Coffin Treat Boxes

Hello, again!  Thank you for hanging in there with all my long posts.  While I have a few photos to share with you here, I promise to make this short and sweet!

I had a few paper mache coffins that I have altered using designer paper, handmade paper, die cuts, stamps/inks, fibers/ribbon, stickers and LOTS of Perfect Paper Adhesive (I should own stock in this company!).  I will not do a step by step because my daughter needs the computer to do her homework--yes, we live in the stone-age and share a computer here!  I will make relevant comments along the way.

Goosebumps on the side and bottom.

A little bit of netting under the medallion.

The bottom of this coffin is actually a greyish color, pictured below.  I love this fiber on the edge of the lid--it gives it that coffiny look!

Spider web is heat embossed over woodgrain stamped and distressed paper.

This fiber reminded me of spider webs.

This fiber reminded me of the silk coming from a spinning spider.

Credits to (If there is no credit, suffice it to say, it came from my stash of yardsale finds!) Stamps:  Stamper's Anonymous Tim Holtz Odds and Ends and Trick or Treat, All Nite Media Woodgrain.  Inks/liquids: Perfect Paper Adhesive, Goosebumps by Tsukineko and Distress Inks.
