BEWITCHING HALLOWEEN WINDOW BOX with GINGHAM COTTAGE DSP



Hi Friends!
My project today is a Halloween Window Treat box that measures  2 3/4  x  2 3/4  x  1".  I used Bewitching stamp set, the Witch Hat Builder Punch, Best Witches stamp set, Gingham Cottage Designer Series paper and the Stylish Shapes dies.



I started with a piece of of Basic Black Cardstock sized
4 3/4  x  4 3/4".
I scored ALL sides at:
1".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
Below is a picture of how your Cardstock should look after scoring and cutting.


I cut a piece of Basic Black Cardstock to
7/8  x  2 5/8".
I attached it inside one of the sides with Liquid Glue.
I punched a small hole in the same side with a small hole punch.
I cut a piece of Black & White Gingham Ribbon about 6 1/2".
I folded the ribbon in half and tied the loose ends in a knot.
I threaded the ribbon through the small hole in the side, looped side first, from the inside to the outside to make a pull to open the box.


Next, I cut a piece of Pumpkin Pie Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper to
8 1/2  x  2 7/8".
I wound the paper around the box and made fold marks at the corners.
I reinforced the corners with my Bone Folder.
Next I cut a Window in the front part of the DSP using a  2 1/8" circle punch from the Stylish Shapes dies.
I attached a piece of Window Sheet, sized  2 1/2  x  2 1/2"  to the inside of the DSP, with Glue Dots.
I wound the DSP around the box again and attached the overlapped DSP together with Liquid Glue.


I stamped the Witch Hat, from Bewitching stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the Hat out using the Witch Hat Builder Punch.
I colored the Witch Hat with Stampin' Blends.
Dark Pumpkin Pie  -  the Hat Band
Dark Daffodil Delight  -  the Buckle


I stamped the sentiment, from Best Witches stamp set, onto Daffodil Delight Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut the sentiment out using a label die from the Stylish Shapes dies.
I shortened the label but cutting the label twice.
I attached the label to the lower left side of the box with Liquid Glue.


I attached the Witch Hat to the left side of the box with Dimensionals.
I added some Wink of Stella Glitter to the Buckle on the Hat and for the final touch I added 3 Evening Evergreen 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds to the upper right side of the box.
