Treats, No Tricks—Make Halloween Spooky-Sweet

This month’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop theme is “Fall Frenzy,” and I couldn’t be more excited! There’s just something magical about this time of year—the crunch of leaves underfoot, the sweet scent of pumpkin spice in the air, and that first hint of sweater weather that makes you want to cozy up with a mug of hot cocoa.

And then… after all the apple cider and hayrides, along comes Halloween! From playful pumpkins to ghostly giggles, it’s one of the most delightful holidays to craft for. Luckily, Stampin’ Up! has everything you need to add a touch of spooky charm to your paper projects. The Spooky Sweet Suite Collection is perfect for handmade cards, scrapbook layouts, and all the little paper details that make this season so special. And if you’re short on time but big on cute, the Spooky Sweet Kit makes it easy to whip up treat boxes that will be the hit of any Halloween party—or the sweetest surprise for trick-or-treaters.

So grab the collection or the kit, your favorite Halloween colors, and maybe a piece (or two!) of candy, and let’s jump into some frightfully festive inspiration!


The Spooky Sweet Suite Collection has everything you need to create spook-tacular Halloween cards, tags, and scrapbook pages—all perfectly coordinated so your projects come together like magic. This playful suite features the Spooky Halloween photopolymer stamp set, complete with a costumed dog and cat ready for trick-or-treating, plus coordinating Spooky Halloween dies to cut out an adorable, haunted house and other festive shapes.

You’ll love the Spooky Sweet Specialty Designer Series Paper with its not-so-spooky patterns and precut images, as well as the food-safe Iridescent Treat Bags for packaging sweet surprises. Add in Petunia Pop Iridescent Ribbon, Shimmer Star Foam Stickers, your favorite ink and cardstock and you’re ready to make perfectly ghoulish projects. Every element in the suite works together beautifully, making it frightfully fun—and frightfully easy—to bring your Halloween paper crafts to life.


The Sweet & Spooky Kit makes Halloween gifting frightfully fun and fabulously easy! This all-inclusive kit creates 15 treat boxes—five each of three playful designs—featuring adorable ghosts, bats, pumpkins, and more in a whimsical Halloween palette with iridescent accents. Each box comes with a matching tag, making them perfect for party favors, classroom goodies, or charming little surprises for neighbors and friends.

With printed and iridescent-foil precut pieces, pressed wood picks, baker’s twine, holographic star embellishments, and even adhesive included, you’ll have everything you need right at your fingertips. Whether you’re a brand-new crafter or just short on time, this kit makes it quick, easy, and oh-so-cute to package your Halloween treats in style.
