Halloween Octagonal Box - LNS October Challenge

I have made an Octagonal box (the lid comes off) before, and I was actually really wanting to make a Halloween one.  So, when I saw the challenge with LNS for October, I thought this was the perfect opportunity.
I used a video tutorial by Beth Beard here

Octagonal Box with Removable lid

I had so much fun making this 8 sided box and lid - as well as the flower decorating the lid.  This is thanks to an excellent video here which provided me with all the information I needed.  I cased the box, but used different designer paper.



Inks: Baked Brown sugar, Early Espresso
Papers: Basic Black, Typeset DSP, Baked Brown suger
Accessories: Mini Milk Carton die, Baked Brown ruffled stretch ribbon, circle framelit, large rhinestone
Punches for flower:  Scallop circle die, 2 1/2" scallop circle punch, 1 1/2" scallop circle punch, 7/8" scallop circle punch


I intend to make more of these boxes.
