Today’s project is a fun little treat box shaped like a coffin. Stampin’ Up!’s new Coffin Boxes come pre-cut and scored, so you only have to glue the corners to assemble them. There’s a window in the coffin lid so you can see its occupant, a vampire from the Monster Bash Designer Series Paper (DSP.) The coffin is lined with more of the DSP, and the spiders on top are cut from a Black Foil Sheet using the Wicked Dies.

Here’s what I did:
Cut and scored with my paper trimmer:
first traced around a coffin box onto two pieces of Monster Bash Designer Series Paper (DSP), then…
cut both pieces along the traced lines
Stamped with the Spooktacular Bash stamp set:
sentiment in Whisper White Craft Ink onto a scrap of Basic Gray card stock (CS)
heat set the ink using a Heat Tool
Cut using the Ornate Frames Dies:
sentiment
ornate frame from a scrap of Basic Gray CS
Cut using the Wicked Dies:
3 spiders from a scrap of Black Foil Sheet
Cut using the Layering Circles Dies:
hole in the die cut ornate frame, and in the top of the coffin box, using the same small die
vampire from the Monster Bash DSP, and a scrap of clear Window Sheet, using the same larger die
Assembled the box:
burnished the folds in the box and lid with a Bone Folder
clear circle adhered onto the inside of the lid, lining the hole, using Tear & Tape
vampire adhered onto the clear circle using Tear & Tape, so he shows through the window in the lid
box and lid folded and glued into shape
one piece of DSP glued onto the inside of the box (bats)
the other piece of DSP glued onto the inside of the lid (cobwebs)
ornate frame glued onto the top of the lid, around the window
sentiment glued onto the top of the lid
3 spiders adhered onto the top of the lid using Mini Glue Dots
2 Red Rhinestones applied onto each spider, to resemble a Black Widow’s hourglass pattern (Yes, I know it’s actually on the bottom of a real spider and not up on its back, but I took a little artistic license.)

Here’s what I made:
I’m out of town at a craft retreat and don’t have my lightbox, so my photos look different than usual.
The card: I tried to create a reflection of mountains and sky. It isn’t a perfect mirrored image, but I think you get the idea.
The treat bag: I made a simple tag that matched the card, and attached it using a copper library clip from the Tags & More Accessory Kit.
