Inspiration: TGIF challenge #338
Earlier, when I was going through my dies to finish up a project, I spotted the Mini Curvy Keepsakes Box dies and thought this box would be great for the Halloween treat packages I'm working on. I went back to the Boo Crew papers. I used the same patterned paper but used a different side on both.
Of all the packaging dies I own, this one is arguably the simplest to use: you die-cut the whole box in one pass and not a drop of glue is required to put together. I just use my bone folder to round the paper up and then you slide the left and right side over the handle and you're done. I used the oval and star tags from the same die set and to monogram the boxes, I used the Alphanumeric Cutout Lower Alphabet from Tim Holtz with black foil sheets. I tied ribbon on the boxes and added a spider on the side of the plaid box and a little ghost on the side of the black box.
