Spooky Tent Box for Dollar Tree Goodies - Stampin' Up!

Hi Friends!
My project today is a Tent Box with a Fold Over Flap. I made this box to fit some goodies from the Dollar Tree. I used Everything Essential stamp set, Brights 6x6 Designer Series Paper and Layering Squares dies.

You can see my Video Tutorial Here.

You Can Shop Stampin' Up! with Me Here.

I started with a piece of Pumpkin Pie Cardstock sized 10 1/2 x 6"

I scored the 10 1/2" side at:

3 1/4, 5, 8 1/4 and 10"

I scored the 6" side at:

1 1/4 and 4 1/2"

Turn back to the 10 1/2" side with the 1 1/4" strip on top.

Score to the 1st score line ONLY at:

1 3/8 and 6 3/8"

To cut and put this box together please see my video tutorial here.

I Rounded the corners of the top flap with the Detail Trio Punch.

I added Brights DSP to the Front, Back and Flap sized:

(2) 3 x 3"

(1) 1 x 3"

I cut a square and a scalloped square with the Layering Squares dies with Whisper White and Pumpkin Pie Cardstock.

I stamped the Haunted House Image from Everything Essential stamp set onto a piece of Whisper White Cardstock using Tuxedo Black Ink.

I colored the windows of the image with a Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blend. I colored the banner with a Dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blend.

I used Liquid Glue to mount the Image onto the Pumpkin Pie Scalloped Square and I attached it to the middle of the box with Dimensionals on the Bottom and Middle only. The flap tucks under the top of the Image.

I used the the Black and White Twine from the Playful Pets Ribbon Combo Pack to make a double bow. I attached the bow with 2 glue dots to the middle of the top flap.

I added Wink of Stella to the entire house and added Rhinestones to the bottom right of the box.
