For my monthly in-person classes in my home in Meza, Arizona, I love to give every participant a treat packet. In September, I created this cute Halloween treat packet using Stampin’ Up!’s Nested Essential Dies, the Mini Alphabet Dies, and some Halloween Dies. No stamping here!
The elongated hexagon-shaped dies reminded me of a coffin, so I created a design that allowed me to include a chocolate treat.
Here’s what the treat packet looks like from the side. It fits a Fun-Size candy bar.
Measurements and Details
Here are a few details to help you make this packet at home:
Die cut the largest hexagon shape from the Nested Essentials Dies with Basic Black cardstock.
Use the second largest hexagon shape from the Nested Essentials Dies to cut a shape from the Spooky Sweet 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper (grey pattern)
Die cut letters using the Mini Alphabet Dies. (I recommend using Adhesive Sheets.)
Die cut two bats and one spider from the Spooky Halloween Dies and the Fright Night Dies in Basic Black
I added a Black & Gold Ribbon
The “kickstand” and candy bar hold measures 1 x 8 and is scored at 4 inches and 5 inches. Be sure to watch the video below to see how this treat packet comes together.

Isn’t this packet super fun? Let me know if you have questions about it or any other stamping project. I’m happy to help.
Thanks so much for visiting my blog today!

When I hold my monthly in person stamping classes in my home in Mesa, Arizona, I love to give each stamper a fun treat packet.
This month, I created these cute little Boo! treat packets as my gift to them. I used the Alphabet A’ La Mode Dies. The dies let you spell any sentiment you want. And, once upon a time, Stampin’ Up! sold the clear boxes that measure about 3 1/4 x 3 1/4. I found some extras in my stash and decided to create something fun for Halloween. And, I filled them with Reese’s Peanut Butter ghosts!
These DIY treat boxes are perfect for those special trick or treaters, kids, nieces, nephews, and grandkids, too!
If you don’t have access to these clear boxes, the current Scalloped Gift Card Boxes would work, as well.
Alphabet A’ La Mode for Halloween Treat Box
Here are a few details and measurements to help you get started:
Alphabet A’ La Mode Dies with Granny Apply Green, Pumpkin Pie, and Gorgeous Grape card stock. Tip: Apply Adhesive Sheets to the back of the card stock before die cutting. I die cut all the pieces and then mixed and matched the letters.
Basic Black card stock die cut with circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies.
Black & Very Vanilla 3/8″ Large Check Ribbon colored with Stampin’ Blends. I used both Gorgeous Grape and Pumpkin Pie.
Gems: The Gorgeous Grape gems from the Glossy Dots Assortment work, as do the Granny Apple Green gems from the Iridescent Adhesive-Backed Discs.
I hope you enjoy these cute little Halloween treat boxes. I know my stampers appreciated them this month.
