Halloween milk cartons and crate


I am making some adorable mini milk cartons for Halloween gifts. I originally found this great idea on the cricut message boards. My first set came straight from the inspiration provided by createalittle.blogspot.com her 07-06-10 post. Go here to see my imitations. For my halloween boxes I am copying the design elements from the carton I created at a SU! event a few weeks ago. Go here to refresh your memory.   
Here are a few close up shots. I cut the bats from Paper doll dress up Cricut cartridge at 2 inches. There are two different bats on that one cartridge. Who knew? I really have to pay closer attention.
Here is one carton out of the crate.
Here is the cartons back side. This is how I chose to close the cartons so that the recipient can open, empty and then reclose them if they choose too keep and display them.....Oh, I hope they choose to keep and display them.

The crate is my own Cricut design. I will be happy to share that with anyone who posts thier request in the comments of this post.
I used the 2009 DCWV fall stack and Imagine that textured card stock to make these mini milk cartons and crates. I hope you enjoy seeing them.
Find inspiration everywhere! Go... Create something fun & fabulous. Enjoy!
