Slender Candy Corn Treat Bags with 6″ x 8″ Cellophane Bags

A few months ago I happened upon a TikTok video that showed how an opened bag of potato chips can be re-sealed with a hot knife. The user heated a knife over a flame on the stove and immediately cut the top of the bag – while the hot knife cut the bag, it simultaneously sealed the bag. I didn’t run to the kitchen to re-seal my potato chips (that’s a lot of work when a clip achieves the same result), but I filed the handy tip away in the back of my head…I didn’t realize how handy it would be as I prepared Halloween treats for the Pals call this past week.

Today I’m going to share slender treat bags I created with Stampin’ Up!’s 6″ x 8″ Cellophane Bags, a hot knife and a cutting board. The knife cute right through the cellophane to yield smaller, candy-friendly bags. How fun!

Here’s a look at the treat holders I created with the 6″ x 8″ Cellophane Bags and a hot knife (and some other super-fun supplies):

I cut bags in different sizes with random cuts with the knife. If I were to make multiples, I would use a metal ruler to get a cleaner, more precise cut.

These treat bags aren’t all about the bags, though – or the gross candy corns inside. I hope you checked out the fun tag toppers, too. Here’s a closer look at each (along with the product listing for each:

Here are the products used in this tag topper:

• The Pumpkin Pie base is cropped with the Label Me Fancy Punch, scored across the width of the punched piece
• I cropped a half-moon from Daffodil Delight with the Scary Silhouettes Dies
• I stamped “Boo!” from the Scary Cute stamp set on Orchid Oasis cardstock and snipped it out with my paper snips
• I tied a knot with the Black & White 1/4″ Gingham Ribbon – what a fun accent!
• I tucked a spooky cat under the ribbon at the top of the tag. The cat is cropped with Basic Black cardstock using the Scary Silhouettes Dies.

Here are the products used in this tag topper:

• The Pumpkin Pie base is cropped with the Label Me Fancy Punch, scored across the length of the punched piece
• I stamped a witch’s hat with Starry Sky ink on Thick Basic Black cardstock using the Bewitching stamp set. I cropped it with the coordinating Witch Hat Builder Punch.
• I cropped Basic Black bat with the Scary Silhouettes Dies
• I stamped “Boo!” from the Scary Cute stamp set on Daffodil Delight cardstock and snipped it out with my paper snips

It was fun to share these projects with the Pals this past week, and I’m happy to share them with you, too!
