Halloween Shadow Box Tray

Inspired by the fun paper collection Steam Punk Spells by Graphic 45 and the Authentique Enchanted Halloween Collection, I decided to decorate a shadow box tray with Halloween pictures and several cutting files. All the cutting files can be found in the Pazzles Craft Room Library. To decorate the top of my shadow box tray I used the Flourish Hardware file backed by chipboard and to accent the flourish I added some sequins for some sparkle. I cut out the Spooky cutting file to add on top of the spider web coaster. Simply cutting out a mat of glittered paper and adding some dimensional dots allowed me to give some of my note cards dimension. I added Glossy Accents to the skull to give it some gloss as well, and added glittered bats and sequins. I decided to create a spells book using one of the note cards from the collection. For this book I simply cut and scored a kraft colored paper in 2 ½” x 3″, and finished it off by chalking the edges with black chalk. I used black spider web coasters that I purchased at Michaels and chalked them just a bit with white chalk ink. For the pumpkins I used glitter and chalk to accent as well as dimensional dots and leaves sprayed with glitter mist. On the owl note card I used sequins for the eyes and accented it with Ranger Stickles. I finished it off adding a skull hand from the Halloween collection at Michaels along with two pictures of my little red riding hood.
