To make this, I started out with a small white gift box.
I decorated the box with various bat stickers all around and on the top.
I then used the Paper Doll Dress Up cart to cut a face using the blackout feature at a size 7.53Hx3.19W and I cut the Dracula hair to fit the face. I added google eyes and painted on purple eyelids and added the fangs. Once the face was complete, it was hot glued to the first fold of the black paper and then the bottom of the accordian folded paper was hot glued into the box.
Now to make the handle, I took a small wood piece and one of the mini spools that I have been using and hot glued them together, painted them black, and then hot glued to the side of the box. The accordian folded paper allows you to push the head down in the box and when you open it, he pops out.
I am also entering this into the My Sheri Crafts Challenge this week which is to make a Halloween Project. You can find their blog here: http://myshericrafts.blogspot.com/
