It’s Thanksgiving for us this weekend. So that means there’s only a couple more weeks until Halloween. My munchkins can’t wait to make the house look all spooky! In the meantime I’m enjoying some spooky crafting and thought I’d share some matching Halloween cards and boxes I made.
For the cards I used a Basic Black card base and a couple of different designs from the Them Bones Designer Series Paper pack. On top of the DSP I added a 2″ x 2″ piece of Basic White cardstock. I stamped that with the spider and “Boo!” from the Cottage Wreaths stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento ink… of course. Then I layered some 1/2″ strips of Basic Black cardstock around it and trimmed off the extra.
The 2 matching boxes are mini explosion boxes. To make them I used more Basic Black cardstock for the box itself. And then I made lids with the same DSP designs. To keep them secure I added some Linen Thread. Then for the tag, I used the same stamps as the cards, but I die cut them using the Something Fancy dies.
I’ve never made matching Halloween cards and boxes before. But this was fun! I think I need to do this again next year.
