Merry Trickmas?

Alright, so you probably were not expecting to see anything for Halloween for a long time, right?  Well.  Surprise!  I'm a total sucker for anything Halloween.  I bought a Halloween pad from the stamp store a couple of weeks ago, and I couldn't help but play with the papers.  And thus, this box was born!

The patterned paper is from the Spookville pad (We R Memory Keepers), the stamp is one of the Michael's store brands and I colored him with my Prismacolor pencils.  I used Nestabilities Labels 1 (Spellbinders) for the image, and the shape behind it.  The edge of the box lid is punched with the Drippy Goo punch (Martha Stewart).  The finished size of the box is 6x6x3, so it is plenty big! 

So, there you go, perfect for Trickmas, hee hee.  We could start a new holiday!  Don't worry, you can make your box with Christmas papers, if you reaaaaaaaly want to, lol!  And, if you just can't go without something Christmasy, I have something else for you today.

I was originally making this to be a tag, but it could be an ornament too and that is why it is now hanging on our tree.  I used Nestabilities Labels 10 (Spellbinders) for the tag base.  The white flourishes are made with the Snowflake Corner die (Memory Box).  The snowman stamp is an old TAC stamp and I colored him with Prismacolor pencils. 

Let me tell you, this tag/ornament was FUN to make!  Definitely going to make more of these.  They will be great on gifts, or it could even be a wine tag.  

Happy almost Friday!
