Halloween Exploding Box

This cute Halloween decoration was inspired by Kathy's Exploding House at http://paperphenomenon.blogspot.com/ and Lisa's Barn Project at http://bugjunkie.blogspot.com/.  My twist was to add a different roof to my exploding box.  I was admiring my daughter's 3-D haunted house from the Happy Hauntings cartridge and thought the tower piece would make a great roof for my house.  I cut the tower at 14 inches and that seemed to fit a 4 inch square box lid nicely.  If you peek inside the roof window, a skull and kitty are making their spooky presence. I used a Martha Stewart Punch for the jack-o-lantern by the front door and her spider web edge punch for the roof.
