Hi Friends!
My project today is a Halloween Book Box that measures 3 1/4 x 2 3/8 x 7/8". I will hole 2 fun size candy bars. I used Best Witches stamp set, Stylish Shapes dies, Layering Circle dies and Black & White Designs Designer Series Paper.
I started with a piece of Gorgeous Grape Cardstock sized
5 5/8 x 3 1/4".
I scored the 5 5/8" side only at:
2 3/8 and 3 1/4".
There is no cutting for this piece.
Next,
I cut a piece of Basic Black Cardstock sized
4 1/2 x 3 3/4".
I scored the 4 1/2" side at:
3/4 and 3 3/4".
I scored the 3 3/4" side at:
3/4 and 3".
To cut and put the box together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
Below are pictures of how your Cardstock pieces should look after scoring and cutting.
I attached 3 pieces of Black & White Designs Designer Series Paper to the box.
(2) 2 1/8 x 3" for the top and bottom
(1) 5/8 x 3" for the binding.
I attached the DSP to the box with Liquid Glue.
I cut a piece of Gorgeous Grape Cardstock sized
4 x 1".
I folded the strip around the opened side of the box with about 1 1/4" of it on the back.
I attached only the 1 1/4" end of the strip to the back of the box with Liquid Glue.
I attached a 5/8" Adhesive Velcro Dos to the front for a closure.
I stamped the image, from Best Witches stamp set, onto Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I cut top of the image out with a 1 7/8" circle die from the Layering Circle dies.
I stamped the Frog image onto the bottom left side of a 2 1/8 x 3" piece of Basic White Cardstock with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I colored both images with Stampin' Blends.
Light Basic Black Hat and Cape
Dark Flirty Flamingo Cheeks
Dark Petal Pink Face
Dark Highland Heather Hat Band, Under Hat, Dress
Dark Daffodil Delight Buckle
Dark So Saffron Hair
Light & Dark Granny Apple Green Frog
I attached the Cardstock with the Frog to the inside cover of the box with Liquid Glue.
I cut a 2" Scalloped Circle from Gorgeous Grape Cardstock using the Layering Circle dies.
I cut a 2 1/8" Stitched Circle from Granny Apple Green Cardstock using the Stylish Shapes dies.
I attached the circles together largest to smallest, Witch image on top, with Liquid Glue.
I attached the Circles onto the front part of the Strip with Liquid Glue.
I tied Glittered Organdy Ribbon around the Spine of the Box and tied a bow on the outside. I secured the knot of the bow to the box with a Glue Dot.
I added some Wink of Stella Glitter to the Witch Hat and Cape.
For the final touch I added 3 Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the front the box.
