13 Nights of Halloween #2

Welcome to day 2 of my 13 Nights of Halloween. Today I have a layout for you. It will eventually have a picture of the front of my home while it is all decorated for Halloween. 
  I used 2 Cricut cartridges on this layout, Happy Hauntings and Chic & Scary. I cut the title and beware sign from Happy Hauntings. The title was cut at 3-1/2" and beware was cut at 1-3/4". The spider, cut at 4", and web, cut at 3-1/2", were cut from Chic & Scary. I also embossed the spider to make it all shiny. I used a Martha Stewart punch for the smaller spider web. Here are the rest of the details:

  • Cricut cart: Happy Hauntings, Chic & Scary
  • Paper: Basic Grey
  • Cardstock: Bazzill
  • Punch: Martha Stewart
  • Embossing powder: Stampendous in Midnight Black
  • Stickles: Xmas Red
  • Sequins: My Craft Spot
  • Washi Tape: Doodlebug
  • Adhesive: Scotch, Zig
Thanks so much for looking at my project. Remember that I am having a giveaway at the end of this event and all you have to do is leave a comment below. Enter each night to improve your chances. The prize will be revealed the last night. Please come back tomorrow for another project and have a great day! :)

13 Nights of Halloween

Welcome to my 13 Nights of Halloween event! I am so excited to get this going. I absolutely LOVE Halloween. My husband and I go out every year to decorate our home. We do more at Halloween then Christmas! 
     I am starting this event with this cute little card from Create a Critter 2. I cut this out at 4". I also pop dotted the whole thing which really gives it a 3D look. The sentiment also adds to the cute spookiness. Here are the details of the card:

  • Cricut cart: Create a Critter 2
  • Paper: Scrapworks
  • Cardstock: Bazzill
  • Stamp: My Pink Stamper "Spook-alicious"
  • Ink: Versafine in Black Onyx
  • Adhesive: Scotch, Zig
Thanks so much for attending my first day of my 13 Nights of Halloween event and I hope you come back tomorrow for another Halloween project. Also, I am having a little giveaway with my event where you have the chance to win a little goodie from me. Just leave a comment below and at the end of the event I will pick a winner using Random.com. The goodie will be revealed the last day, so goodluck and thanks for coming! :)

Hello Kitty Witch card

     Here is a rather cutie of a card. With it being the Halloween season and a challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut of using Black and Purple in your project, I decided to create this little card. I love the Hello Kitty Greetings cartridge. I would have to say it is my favorite cartridge next to Create a Critter. 
     I used the card feature on the cartridge and cut it out at 6". I then used Stickles on the stars, the shirt, and the bow. Here are the rest of the details:

  • Cricut cart: Hello Kitty Greetings
  • Paper: Bazzill
  • Stickles: Purple, Yellow
  • Adhesive: Scotch, Zig
Please enjoy this card and thank you so much for looking at it. Also remember that tomorrow marks the start of my 13 Nights of Halloween event where everyday I will have a new project to share with you related to Halloween. So please come and visit. Thanks.

Autumn card

Fantabulous Cricut is having a challenge right now to kick off Fall. You need to make a project using Fall colors so I decided to make this really cute tree from Create A Critter 2. This cartridge is perfect for this time of year as it has a couple of pages full of Fall ideas. Here is the details of this card:

  • Cricut cart: Create a Critter 2
  • Paper: Scrapworks
  • Cardstock: Bazzill
  • Ribbon: Really Reasonable Ribbon
  • Stamp: My Craft Spot "Happy Thanksgiving"

Please enjoy my card as I had just a fun time making it. I do want to announce that starting Oct 19th I will be doing 13 Nights of Halloween. Each night I will be posting a different type of project ranging from cards to layouts to a great surprise the night of Halloween. So come back and check to see what is created. Thanks so much for looking! :)
