Halloween is one of my absolute favorite holidays to decorate or create for. So when I discovered this frightfully adorable Halloween decor piece, I just fell in love. I’d like to send out a big thanks to Hilary, author of the Hilary Scraps Blog for allowing us to share today’s inspiration. I highly recommend stopping by for a visit anytime you need a burst of inspiration.
Hilary created this little guy using 3 different Sizzix Dies, Brenda Walton Sizzix Bigz Die – Cone, Faceted, Tim Holtz Sizzix Sizzlits Decorative Strip Die: Mini Paper Rosettes, and Tim Holtz Alterations by Sizzix: Word Play Bigz XL Die.
If you are as inspired as I am to make this fun Shabby Chic Halloween Treasure, you can view a full tutorial on Hilary’s Halloween project which was posted on the Sizzix blog. You can find it here.
Thanks for visiting & have a happy Halloween!
