Decoration/Card Using Happy Hauntings and Fantabulous Cricut Challenge 182

October 16, 2013 5 Comments

Hi all,

I originally intended this project to be a card but after it was completed I decided to keep it as a table decoration.  It looks so cute on my kitchen shelf.  I was inspired to create this project by Fantabulous Cricut Challenge blog.  They asked us to Create a project using Black & Purple as your main colors.   I used the cricut Happy Hauntings cartridge and cut the witch at 4 inches with all her layers.  I made a step card and attached her, the title and the ghost from the same cartridge to the first and top steps.  I added google eyes and embossed the broom with the swirls folder and my cuttlebug. The paper is from a Halloween pack I purchased at Michaels last year.2013-10-16 10.17.052013-10-16 10.18.03

Challenge #139 -Snow
 Our challenge this week is to provide inspiration for those snowy days ahead.   I decided to use the cricut Winter Frolic cartridge and create a card for the holidays.  I cut my snowman at 3 inches and used a Martha Stewart punch for the snowflakes on the first one and a My Creative Time die for the second.  I added stickels to the flakes to give them some sparkle.  I used some KI memories paper that I had in my stash. I think the cards came out cute and plan on making a few more to send to my friends.

Hi all,

I am loving this wonderful weather here in NJ.  I was inspired to create this card for the Fantabulous Cricut Challenge when I watched some neighbor children skateboarding today.  We were to create a card using a form of transportation.  I did not want to do the usual modes of travel so I thought skateboarding would be a great alternative.  Hope you enjoy it.  I used the cricut cartridge Everyday Paper Dolls and CTMH stamp It’s Your Day for the sentiment.
