Halloween Takeout

Inspiration: Simon Says Stamp Monday (It's a Wrap) + In[k]spire Me #368

I used my new Tim Holtz Halloween papers to make cute little take-out boxes. The Takeout dies come from the Stampin' Up! 2018 Holidays catalogue. I also used some adorable faux wax sceal stickers from Recollections. I was convinced those were actual wax sceals when I bought them - until I got them out of the package at home and found out they are puffy stickers! The effect is that convincing! (And the price is way better than wax sceals would be!)

I tested out my Black Soot Distress Crayon on one of the boxes, running it around the edges and smudging the crayon with my fingers. I really like the smoky look you get using this medium. It might be the easiest way to distress edges without getting harsh lines.

These are nothing short of fabulous! Halloween and take out? What a clever pairing! I really like the way you incorporated those gorgeous plaids and subtle tones. These have POW and elegance and the same time and they were such a treat to see. Thank you for sharing such a unique and inspiring idea with us here at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog!
