Spook-tac-u-lar Day 13: Take Out Box Treat Holders

Welcome back to Day 13 of Spook-tac-u-lar Halloween Projects.  Be sure to stop by and see what Rhonda has to share with you at http://www.scraphappenswithrhonda.blogspot.com/ when you are finished here.

Today, I have some Take Out Container Treat Boxes to share.  These are going to be filled with candy and used as the awards for our Halloween Costume Contest at the party.  I made three of each, because we usually have three categories for the contest.  I started out with 3 blank take out boxes and decorated them on the front and back.


For the 1st Place awards, I used the black take out boxes and made Bats.  I used white vinyl to cut the font for the back using the Batman Cartridge.  For the mouth, I used the Smiley Cards and George and Basic Shapes Cartridges.  I then hot glued on some google eyes.  I used black cardstock to cut the wings from the Simply Charmed Cartridge and then hot glued them to the sides of the box.


For the 2nd Place awards, I used the white take out boxes and made ghosts.  The front face is from George and Basic Shapes and the back font is from the Batman Cricut Cartridge.  I used black vinyl for all of the cuts.

For the 3rd Place awards, I used the orange take out boxes and made Jack-o-Lanterns.  I used the Pumpkin Carvings Cartridge for the front and the Batman Cartridge for the font.  All cuts were out of black vinyl.


I am entering this into the following challenge:
