Scary Pumpkin Treat Box and Luminary


Today I bring to you a 2 in 1 - Pumpkin Treat Box and Luminary.
 
Here you can see it as a treat box and a pretty good size treat box too, 4 1/2 wide x 4 1/4 high.

 
 Filled with lots of yummy chocolate treats!
 


 
Here is a view of the back.


The sides.



I'm not sure if you can see it in the photos but I did give the pumpkin some texture and it really looks very similar to the real thing.
 
 
And now what this treat box looks like as a luminary...scary!!!!
 
 
I used these items to create my Pumpkin Treat Box and Luminary:
  • Design Studio
  • Happy Hauntings Cricut cartridge - pumpkin
  • October 31st Cricut cartridge - face of the pumpkin - Using the Design Studio I hid the outer contours and just used the face and placed inside the pumpkin (so it would be cut out of the pumpkin)
  • Fiskars Texture Plate (carpet) - on the pumpkin
  • brown ink - on the edges
  • Michael's $1.00 Wooden stamp - on the back
I am entering this Pumpkin Treat Box and Luminary in the following challenges:
