"No Rest for the Wicked"
altered coffin box 
by Leigh

For your enjoyment today I altered a craft coffin box featuring my new design No Rest for the Wicked and the Moon is from Kitty Luna💀


I have quite a stash of coffin boxes but couldn't resist this one I found at Target this year coz it's a nice deep one with lots of space to decorate.  I used Black Soot Distress Stain to paint it black.


Coloured No Rest for the Wicked and the Kitty Luna moon with Copics and fussy cut them out.


I created a spooktacular galaxy sky with Wilted Violet, Salty Ocean and Faded Jeans Distress Oxides, Black Soot Distress ink, Crushed Grape and Vibrant Turquoise Dylusions sprays and white acrylic paint.  I covered the box with panels cut from the background paper and adhered the images to the box lid then embellished the lid and sides of the box with bats and graveyard scenes die cut from black cardstock.


The images and die cuts look faBOOlous against the mesmerizing galaxy sky...love it!


Neo checked out the Zombie hands and declared he's no scaredy cat😸


Looks wickedly creepy in the spooky evening glow too!
