13 Nights of Halloween #4


     Today is day #4 of my 13 Nights of Halloween and I have a new project for you. This cut comes from Cricut cartridge Mini Monsters. I love the style of old street lamps and just fell in love with this one. Plus it's Halloween which gives it another plus!
     I cut the lamp out at 4-3/4". I wouldn't recommend cutting it much smaller as the words might not cut very clear and would be very hard to understand. My card base is a normal A2 size, 4-1/4" x 5-1/2". Here are the rest of the supplies:

  • Cricut cart: Mini Monsters
  • Paper: Unknown
  • Cardstock: Bazzill
  • Stickles: Yellow
  • Ribbon: Really Reasonable Ribbon
  • Pop dots: Recollections
  • Adhesive: Scotch, Zig
Thanks so much again for looking at my project and blog. I really appreciate it. Come back tomorrow for another Halloween project as we count down my 13 Nights of Halloween. And don't forget about the giveaway. Just leave a comment below to be entered to win a cute Halloween tp mini album! Pics coming soon. Thanks again. :)

13 Nights of Halloween #3

Welcome and here is day 3 project of my 13 Nights of Halloween event. Today I have another card for you all. This one is pretty easy as it only required one Cricut cartridge, Happy Hauntings. I cut the frame at 4-3/4" and the pumpkin at 2-1/2". I love the layering of the pumpkin in this cut as it comes so alive. Initially the frame comes with a different character in it but I just substituted the pumpkin for it. Here are the rest of the details: 

  • Cricut cart: Happy Hauntings
  • Paper: Bazzill
  • Stamp: My Pink Stamper " Spook-alicous"
  • Ink: CTMH Black
  • Foam dots: Recollections Pop Dots
  • Adhesive: Scotch, Zig 
I hope you are all enjoying my projects so far and maybe even getting some ideas. It's definitely not to late to make a few cards for Halloween. And don't forget about the giveaway I'm holding. Just leave a comment below for a chance to win something good. I will pick a winner with Random.org on Nov 2. Thanks so much for looking at my site. Have a great day! :)

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.
