We're Crafting Boo Boxes with GlueArts and Authentique!

 Halloween Boo Boxes
Sorceress GlueArts Designer: Lesley Langdon

Designer Tip: I love little boxes, because they spice up your tables, and you can place many types of goodies and little presents inside. Good things come in small boxes! With these cute papers, and the fact that they are double sided, just adds to the character of these little gifts.

Supplies:
Glue Arts Glue Glider Pro (Pro+ Cartridge)
Glue Arts Hot Glue Gun
AUTHENTIQUE Glowing Collection (Patterned Paper, Stickers, and Die Cuts)
Spellbinders S4-352 Spiral Blossoms Two (Die Template)

2. Fill inside of boxes with candies, then tie shut with ribbons.

3. Make spiral blossom flowers for the tops of boxes by die cutting more Authentique patterned papers using a flower die template. Roll in from the outside and hold together with your Glue Arts Hot Glue Gun (if you would like a different color, use some of your mists to add colors to your patterned papers).

Candy Treat Container
Ghostly GlueArts Designer: Ania Lexander

GlueArts supplies: 
Glue Glider PRO+ - High Tac
U Cut it Foam
Raisens

Other: Antique Howling, empty box (mine was a perfume box =) ), wooden sticks

1. Measure your box and decide for a "background"-patterned paper. Cut out the needed squares and adhere with high tac adhesive.

2. For the back and front I decided to go with a "mat" where the tags and die cuts would be adhered to with a mix of raisens and U cut it foam.

3. The harlequin-pattern of the "enchanted" sheet makes such a nice border - just handcut it and adhere around the top of the box.

4. Take the remaining die cuts and adhere them two by two on a wooden stick with raisens in the middle. 

5.- Fill with candy and stick the wooden sticks in between 

Finally - I have to brag a bit.  Comment from my daughters 5 yr old friend: Wow, that's so pretty and frightening at the same time!
