I love creating 3D projects and treat packaging which is why I feel the need to purchase every Halloween Stamp Set Stampin' Up! introduces. I purchase bags of candy no one in my house will eat just because it lends itself to pretty re-packaging. (my office mates love me, lol!) I was introduced to these tiny little Tic Tac packages by a fellow SU Demonstrator who brilliantly attached them to her business cards. They are tiny, they hold 4 mints per package and I couldn't help but dress them up for Halloween.
I purchased them at Walmart (which is the only place I have seen them) and they come 50 to a package. I thought they would be a fun favor to hand out at my Holiday Catalog Kick Off Party this weekend but making 50 required an assembly line to stamp, cut and construct.
One episode of Game of Thrones to sponge 50 moons, another episode to put them together. (yes I am having GOT withdrawal and started watching again from Season 1!) Here you can see just how mini these little mini packs are:
I used Perfect Plum Card Stock from Stampin' Up! cut at 1 1/4" X 4" and scored at 1/2" , 2 1/4" and 2 1/2". I pushed the mints up to the top of the package and stapled the bottom of the package inside the little fold. The staple was covered up by my little tombstones from the Spooky Fun Stamp Set and the Halloween Scenes Die Bundle on page 52 of the Holiday Catalog. Attach the moon and tuck the front flap behind the tombstones. Quick, Easy and oh so cute!
Here are all 50 of them, done and ready to go! (Okay, maybe 49) The little basket they are sitting in was made with my Silhouette Cameo. What you can't see in the picture are the skull cut-outs across the front. Have I mentioned how much I love my Cameo?
Please let me know what you think and thanks for stoppin' by today!
