For this set of party crackers I used the Ho Ho Ho October 2022 Paper Pumpkin Kit.

I made windows in the party crackers using a die from the Stitched Rectangle dies and a Window Sheet.

I didn’t have the color ribbon that I wanted to use on this cracker box. I’ll share a quick tip on the video for how to color your White Crinkle Ribbon to match your projects.

I used the printed envelopes and die cuts from the Ho Ho Ho Paper Pumpkin kit to create these boxes.

The Window Sheet lets you see what’s inside the box. I filled these with candies, but you can fill them with trinkets, toys, favors and more.


For this set I created a tray for the treat boxes with only the bottom of the box with Glimmer Paper.

I will be sharing the rest of the tutorials in my Party Cracker Series over the next few weeks here on my blog.

    #stampitcontest – Can’t wait to see instructions on snowman popper!

  20. Marilyn Deitemeyer says

    already left previous comment but are you going to show how you did the snowmen? I’m trying to figure out how you did the bottom of snowman since you cut it.

    • I actually didn’t cut the bottom off. I only put the paper 1/2 way up the die for both top and bottom. And yes, I will have instructions coming for these and all of my party crackers. stay tuned
