I started with some ink. I got my studio G ink and a dauber and started to color the box orange. There is a little white bow that I removed from the front of the box. I did not color the inside of the box but I made sure to include the sides.
It covered fairly easy and quickly. Now off to my gypsy to see what images I can use. I wanted to cover the clear window. Don't want 3 year olds to see their treats. ;-) The box folded is a little over 2 1/2 inches. I used the pumpkin from Gypsy Wanderings cut at 2.5 by 2.3.
On another page I added the shadow with a spider from Designer's Calendar and bats from Paper Doll Dress Up. For the bats I removed all of the score lines that showed the eyes and accents on the wings. I did this because the image is so small - only 2.5 by 2.25 and the lines barely cut anyway.
The spider was added onto a square on the inside of the box to cover the see through window.
The three welded bats were added to each side of the box and I accented the face and wings with my white gel pen.
A little inking to the edges of the pumpkin and some pop dots to add dimension to the pumpkin finishes off this cute little treat box. ((Probably overkill for a bunch of 3 year olds but Sunshine loved it! ))
This was a quick, easy and fun way to make these cute little boxes fit a Halloween theme. I am sure they will be a hit at daycare. Thank you all for checking out my project. Be sure to visit me at P-Kay Sunshine Creations. Have a great day!
