Bitty Bat Punch Milk Carton

Another one of my favorite Sizzix dies is the "Milk Carton" one. I have a LOT of fun with that one. I have made many different items using it. I have filled them with milk bath, bath salts, candies, bird seed and even lip balm! There's TONS of uses for this die.
Today I used the die to make a clear milk carton. I wanted the pumpkins inside to be visible. And with the Window Sheets everything is visible!

When doing these with the Window Sheets be sure to keep an eye on the seams. You want to make sure they are in the back when you are ready to decorate the carton.

I used some very thin (1/8") Red Line tape to hold the carton together. And at the top I did tape it but I also used the Crop-a-dial to punch the holes for the ribbon. It punches so nice and easy. Punching though those layers of plastic was like punching through a piece of card stock! Easy Peasy!

On the front I added a bat using the "Bitty Bat" punch. Such a cute little punch. I will be putting it away until next October but that's ok, I've used it an awful lot and I think you may be getting tired of seeing it appear on everything I make lately! After this week, it's the Thanksgiving and Christmas theme!

This was a fun little project to do!

Thank you SO much for visiting today,
Wanda

Putting it away!!!? Com' on Wanda ... use your imagination ... I know you can come up with another use for that little bat. After all, I've seen the owl turned into a ghost. I love your creations! Keep up the good work.
