Easy DIY Jello Cup Vampires
How adorable are the little Jello Cup Vampires I made using my Cricut?!?
When it comes to Halloween treats for those fun school parties, many schools have a policy that the treats need to be sealed (for the safety of the kids.) Some school go a step further and don't allow any food treats at all due to the rise in food allergies and sensitivities in kids. If that is the case in your school check out my post on 20 fun non-food items -->HERE<-- you can give out for Halloween for fun ideas on what to send with your kids.
For those who are allowed to bring food treats (as long as they are sealed in a wrapper), I have been designing some vinyl designs you can cut out with a Cricut Explore Air 2 or Cricut Maker to transform favorite treats and snacks into Halloween treats your kids will love.
I am soo happy with how these designs have been turning out I couldn't wait to share the first one with you. For this treat, I used Red Snack Pack Jello Cups, and White & Black Vinyl to make Little Vampire Jello Cups.

I love this treat because, well they are sooo cute! When my kids saw them they just LOVED them! I will probably be including them and some of the other Halloween snacks I have made (and will be sharing soon) in my kid's lunches leading up to Halloween. The other reason I love these treats is how cheap and easy they were to make. You can buy these Jello cups (or others like them) at your local grocery store for really cheap. Due to their size, you use very little vinyl for the faces. Best of all they are really quick to make. It only to me a few minutes to make them.
