Something Altered

Well this is the last challenge for the

13 Days Of Halloween

Over at

Simply Betty Stamps

 

The Challenge is

Something Altered

 

I used the

Skull Witch London Digi

 

 

Here is my altered project

 

 

I used a old cigar box I found at a thrift store.  The papers I used came from Die Cuts With A View paper stack.  I glued my papers on the inside and the outside of my box.  I colored my Skull Witch London Digi with colored pencils and markers.  I used a cute Boo ribbon and bow as embellishment.  I also raided my Halloween stash and went crazy with my embellishments.  I am using this box to store my Halloween punches and stamps that I have.  It helps me a lot to have my stuff organized in their on containers so I can find again next year.
