Make It Mine: Halloween Tombstone

Halloween Tombstone

Boo! It’s October and that means it’s time to celebrate Halloween. These tombstone boxes from Stampin’ Up! are adorable and perfect for your Halloween treats. The box portion of the tombstone is 3 3/8″ x 2 1/2″ so it’s a good size. It’s also food safe! The boxes are quick and easy to put together.

I decorated my tombstone box with Stampin’ Up!’s Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper. Yes, I cut out the little ghost right from the paper! I didn’t have the Cutest Halloween stamp set or the coordinating Halloween Punch but my Paper Snips worked out perfectly for my project.

The label is die cut from the Ornate Frames Dies. After die-cutting the label I ran it through my Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. The letters are die cut using the Playful Alphabet Dies.

This fabulous little project was my inspiration for Make It Mine Monday. Isn’t it fun? I would have loved to use large letters on my project but unfortunately they are a retired product (although I do still have them…).

Not only did the large letters catch my eye but so did the use of the gingham ribbon and the gingham paper. I love my plaid!

This trio of tombstones is so dang cute you may just see another take on this project from me later this month so stay tuned!

Have a great day! Take care and Happy Stamping!
