I am so enjoying the Spooky Night Suite of products in the 2017 Holiday Catalog. It’s cute, scary, pretty, and creepy – whatever you need it to be! Today I’ve used it to make a treat bag so you can give some yummy little treats or gifts to your Trick-or-Treaters this Halloween. The owl image and the sentiment are from the Spooky Cat stamp set. The Mini Treat Bag Thinlits Dies make it super quick and easy to make treat bags out of any of Stampin’ Up!’s amazing paper, including the Spooky Night Designer Series Paper (DSP) I’ve used here today.
Here’s the Spooky Night Suite:

I like to decorate my whole house for Halloween. I even want the tissue boxes to be Halloweeny. The Spooky Night Designer Series Paper with witch hats on it seemed perfect for a cute and festive, yet spooky tissue box cover. And it’s so easy, you just won’t believe it. It’s almost like wrapping a gift. This is one of the vertical cube-like tissue boxes (about 4-1/2″ on each side and 5″ tall) but you can certainly apply the same method to the long, horizontal boxes.
Here’s what I made:
Here’s what I did:
Cut and scored with my Stampin’ Trimmer:
Spooky Night Designer Series Paper (DSP) cut to 12″ x 4-1/2″
DSP cut to 6-1/2″ x 4-1/2″
DSP cut to 8-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ for the top
Die cut using the Layering Ovals Framelits:
Selected three sized of oval dies, the smallest of which was almost as big at the hole in the top of the box
Pumpkin Pie card stock (CS) cut with the middle sized die, then the center cut out with the smallest die
Basic Black CS cut with the largest die, then the center cut out with the smallest die
cut a hole in the center of the 8-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ piece of DSP with the smallest of the three dies
Assembled the cover:
Be sure not to make the cover too tight, or it will be too difficult to remove it and put it on a new box
the two 4-1/2″ strips of DSP wrapped around the box and glued together at both ends – be careful not to glue the DSP to the box itself, unless you want it to be permanent, instead of a removable box cover
the 8-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ piece of DSP centered on top of the box and folded down the sides, then burnished the creases with a bone folder
cut one crease line at each corner with Paper Snips, then put it back on top of the box with the first DSP pieces wrapped around the sides of the box – be sure the sides pieces go all the way down to the bottom of the box
top piece of tissue box cover, fold dotted lines and cut solid lines
glue the folded over bits of DSP to the sides, tucking the corner pieces under the adjacent side.
adhered ribbon with Tear & Tape, being sure to cover the seam where the two pieces of DSP meet.
Pumpkin Pie CS oval glued onto the Basic Black CS oval, lining up the center holes
Basic Black CS oval glued onto the top of the DSP box cover, lining up the center holes

The 2017 Holiday Catalog has a new folded tag bundle called Seasonal Chums. (The first folded tag bundle is called A Little Wild, and it’s on page 108 of the Annual Catalog.) Seasonal Chums has three adorable tags (jack-o-lantern, reindeer, and snowman) as well as five sentiment stamps. Today I’ve used the jack-o-lantern to create a tag for a 2″ x 6″ Cellophane Bag full of black jelly beans. I’ll most definitely be giving this away, because I hate licorice – yes, I’m using the word hate. But I love the this bundle!
Here’s what I made:
