Poppin’ Fun Halloween Treats!
Here’s a fun treat that isn’t just for kids! Grab a few lunch bags & individual microwave popcorn packages, and you’re on the way to some fun treats for neighbors, co-workers, as well as the little costumed visitors we’ll be expecting later this Fall!
Talk about “easy”! There are no specific sizes to remember. Simply wrap a lunch bag around your popcorn package, fold crisply with a bone folder, and adhere the end of the bag to close. Now you can see the size of your front area to decorate with these festive pumpkins & candy corn images from the Hanna Stamps Halloween Mini Set! Even though its a ‘mini’ set, it’s packed with 11 stamps! After all images were stamped and masked with Eclipse tape, a quick spray with my Copic Airbrush System added a touch of green to the Neenah White paper. What a fun tool!
The embossed “Trick or Treat” pull-tab has a couple of orange eyelets which actually attach the tab to the popcorn package. The sheer ribbon is pulled through the eyelets and knotted at the front. Tex’s Tip: I love using my Cropadile for setting eyelets! It’s quick & quiet, plus the hole puncher is included.

Stickles glitter glue adorns a few of the candy corn images, and black glitter just seemed “necessary” on the center pumpkin’s face! The other 2 pumpkin smiles the “Boo!” were given a glossy touch with my Sakura Glaze Black pen.
