Welcome to the Papertrey Ink group post for Halloween Treats & Sweets!
It’s such a sweet set that includes both small and large scale versions of the cutest Halloween images ever! Heather did such a great job designing this sweet set.
First off are some tags that I created using the small bat and cat images as the focal points.
I used Tag Sale #1 and die cut Kraft cardstock. Then I stamped the die cut Simply Chartreuse Cardstock with the sentiments before using the linen impression plate on them.
The Black & White Stripes ribbon has been colored with an orange Copic Marker for additional coordination. It’s a great ribbon to have on hand to do this with.
Maile’s new houndstooth background is So amazing too! I really love houndstooth and am so happy to have it in my PTI arsenal! OK… isn’t this cat adorable!?
I thought this bat had to have white teeth and googly eyes… there’s also glitter on the teeth for and extra spooky touch. LOL! The Eyelet Lace die cut has also been glittered.
Next are the little Batty Treat Boxes that I created using this set and the new Favor It Box 6 die. I decided to keep these simple and VERY mass producible.
You can see here where I adhered the bat wing onto the seam of the box before finishing the assembly.
Here is a final close up of one of the bats! Houndstooth wings for a toothy bat! I can’t wait to give these away .
I used larger googly eyes on these. Heehee.

These tags are the cutest ever! The colors are terrific and I especially like the way you used the herringbone background as a border, as well as on the bat wings-great application. You sold me on that one!
