Today’s project for my 2022 Six-Week Halloween Countdown series finale is an “All in one Treat Box and Card”. How quickly the time has flown! To make this all in one depends on the size of your candy! As with all bespoke boxes the starting point is measuring the width and depth of the items […]
How to use die cuts with Pretty Birds bundle
