WITCHES TREAT BOX HAT

Here's a quick and easy project you and your kids can make for Halloween.  I made about 20 boxes for an upcoming craft fair.      
Supply List:

Stamps: Wicked Cool, Background Basics (retired)
Ink: Basic Black Classic Ink, Whisper White Craft Ink
Cardstock: Basic Black, Perfect Plum, Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White, Cast-a-Spell (retired dsp)
Tools & Accessories: 1" circle, 1 1/4" circle, designer label punch, curly label extra large, 1 1/4" Striped Grosgrain Ribbon-Old Olive, crop-a-dile, craft and paper scissors, sticky strip

Measurements:
Assembled Box measures 4 1/4" x 11" scored at 5 1/2".  Each end is scored from the center point to the center score line 5 1/2". 

Basic Black strip for bottom of the hat 7" x 1".  Go in 1 1/2" and trim ends at an angle.

Perfect Plum strip 6" x 3/4".  Go in 1/2" and trim ends at an angle.

Punch holes at the top of the box with the crop-a-dile and run your ribbon through it.  Cut your ribbon into strips to give it a wicked look.

I adhered the sides of my box with sticky strip so that it will hold a variety of candy.

You're done!
