Fall Frolic Day #1

Welcome to Day #1 of the Fall Frolic Event! Today I’m going to share with you an adorable little Halloween Box that makes the perfect party favor, decoration or perhaps a gift for a co-worker, family member or friend!
The Designer Series Paper that I choose to use for this box is the "Night and Day" Designer Series Paper" featured in the Holiday Mini Catalog. I just love how this paper is a complete pack of Black and White Designs!
And there’s some more terrific news about this fabulous paper! It’s available as a NEW Digital Download for My Digital Studio, along with 6 other fabulous additions! All of these in addition to the My Digital Studio Software are available for purchase today.
ALY’S HELPFUL HINTS: 
- This delightful box looks so unique because it was created with a printed window sheet from the Night & Day Specialty DSP!
- The Big Shot paired with the Box #2 Die takes all of the guesswork out of this pattern, cutting and scoring all in one BIG SHOT!
- Sticky Strip makes the perfect adhesive for a unique project like this – we don’t want those M&M’s falling out now do we!?
- To add a little somethin’ somethin’ to the punched out scull, a Stampin’ Sponge and Basic Black Inkpad worked wonders!
- Adding "sprigs" of cording into ribbon knots makes a wonderful extra accent.
- Clear Rhinestone Eyes are exactly what this little skull needs to look complete.
- The darling bitty "Boo!" tag stamp images and coordinating punch are not yet available for purchase – they are a sneak peek of items coming soon in the Ocassions Mini Catalog!
