Halloween Bitty Box

I just got my NEW Simply Scored Scoring Tool! It's just amazing and so easy to use! I don't have to worry about scoring my paper with the wrong measurements anymore.
I immediately made these Halloween boxes. The LOLLIPOP embellishments were made with the Simply Scored Scoring Tool #122334. To put an extra pizzaz on these lollipops, I glued silver glass glitter #120995 at the edges.

I also used my favorite Halloween Stamp set "Batty for You" #116576 and heat embossed the images to Whisper White Cardstock. I used a 1" circle punch to punch out the images without their captions so I can give an extra layer of cardstock measuring 1-1/4".

If you really want to learn how to make these embellishments, come try it out for size in my classes. Just email to book your class with me :) Not only will you make these boxes, you'll get to make Halloween Cards and other Halloween Favors.

Here are other designs and colors. So much fun to play with.

Halloween Invitation

At work, we have this big Halloween Decor in front and it leaves a bold impression that Halloween is here! Can anyone guess what it is? Anyway, my project today will show you. Yes, it's a creepy window...lol. I just couldn't resist making a card out of it. I hope you like it :)

Below is an earlier stage of my card... didn't quite know how to complete it yet. But of course, the undying owl punch always is the winner. This time I used my Mummy Owl. Cute one ey..



I was looking for a stamp for Invites but I guess it's an oldie retired set.

Altered Milk Carton Boxes - Tutorial

Hey, there! By popular demand, here is a mini tutorial on how to make these Altered Milk Carton Boxes. It's really easy, but if you really need more detailed instructions, read on....



With two 5-1/2" x 6" Cardstock pieces, use the BigShot Milk Carton Die #117310. Position your cardstock from the seam or tab of the box die. As a result, the other side of the cardstock will only have a portion of the 4th side of the box.



Cut the partial piece of the box. Then, fold all scores.



Now with Sticky Strip or Crystal Effects glue (my college friend, Dodjie, had used the code #101055 as a metaphor for a person who brings people together...lol!!!) Thanks, Dodjie. :) Anyway, if you know me well, I prefer using the crystal effects glue on everything! :)




To assemble the box, glue the Cardstock pieces as illustrated.

Then cut the bottom flap corners of the box for easy bottom seal.


TIP: To position your box well, I'd put a round item (maybe a ball or a 2-3/4" diameter sauce dish)



To punch holes on the top edge of the box opening, use the 3/16" hole of the Crop-a-Dial #108362. Punch the hole right in the middle of each fold as illustrated.


Viola!!! You have your gorgeous box :) I hope this mini tutorial helped. Have fun making them!
