Little Witch!!!

I can't even really explain why I like this little witch so much, but from the moment I saw her, I was in love!!!

I made the little bag first, then I thought I should make a coordinating card, and then I made the little box for club. I probably had way too much fun with this project. Oh well!
Here is the little box we made at club. The pattern I used is a 2, 5, 7, 10 box that I slightly modified.

After following the tutorial, you might see how you could make the box without the flap, or a little bit shorter than specified, which is what I did. I actually made two of these little boxes from one sheet of card stock. What I did was:
- score my card stock at 2, 5, 7, and 10 inches (just like the tutorial),
- cut it in half lenghtwise at 4 1/4" (not like the tutorial)
- score that side at 2"
At this point I follow the rest of the instructions for cutting the flaps and completing but it turns out to be a lot easier than that whole flap nonsense!
If you have questions, email me or leave a comment. I'm happy to help!
And then it just needs decorated however you like. I love making this box because it only takes a half a sheet of cardstock and you don't need anything fancy to make it. Just a cutting blade and scoring tool. Yay!

Inside the box I used a:
*Medium size cello bag from Stampin' Up! that I stuffed full of taffy. Yum!
(Sorry club ladies!!!)

Here is the matching card I made.

And then last bu not least, the sweet little baggie I made using a Mini Lunch Sack. Love these!
For the words on the bottom I used:
*Word window Punch and Modern Label Punch

For all of the Projects I used:
* Greeting Card Kids (witch), Wicked Cool (bats) and Teeny Tiny Wishes (words) stamp sets
* Black Stayz On and Pumpkin Pie Classic ink
* Crumb Cake (color formerly known as Kraft), Whisper White, Basic Black and Pumpkin Pie card stocks
* Stampin' Pastels and Blender pens
* Pumpkin Pie 1/8" Taffeta ribbon
* Circle Scissors plus (to cut the circles)
* Perfect Polka Dot and Square Lattice impressions folders
