When I was a kid I use to spend the few weeks before Halloween looking for the perfect costume. I would put sometime a special request to my mom so she could help me by sewing my ideas together.
To get into the spirit of Halloween, I did this special treat box for the before and after school boys I am looking after. I got this inspiration from a fellow consultant Sharon aka the Oki Stamp Queen.
Here is my project: A "Scary treat box". I had a lot of fun doing it as it was really easy with the Close to My Heart Artist and Artbooking Cricut cartridges.
If you want I can send you a kit for $6 + shipping or you can pick up if you live in Calgary.
The kit will have all pre-cut pieces and instruction (adhesive not include)
