Give your friends a spooky fright this October with this fun Halloween Box of Bats made by
Jane Collman.
Handmade by Jane Collman
Things you will need:
Dies
Die Cutting Machine
Instructions:
Cut base of box shape out of
Black Tinted Card and using
Layer Perfect, cut decorative strips enough for both inside and out from
Orange Stardust Paper. Your
Layer Perfect will also help you to position the strips before sticking with a
Tape Runner. Do not stick square to base yet!
On reverse of orange base square mark the positions where you are going to cut to allow for acetate strips to be threaded through.
You will need a heavyweight acetate for this otherwise the weight of the die cut shapes will be too heavy causing it to flatten. Use the
Extra Thick Acetate and cut thin strips to thread through slits as shown in photo. Use
Ultra Clear Double Sided Tape to stick base square to box.
Trim acetate and stick die cut bats to acetate strips using
Ultra Clear Double Sided Tape and then decorate inside of box using the
Glue Pen and
Pick Up Pencil to help with placement.
Make lid from
Black Tinted Card and add
Orange Stardust Paper panels to outside and top only.
Decorate with more die cut bats and letters.
