After seeing a cute Frankenstein fry box on "Stamp & Scrap with Frenchie" I thought I would try one. I did not invest in the Stampin' Up! fry box die because I already had one. I just couldn't justify spending the money on another one. I have not used mine in while. Another reason not to buy another one!! Mine is shaped a little bit different than the Stampin' Up! one but you can make it work.
I used Old Olive card stock to make the fry box. I used a 1" circle punch for the eyeball and a 1/2" circle punch for the center. I took the Real Red marker and drew in the bloodshot lines. I then added the black centers. The eyelid is a 1" circle punched from Old Olive and cut in half. I sponged the edges of the Old Olive on the eyes after I assembled them.
The nose is a 1-1/4" circle of Old Olive and I sponged the edges before assembling the face. Glue down the nose first, then the eyes. That way you can tell where to put the mouth and the scar. I did not add the bolts sticking out. They would just get bent or hung up on something. I added a 1/2" silver circle to each side of the box.
Fill it with candy and give it to your favorite someone!!! I'm not sure who I am going to give this one too.
These are very easy and fun to make. I would say, from start to finish, that I had this complete in under 20 minutes!
Thank you SO much for visiting today,

Hi Wanda!!! I love the Frankenstein Box. Very cute idea. I never ordered it. I have so much I don't use and so much I still want but I can NOT spend money on craft stuff at this time due to other obligations like Health Med. and things... It sure does break my heart thou. But I love seeing ALL the things being made. Keep up the GREAT work...
