Witch Box....LOVE IT!

I can't take credit for this box.  BUT you know me and my punches, I love them!  My downline Janey sent me a link Gretchen Barron's blog  (CLICK HERE)and she had the cutest little Halloween boxes.  Now hers were made using the Top Notes die, but this month in my club I am featuring the Fancy Box die for the Big Shot.  So I switched it up just a little bit and ended up with this!  I love it!  I thought she was just too cute!

The hat was made with my Fiskars cutter, except for the rounded edges of the hat that I used the corner rounder on.  The eyes are the 1 inch punch (eyelids too), the eyeballs are the 1/2 inch punch (wart too), the nose and mouth were made using the large oval punch.  Can't wait to fill this little box with treats! 

Here are the supplies:

• Basic Black Cardstock 102851
• Gable Green Cardstock 102795
• Green Galore Cardstock 101768
• More Mustard Cardstock 100946
• Lovely Lilac Cardstock 100427
• Sponges 101610
• Green Galore Ink 102122
• More Mustard Ink 103162
• Lovely Lilac Ink 102874
• Large Oval Punch 107305
• 1 inch Circle Punch 109046
• 1/2 inch Circle Punch 104390
• White Gel Pen 105021

Here are the basic steps:

1. Sponge each piece of cardstock with the corresponding ink colour.  I used Green Galore on the Gable Green
2. The hat was a 3 x 3 square that I cut into the triangle (measure 1 1/2 inches on one edge and cut to each opposite corner)
3. The rim is 3 1/2 x 1 1/4 and then I rounded the corners
4. The Lovely Lilac ribbon is 3/4 of an inch thick.  Attach this to the triangle portion of the hat first, then trim before attaching to the rim
5. Put adhesive on the back of the rim and attach the hair.  Trim after the hat is attached to the box and curl by wrapping it around your gel pen (or any other round object)
6. Attach the eyeballs to the eyes
7. Attach the eyelids
8. Attach the eyes to the box
9. Attach the nose, wart and mouth to the box
10. Assemble the box

Hope you like it and have yourself a wonderful day!
