This year Lifestyle Crafts has released a collection of Halloween dies title "Be Spooked." The collection includes bats, cats, spiders, pumpkins, witches, ghosts, a dimensional tree, and of course a spooky font. Here I am showcasing these dies in a shadowbox tray. My favorite part about this project was die cutting cork board for "October" and the broom stick. I had never done that before! I also liked layering things to make them really stand out... after all, it is a shadow box!
