13 Days of Halloween - BOO did I scare you?

The annual 13 Days of Halloween are in full swing over at the Simply Betty Stamps blog and here is my share / challenge for the day:

A pop-up box card using Mummy London from the Teen Scene Halloween collection at Simply Betty Stamps.

I made / designed a box card file and used my Silver Bullet Professional electronic cutter to cut it and all but the flowers and poison sign for this card. I had so much fun coloring this image and believe it or not, I used my drawing pencils to color her - haven't pulled those things out since a few years after high school! It was so much fun to play with them again.

Here are a couple more pics with 1 showing the semi-closed / side view and another showing more of a top view.
