Blossom Punch Makes Perfect Treat

I needed the perfect fall treat for the Scrap Club Girl but wanted to focus on Fall instead of Halloween.  The Stampin' Up Blossom Punch and Autumn Designer Paper were just the ticket.  I used half a sheet of 12 x 12 inches (cut to 6 x 12).  I rolled the sheet to make a cone with a pointed back and stapled it in place.  This is also the shape of the old Victorian "Tussy Mussy" that was filled with flowers back in the day.  I stapled a ribbon loop onto the back so it could be hung on a door knob or hook. 
 Six inch wide tulle from a spool was cut to make a 6" x 12" rectangle.  I gathered the tulle with my fingers right down the middle to make a bow shape and stapled it in the middle.  Then the bow was stapled onto the front of the cone.  The flower was made with 2 blossom punches and a purchased flower and a button layered together with glue dots. 

I glued a loop of raffia to the back
 of the finished blossom with Fabri-Tac then used more glue to attach it to the tulle bow.  The treat cones were filled  with shredded paper, chocolate, a few craft supplies, lots of love, and voila! -  a treat with no trick!  We had a great time eating cornbread and taco soup and making our first, would you believe, Christmas cards of the season!  Trick or treat!
All supplies can be purchased at my Stampin-Up website at www.lyndafalconer.stampinup.net
