Tombstone Treat Holders

Happy Halloween All My Crafty Friends!!!
I just love Halloween and all the fun activities that are involved.. Well, I want to share the spooky little treats I created for my son's class (22 of them, Yikes!!).. I was at the store and I stumbled upon these fun "Skulls and Bones" candies.. So, I thought it would be fun to put the candies in a tombstone shaped treat holder.. They turned out so cute and I even had time to shoot a video showing you how a made them :0)







Supplies I used:
*Gypsy
*Mini Monsters ( tombstone cut)
*From my Kitchen (rectangle cut)
*Ink
*White Pen
*Candies

Thanks so much for stopping by today..Oh don't forget to stop by tomorrow because I'm kicking off my "Thoughtful Project Thursdays" segment again.. There will be fun projects, guest designers, and maybe even a prize or two ;0)
