Your Next Stamp - Designer Showcase "Trick or Treat" (Fang-tastic Halloween)

Welcome to day three of this month's Designer Showcase at Your Next Stamp.

This week we are celebrating Halloween and all things "Trick or Treat"! The design team will be showcase their cute, spooky, fun and creative Halloween Trick or Treat projects, so check out the blog each day, starting October 17 to 20.

Here is a recap for the week so far:

• Day One - Holly and Dian
• Day Two - Deborah, Kendra and Kymona

My trick or treat inspired project, is a gabled treat box, decorated using the Fang-tastic Halloween. These treat boxes will be for my daughter's teachers, filled with a few goodies. The inside of the box is approximately 4 inches wide, by 3 inches high by 1.75 inches deep.

The original template and tutorial for this box can be found at Splitcoast stamper (here). That template uses one sheet of 8.5 x 11 cardstock. I wanted my box to be wider and shorter, so I played around with the size and came up with the measurements and scoring marks below.

Thanks for checking out my Halloween trick or treat box for this month's Designer Showcase. If you head over to the YNS blog, you will see more fabulous Halloween themed projects.

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful and crafty day!

Supplies Used

Your Next Stamp - Sketch/Colour Challenge # 25

Welcome to our sketch and colour challenge #25 at Your Next Stamp. Each challenge includes a sketch and colour options to inspire you.

Create a project based on the sketch and/or the colour combination. If you are working with the colours use at least 3 of the colours and you can add only neutrals.

Today I worked the sketch into the design for a Halloween Treat box. At the request of my daughter (this is for her teacher) I used Waddle Trick or Treat; creating a treat box that is 2.5 x 2.5 x 4 inches.

I used the fun Doodlebug October 31 paper to decorate the tiny treat box.

On the back of the box I used the Halloween Phoebe die set to create spooky scene from black card stock.

For our sketch and colour challenge # 25 you have until October 29, 2015 (midnight) to play along. You can see more inspiration and link up your projects over at Your Next Stamp.

One random participant will WIN a $15 gift card to the YNS store. If you feature a YNS stamp or die (must be the main focal point) you will receive and additional $5. When you use a YNS image there is also a chance of being selected as a YNS Top Pick. That's right, bragging rights for you and a fabulous badge to show off on your blog! Sounds exciting right? Ink up your stamps and show us your crafty stuff!

Have a fabulous and crafty Friday friends!
