Mom’s Halloween Treat Box & A Christmas Box

Happy Halloween! Today I have a special treat for you. My mom made a Halloween treat box and shared it a few months ago when she and I did the September – December 2023 Mini Catalog Sneak Peek video and today I finally have the instructions for you!

I created a Christmas version that I created during my weekly Facebook Live. You can watch me create the Christmas Treat Box below and if you want to make the Halloween version you can make it using the same steps.

In the video I mention that I earned the Stampin’ Up! Incentive Trip to Mexico. Stampin’ Up! would like me to mention that this is a tremendous accomplishment that less than 1% of demonstrators earn.
