It’s time to prepare for Halloween! Today’s project features Bewitching Stars Treat Bags. The “bewitching” in the title comes from using the Bewitching Bundle in the Stampin’ Up! July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. The bundle contains the Bewitching Stamp Set and the Witch Hat Builder Punch. In the same catalog, you’ll find the Stars Treat Bags. The treat bags are sturdy and will make the perfect table favor to stand at each place setting. And for the sentiment, you’ll find the “Boo!” stamp in the Cottage Wreaths Stamp Set (or select your favorite Halloween sentiment to use!)
Bewitching Stars Treat Bags Project Details:
Stamp the witch hat and the shoes with legs images onto Basic White cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. TIP: the Stamparatus is the perfect tool to use when stamping the images.
If you selected the dotted witch hat as above, select your desired Stampin’ Blends colors to color the dots. Also, color the leggings and buckle on the shoes. Colors used on my project were: Parakeet Party, Tahitian Tide, Real Red and Daffodil Delight.
Use the coordinating Witches Hat Builder Punch to cut the hat shape.
Fussy cut the shoes with legs image (or if you own a Scan & Cut or other electronic scan/die cutting machine, the image can be easily cut. NOTE: use a pencil to connect the two legs together so they cut in one piece – erase after cutting)
Add the witch hat to the legs then attach to the lower right front edge of the Stars Treat Bag using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
If desired, stamp Boo! onto Basic White cardstock using Parakeet Party. If you have the retired circle punches, 3/4″ & 1″, use them to cut the sentiment and a piece of black cardstock to layer the sentiment. Otherwise, use the smallest two Stylish Shapes circle dies.
Loop into a bow shape the Parakeet 1/8″ Metallic Woven Ribbon and attach to the treat bag using Stampin’ Seal+. Next, add the layered sentiment over the bow using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Next is the fun part – fill the bag with treats!!!

This month’s kit-to go features the Hello Harvest Bundle and the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper from the Stampin’ Up! July-December 2022 Mini Catalog. One of the cards is this Hello Harvest Fun Fold card. The fun fold is the book binding fold variation has been rotated so that it opens from bottom to top. Since I choose one of the black and white designer series papers as my base layer, I decided to keep the pumpkin white and bring in additional color by coloring the floral spray for the top of the pumpkin. I think it was a great choice! What do you think?

Each month I like to include a little something extra in the card kit to-go packages. Since this month’s theme featured products from the Rustic Harvest Suite, I decided to decorate the Peekaboo Treat Bags using the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper. It’s the first time that I have used the Peekaboo Treat Bags but it certainly won’t be the last! Plans are already in place to use them for treat giving this holiday season. The treat bags are the perfect size for small treats, food safe and a great price! And best of all, decorating the peekaboo treat bags is simple. So be sure to add these treat bags to your next Stampin’ Up! order.
Project Materials:
Peekaboo Treat Bags
Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper
Basic White Cardstock (scraps for stamping leaves & sentiment)
Hello Harvest Bundle (for leaves)
Cup of Tea Bundle (for tag)
Mossy Meadow Classic Stampin’ Pad
Linen Thread
Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive
Mini Glue Dots
Stampin’ Dimensionals
Instruction Tips:
Cut the desired pattern from the Rustic Harvest Designer Series Paper. The width for both top and bottom panels is 3-15/16″. On my samples, the cut dimensions for the top panel is 3-15/16″ x 1-7/8″. There was some variation on the bottom panel height of the peekaboo bags so I recommend measuring the panel to determine the height you desire. The height varied from 1″ -1’12”.
Use multipurpose liquid adhesive to attach the designer series paper panels to the peekaboo treat bag panels.
Stamp leaves onto Basic White cardstock using Mossy Meadow ink pad and cut with the coordinating die.
Using the Mossy Meadow ink, stamp “enjoy” onto the Basic White cardstock and cut with the tag die. (both the stamp and tag are from the Cup of Tea bundle).
Now it’s time to add your treats to your Peekaboo Treat Bag!!! To go with the fall theme, I added Pumpkin Spice and Apple Flavored candies – yum!!!
Wrap Linen Thread three times around the top band of the Peekaboo Treat Bag positioning the twine in the notches on each side of the bag.
Attach the die cut leaves and tag to the top band over the twine.
Complete by embellishing the tag top with a Linen Thread bow.
As mentioned earlier, I’ll be using the Peekaboo Treat Bags for the upcoming holidays. So be sure to subscribe to my blog so you’ll get notifications when I post. I have additional ideas for embellishing the treat bags.
