Today’s project is a fun Halloween candy holder made with supplies from the September 2020 Paper Pumpkin Kit along with a few additional materials & supplies.
Half of a double-sided Cracker Box piece is used per candy holder.
For the below samples I used the Magic in this Night Designer Series Paper instead of the Cracker Box piece.

2. Fold **Cracker Box on new score lines and apply adhesive on center panel. Line bottom edge of Cracker Box paper to be about 1/4″ above fold of cardstock & adhere. Fold end panel on one end of Cracker Box and apply adhesive on back and wrap to front of cardstock to adhere; repeat for other side. Lift end panels and adhere in place with Dimensionals.

4. Tie ends of ribbon together with baker’s twine to secure.
5. Embellish as desired.
**To use Designer Paper instead of Cracker Box: Fold Designer Series Paper on score lines and apply adhesive on center panel.
