Almost Halloween!

I spent Friday and Saturday this week at the Jingle Bell Crop and had a great time. I managed to get some unfinished things done. Not terribly exciting but I feel a sense of accomplishment at least. And I created two layouts (one finished and one not quite) for some of the pictures of my San Francisco trip last July. Now I am not generally a big fan of crops because I like being at home when I create and having everything around me because you never know what you are going to need. But this is one crop that I enjoy. It's only in Calgary so I come home at night and if I forgot something then I can grab it. And the food...I can't say enough about Cindy's cooking. I'm still full today!

Anyway on to today's project. This is a cute little box that we made in one of my recent stampers club. It uses the top note die and a pizza box style of box.
