Boo Treat Box for Halloween

 This month Eileen Hull's Inspiration Team is creating with the theme "All Season Crafting!"   

I decided to make a Halloween Treat Box using her new Chapter 3 Box Ornament Die.

I used the box piece, the circles and the moon shaped piece from the ornament die for this project.

I had this black net bag in my stash, I think it held some Halloween skulls I got at Joann last year.  The uneven open edges worked perfectly giving it a spooky 'rising smoke' look.  I filled the bag with Hershey Kisses.  

If this was traveling to someone,  I'd tie a ribbon of some sort around the top to keep the candy inside!

The Happy Halloween sentiment is from Midnight Feast - a retired stamp set from Waltzingmouse.

Here are a few photos on how I colored the box pieces.    I cut everything out of matboard.  I had already colored the circles and the moon piece but will show you how I colored the box sides.  I colored the circle in the same way I'm showing coloring the box sides below.  For the moon, I just sponged with Squeezed Lemonade and Spiced Marmalade.

Here is how I inked the box.  First, I sponged over the panel with Squeezed Lemonade.

Then I added some Salty Ocean

Next I sponged with Seedless Preserves.

And the final color added is Black Soot (mostly along the edges-  all this to create a night sky!

On the inside of the circles and the box piece, I sponged black, just so it wasn't stark white inside!

 The boo is a die from Ellen Hutson and I cut it out of a holographic silver paper (so it shimmers IRL!), the tiny silver stars are from Honey Bee Stamps, the bats and owl on the branch are from an older slim line die strip from Tim Holtz.
