And now for my project!
Now dont go to crazy at what Im about to say.....
I am NOT a huge fan of Nightmare Before Christmas!  I have NEVER sat through the whole thing start to finish.... soooo I just looked at images online and found that at some point Jack gets covered in snow and looks like a snowman. So THAT is where this projects stems from ha ha..
I embossed the body parts and then I took some black twine and stitched his mouth lines. I LOVE texture afterall, so I needed to do something to make him not so plain!
I added him on the NEW file, Fold Over Treat Holder, which holds the 3 X 4 treat bags perfectly.
I used the icicle border from Winter Dies to edge of the top of the holder , and then stamped  a sentiment from Christmas Signs on the Fall Dies (sign board) 
I wanted a nice pop of color to offset all the purple, so that is where the green hat and the pink twine come into play!
oh...and I filled my treat with Yogurt Raisins.. sooo YUMMY....yea, I polished off the bag once the picture was taken and edited! lol
close up of my Jack face!
