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

Snowflake Tealight Luminary Table Decoration

Since I live in sunny Arizona, we don't see much of the white stuff.  After Christmas I like to decorate the house with things that remind me of Winter.  Today I share with you a very simple tealight luminary I made.

I used these items to make this project:

• Design Studio
• Winter Woodland Cricut cartridge - the card feature cut twice at 3 7/8
• Frosted Lace Stickles - around the edges and the snowflake
• Vellum
• Martha Stewart punch - for the little blue snowflakes
• Blue ribbon

Here's a couple more pics to show the details, including how it looks lit up:

 My original idea for this project was much different than the final project but I am totally happy with the way it turned out.

I am entering this project in the following challenges:

• Decorate to Celebrate Challenge #15 - Winter Wedding
• Shopping Our Stash Challenge #33 - Rewind - redo any of our challenges OR simply use a Meljen's image! - I choose to do Shopping Our Stash Challenge #29 - White - create a mostly white project
• My Craft Spot Monday Challenge #39 - Winter Wonderland - Winter Wonderland MUST use glitter
• Anythin Goes Challenge #57 - Colour Blue and One Other Colour

I had so much fun creating this little tealight luminary...I KNOW I will be making more in the future!
