Halloween 3 Nugget Box
It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge! I love being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0042 is Talk Like a Pirate Day (September 19). #festivefridaychallenge I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d love to help you!
The designers at Festive Friday really love bringing this unique challenge to you, and we’re always looking for ways to make it more enticing to play. The intent was never to create a project for the festivity (though you could) – but instead, to find inspiration from the festivity. With that in mind, we’re dropping the and/or, and instead, giving you an Inspo List. The Inspo List is a list of 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE of the items in your project and link up!
We think this will bring a lot of creativity and diversity to not only the Design Team projects but to yours too!

Directions
- 5 1/4” x 6” piece of cardstock or DSP (Designer Series Paper) for box- Stampin’ Up 6 x 6 Paper Stacks are perfect for this!
- 1/2” x 5 1/2” piece of cardstock for belly band
- Paper cutter with scoring blade- I like to use the Stampin’ Up! Simply Scored Tool
- Scissors- Paper Snips are my favorite.
- Sticky Strip™ or Tear & Tape Adhesive
- 3 Hershey’s® Nuggets® chocolate bars
- 3 1” x 3 ¼” pieces of cardstock or DSP
- Embellishments
Step 1
5 1/4″ x 6″ piece of DSP or cardstock. Score across the longer side (Landscape mode) at 3/4″, 1 1/2″, 4 1/2″, and 5 1/4″. Score across the shorter side (Portrait mode) at 3/4″, 2 1/4″, 3″, and 4 1/2″. See picture above
Step 2
- Use scissors to remove the top left and top right sections. Corner Round the two top corners. Use a bone folder on all the score lines. Cut the tabs on the score lines.The box goes together easier if the top and bottom tabs are trimmed on an angle as shown. Apply adhesive to the center tabs. See picture above.
Step 3
Fold the top and bottom tabs in and then fold the center tab over the top. Apply the adhesive. See picture above.
Step 4
Wrap 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ piece of cardstock around box for belly band.
I ran the Pumpkin Pie belly band through the Big Shot with the Subtle Embossing Folder.
Step 5
Embellish as desired.
Step 6
Wrap each Hershey Nugget with a 1″ x 3 1/4″ strip of DSP or cardstock. I punched out bats and popped them up with 1/2 of a Mini Dimensional.
To get my Pirate Bird to stand up, I cut Whisper White Cardstock at 1/4″ x 2″. Score at 1/2″, 1″ and 1-1/2″. Fold on score lines and make a triangle. Attach to the back of the Bird.
