Today I have a cute project for you using the Trick or Tweet stamp set. I designed a door hanger box that you can fill with a treat and leave on a neighbors door or even on your kids bedroom doors. This box has lots of potential for more than just Halloween. On my At Monika’s Place Facebook Page on Monday October 22, 2018 I did a Facebook Live where I showed how to create this door hanger. Be sure to visit my page and watch it.
I used a piece of Basic Black card stock for the base and my trimmer to score and cut to create my box. The piece is 8″ x 8″. Then score on one side at 2-3/4″, 3-3/4″, 6-1/2″, and 7-1/2″. Now turn so the large section is at the top of your trimmer and score at 1″ all the way across. Then move to the 4-1/2″ mark and cut starting at 2-3/4″ out to the end at 8″ – don’t cut through that large section that is at the top of the trimmer. Next trim away the rest of the piece along the 2-3/4″ score line. You will also cut your tabs at the bottom and remove the small piece on the end. Here is a diagram to show you (and watch my Facebook Live too). To create a hole for the door knob use the 2-1/4″ circle punch.

I used Memento ink to stamp my image and colored it in with the Stampin’ Blends. A little trick for the tiny pumpkin use the 1/2″ circle punch to punch it out instead of cutting. I popped it up on a mini dimensional. Here is a closer look.
I filled my box with a peanut butter pumpkin. If my boys were still living at home I’d hang one on each of their bedroom doors for Halloween.
