Halloween Jam Jar Holder -Catalogue Case

 This Halloween Jam Jar holder  is a case from the July- December 2021 Mini Catalogue on  Pg. 50. 

Since there were no directions from Stampin' Up it took me a few tries to get the box part the right size.  

There are 2 ways this little holder could be made;

1.  With one piece of card stock so the back portion and the box are cut from the same  piece of card stock

2.  In 2 pieces - with the box and back are made separately and then adhered together.

I chose to do the second option.

Measurements:

Box:

Basic Black card stock 4 3/4 by 4 3/4" .  Score 1 1/2 " on all 4 sides.  Make this into a box in the usual way.

Back portion:

Basic Black card stock 2 1/4 by 4". Adhere a 2 1/4 by 4" piece of Halloween DSP to it and then round the corners with a corner rounder punch. Determine which side of the box is the back side, and adhere this piece to the inside of that.

Decorating:

• Cut 2 pieces of  6 by 1 1/4" black glitter paper, joining the two pieces together.  Trim to 9"
• Adhere to box ends all the way around box.
• Use a blender brush to apply Old Olive ink to a 6 by 6" piece of  Cute     Halloween DSP (polka dot pattern).  Cut 2 pieces of 1 by 6".  Adhere together and trim to 1 by 9".  Add on top of  black glitter strip around box.
• White emboss the sentiment "Trick or Treat" on Basic Black cardstock and die cut with layering circle die.  Layer with a larger Pumpkin Pie scallop circle and ad to box front using dimensionals.
• Stamp a cat face with Basic Gray ink and punch with the Halloween punch.
• Adhere to box front at an angle overlapping the sentiment circle.

Jam Jar:

• Adhere some black/white gingham ribbon  and a bow around the rim of the jar.
• Die cut a 1 5/8" black glitter circle using the layering circle dies.  Die cut a smaller DSP circle (candy corn) which had been colored with Pumpkin Pie ink.
• Adhere together and then adhere to top of lid.
• Fill container with candy.
