After a TON of messages, comments, e-mails etc about the Tonic Spooktacular Coffin Treat Box die set that I showed in my last haul video - I was able to get the bases cut!
You definitely need a larger die cut machine (something A4 or larger) to be able to cut the box die out. Vickie contacted me and owns a Spellbinders Grand Caliber machine and was able to lend it to me for a night. I cut out several bases and made several Coffin Treat Boxes:
Eeeekkk! Aren't these FUN?
I used my Big Shot machine to die cut all the decorative pieces - I added a metal shim to my die cutting "sandwich" just to make all the intricate cuts.
I filmed the process of me making these, and showed 2 ways to put these boxes together. There's the "original" way and a second way that opens differently.
I had SO much fun making these - and they're so simple really. All die cutting and gluing together. I forgot to mention in the video that these could easily be jazzed up with Nuvo Crystal drops, googly eyes, etc etc just to make them even more jazzy.
FYI the video is quite long - I never realized how much footage there was till it was time to edit - and I didn't want to cut any of it out (other than as much of the sniffling as possible. This bronchitis is still holding on and it sucks).
To see how these came together check out my video below:
