Sour Cream Containers!!!!

Hello and Happy Tuesday Everyone!
Today I'm gonna show you one of
the things I did this past weekend...
Halloween is coming up and I always
make something for my sons classroom...
Well after much debate I decided to
make Sour Cream Containers! Now,
I have never ever made these before
and I have NOOOOO idea why I
haven't made them sooner! :o)
I went over to Okie's blog:
And if you click on the link... It should take you
straight to her video on how simple and easy
these are to make.... :o)
Anyway.... here are the ones I made.... :o)

(Click on Photo to Enlarge)

I used 12 x 12 DCWV Halloween paper (Assorted)
and cut them out at 4" x 5 1/4"
You get 6 out of 1 sheet of 12 x 12 paper...
Then used My ATG Gun and put them through
the crimper....

I used a SU Circle & Scallop Punch....
The Sentiment is also from SU....
Added a brad to keep it in place....
I made a bunch of these and the first
batch I made I used thicker Card stock
and they kept opening sooo
I had to re-do them with thinner paper...
Just an FYI on that! :o)
I filled them all up with YUMMY
M&M's candy.... I'm sure his
class will love that!
Thanks OKIE for the Video... It
was sooooo HELPFUL! :o)
I'll be back tomorrow with
a Card I did for the Cricut Cardz Challenge!
Have a GREAT DAY!!!!
