreath or even just punch or die-cut leaves or sprigs or whatever you have to fill in the wreath. On top of the wreath just put flowers or stars or both! You can add some embellishments like Rhinestones or glitter dots, etc. for a little bit of bling and sparkle!
And last but not least, find a way to make an American flag like on this 4th of July Flag Card. Use whatever designer paper you have or cardstock or stamp something. You could make some flags and adhere them to skewers or dowel sticks or even toothpicks and use for a decoration on your table or on top of cupcakes!
I hope you enjoy these past ideas! Have a safe and Happy 4th of July!
