Today I have chosen yellow-blue-white from the Tic Tac Toe grid
and made a set of Halloween treat boxes.


I opened two different cut files (details & links below) in Silhouette Studio and enlarged so that the box was 11 1/2" wide ... bigger box means more treats inside for our visitors looking for Halloween treats.  I cut the boxes and arms using the cut file #225951.  I flipped some of the arms before cutting, so that they could all be waving them differently.  I cut several sets of eyes from the cut file #225951 and #225945 so that I could mix and match, making each one different.  I used liquid adhesive to adhere the box side and arms in place (after doing the first one, I realised that it's much easier to tuck the arms in the slits and adhere BEFORE adhering the box side and base).  I used liquid adhesive to adhere the eyes, mouth and teeth too.


The boxes are 4 1/2" tall x 3 3/8" wide x 2 1/4" deep
... plenty of room to fill them with lots of treats!





Pretty CUTE and not a bit SCARY ... what do you think?
