What You Will Need

  • Cricut Maker
  • Cricut Foil Acetate
  • Scoring Wheel
  • Cricut Kraft Board in black
  • Cricut EasyPress 2 and mat (the 6x7 size works great here)
  • Clear tape or tape runner
  • Cricut Everyday Iron-on in white
  • Candy
  • Iron-on Protective Sheet or parchment paper
  • Cut file for Cricut Design Space

Instructions

  • Start by cutting all of your materials. The foil acetate needs to be cut with the good side down so you can do your folds towards the scoring line. For this, you will follow the instructions on the screen for changing out the scoring wheel for the fine point blade. You will also want to be sure to mirror the cut on the iron-on and cut with the shiny side down.
  • Then weed away all excess from your iron-on including the eyes, nose, and mouth of your skeleton. Weeding tools make this a bit easier but are not required.
  • Add the iron-on to the black coffin shape. Preheat your cardstock, add the skeleton, and then press according to the recommended settings for the EasyPress. Be sure to protect your cardstock by using either the iron-on protective sheet or some parchment paper.
  • Then fold your acetate coffin boxes. Remove the protective film and fold along all score lines.
  • Then use clear tape or a tape runner to secure the box.
  • Add the black coffin to the top with more tape then fill it with candy! Halloween gift ideas have never been so easy!
