Pumpkin Trick or Treat Tote

Are these cute or what? This is a SCAL (Sure Cuts a Lot program) cut file from My Scrap Chick and I had to make some right away!!! These all look so cute in a cluster. The treat box holds quite a few Halloween size treats. Finished size is 5-1/2" x 1-3/4" x 6-1/4" (measured arm to arm, actual box is 3-1/2").

Here's the treat box: note the bottom teeth are attached to the front of the box so it looks like the candy is inside the jaw...........

Treat box front: Sunburst Oval is made from the SCAL (Sure Cuts a Lot Program) Library. I took the measurements of the Trick or Treat stamp, then made the correct size of the Sunburst as well as the White Oval............I love this versatility in using SCAL for doing this!!! Can you believe none of my dies were the correct size......urgh!!! Attach the Black gingham bow using a mini glue dot and pop the whole thing with dimensionals.

Look how cute THAT face: use a black pen to hand draw the eyebrows. The Googlie eyes are off set (for more funnyness):

The cut pieces from the file:


Sponge all edges (except teeth and eyes) using Close to Cocoa (or any contrasting color)
