My Huntington themed project features a Paper Mache box that I purchased at Hobby Lobby.  I then used a matte acrylic paint to match the color "Slate" that is a suggested color compliment to the Huntington Paper Pack.

From the Hutington WOTG kit, I used 2 different sheets of B&T papers to cover the painted box.  The box measures 4" wide and is 4 1/4" tall.  I cut the paper for the box at 3 3/4" x 4" (4 pieces). The lid measures 5" square so I used one piece of the B&T paper and cut to 4 7/8" x 4 7/8".  The lip of the box measures 1" x 5" and there I cut (4) 7/8" x 4 7/8" strips and use the other side of the B&T Paper.  I used Tombow Adhesive to adhere cuts to box.





I then colored 2 wooden pumpkin shapes with Autumn Terracotta Exclusive Inks® Stamp Pad, I used 2 different inking techniques.  The smaller pumpkin I colored directly on the ink pad, the larger pumpkin, I sponge dobbed the color on and then distressed with Whisper Exclusive Inks® Marker around the edges and used a little touch of Olive Exclusive Inks® Stamp Pad to color top of pumpkin. The canvas pumpkin comes from the Huntington WOTG kit's Huntington Assortment set.

I used the flourish wood pieces from the Mini-Medley Accents Wooden Collection.  Then I added some sparkles - Brown & Tan Assortment that also comes in the Huntington WOTG kit.

The stamped image is from the Huntington WOTG kit, inked with Slate Exclusive Inks® Stamp Pad.
