Hi Everyone!

I am thrilled to be on the Spellbinders blog  to share some fun Halloween projects I’ve made with the cool and fun new Halloween collection by Becca Feeken  from Spellbinders.

I will start by showing my favorite - a Little paper lantern I created from mixing the dies from 
S3-405 Spooky Boo, S4-1071 Spooky Cottage with the awesome S6-153  Charming Cottage Box die which is a Christmas set from last year.

I started by diecutting the box from light gray cardstock that I inked using a brick stencil. I then diecut the doors and windows to what would become my old Church Enerything was inked with Brown, gray or black distress ink Before I adhered them to my box. With a battery driven plastic light inside this becomes a spooky but Beautiful lantern.

I also want to share how there dies can be used to make fast but Lovely CAS Halloween cards:
