How to Make a Halloween Gift Card + Treat Holder | WOW DIY Project (Video)

Ready to make a Halloween project that will seriously WOW?

Today I’m sharing a Halloween version of the Christmas Gift Card Treat Holder I taught this weekend at the NC Demos Fall Quarterly (hosted by my team member Jennifer Hamlin).

At the event, I was honored to serve as “MC” and teach all of the projects to fellow demonstrators — and this one was a huge hit! It’s part treat box, part gift card holder, and 100% fun.

Why You’ll Love This Project

Unlike the quick treats you might hand out to trick-or-treaters, this project is more elaborate — making it perfect for:

• Teachers & coworkers
• Party hosts
• Special friends or family

It’s a gift all on its own, but with space for a gift card AND treats, it’s sure to bring a big smile.

What I Used Today

For this version, I featured the Fright Night stamp and die bundle paired with the Spooky Sweet Designer Series Paper (DSP) for a fun Halloween twist.

The original design was created for Christmas using:

• Elegant Pine Snowflakes DSP
• Branching Out Dies
• Traditional Labels Dies
• Greetings For You Mix & Match Ephemera

This shows just how versatile the design can be — use it for any season by swapping the papers and stamps!

More Inspiration + Join the Fun!

Events like the NC Demo Quarterly are one of my favorite parts of being a demonstrator. Sharing projects, learning from others, and building friendships is what makes this community so special.
