Halloween Cauldron

I am thrilled to have been chosen as the Grand Marshal at Parade Your Crafts for the month of October!  The current challenge is a Halloween theme.  Lisa sent me some wonderful Halloween papers from The Paper Parade to work with and the ones that you see here are called Trick Or Treat by Fancy Pants.

 I made the base of the cauldron with black AC cardstock and it turned out very sturdy.  The files I used to make this are from the Party on Elm Street SVG kit by SVGCuts.  This is a side view that shows off the wonderful Halloween patterned paper.

 Here is a close up of the tag.  It too was cut from the same collection of patterned paper.  I inked around the outside with black ink, added some buttons, twine and lilac and black ribbon all the way around the cauldron.  Behind the tag I added some burlap and faux spider webbing.

The best part is that this cauldron holds two bags of candy!  Perfect for passing out candy to trick-or-treaters.
