"PROJECT A DAY" for the month of October, Day 6!

Hi!

I bet you thought I wouldn't get one done today!  Wrong!  :)  I just had a lot of running around to do today!  So...for today there's nothing exciting to report...Oh except, Dollar Tree has so many great items for Halloween!  So on to the project...It's a box for what ever you want...I call it "Always a bridesmaid never a bride"  or I guess it could be "til death do us part"! 
**another disclaimer~ I'm having a little trouble with sizing things with my gypsy ~ you can't tell, but the box doesn't exactly fit together right...I think I'm going to have to look up some videos on it! :)




Recipe:
Happy Hauntings ~ coffin
Paper ~ Colorbox
Stampin Up punch for flowers, border, stamps & rhinestone brads
Dollar Tree ~ skeleton & red flower
tule
Enjoy!
