This coffin idea came from Debbie at The Paper Garden. I subscribe to her blog so that I know when she makes a new posting. Debbie has a lot of GREAT ideas for gift giving, so make sure you stop by and visit her blog! Debbie also makes sure to give links to tutorials or templates for her projects. The template for the coffin is from Martha Stewart's website and there is a template as well as a video on making it.
After getting the Martha Stewart template and printing it out, I used CTMH B&T paper from an old Halloween scrapbooking kit I had with punch-out art. After getting the template cut out, I stamped
"Happy Birthday" on it because the recipient of this coffin has a birthday on Halloween, and placed the mummy and cat from the punch-out art on top after fussy cutting them. After that I taped the flaps in place to make the coffin 3D and filled it with candy to give.
great job! Thanks for linking back to me and your kind comments.
