Cut Above Halloween Treat Bags
These treat bags are a super cute little party favor for your guests, but could also be a fun item to give the "special" trick or treaters that might ring your door bell. You receive everything you need to make these adorable treat bags. The only addition I made was the hand stamped greeting on the top of the bag. I used a cute coordinating stamp set that also works nicely with the Christmas Cut Above Treat Bags.

Here's a picture of everything that comes in the Treat Bag Set
I arranged mine in a cauldron as part of my Halloween Party Display. I thing they are absolutely adorable!
Cupcake Toppers
OK, I guess I could have cut the skull and cross bones a little smaller, but honestly, I think these turned out so cute, I plan to use them as some other type of decorating after the cupcakes are gone. I cut them from the Artbooking cartridge at 5" high by 3.77" wide, from silver glitter paper. I have a package of lollypop sticks in a Halloween print, so I grabbed them. I used some acetate (I save the packaging the cricut cartridges come in) that I cut into strips to attach the skull and cross bones to the stick.
As you can see, I took a sharpie marker to draw where I wanted to cut away the acetate so it wouldn't show behind the eye sockets.
Once that was trimmed away, I used scotch tape to attach the acetate to the back of the skull and cross bones. To get the acetate to hold the lollypop stick, I cut in from the sides to create tabs to wrap around the stick. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture of that part, oops! Anyway, I bent the acetate around the stick and, once again, used tape to hold it in place. To cover the tape and decorate the area, I used a small piece of black shimmer trim.
The only thing left to do is to stick it into a cupcake!
Don't forget the Potion Bottles!
I made my labels using the Magic Potions stamp set and ran them through my little Xyron sticker maker to add adhesive to the backs of the lables. I dug up a few bottles and slapped the lables on. For the picture I added a few drops of food coloring to water, but I didn't stir it up, I let it swirl in the bottles and lab beaker.
That's it for today! Tomorrow I will have the final post for my Halloween Party Display. I really love the way it has all come together! Be sure to check back tomorrow!
