Trick or Treat Banner



For my first project I used Country Life and Teddy Bear Parade to make my "Trick or Treat" Banner for my fireplace mantel. I love Halloween and don't have much inside cuteness, most of it is outside. So I decided to make some Halloween items for my house.

Here is a picture of my banner

This picture is kinda far, but every time I got closer the picture came out blurry, 
I think it's time for a new camera  :)



Up close picture of the word "Trick" 
I love DCWV paper!!




Cute little bear from Teddy Bear Parade


Here are the details of my banner:

I cut the banners from Country Life
at 5"
I used Happy Hauntings Font 
in various sizes to fit the banners

Teddy Bear Parade for the Witch Bears
cut at 2.5"
For my next project I made a Police Graduation  Card for our friends Son who just graduated from the Police Academy :)



The card is a 6x6
I used a dark blue then added a lighter blue for depth
The policeman is from Everyday Paper Dolls and  cut out at 5"
and I used Peachy Keen Everyday Character Face Stamp
I used a stamp that I bought from Michael's for the inside sentiment, sorry it's blurry. I need a new camera badly!! It's going on my Christmas List!!

For my last project I made 6 "BOO" gift cones for my friends. I am going to fill them with treats and leave them on their front doors with the "BOO" poem :)


I used Winter Woodland for the cones
I cut the cones out at 9.5"
added ribbon to the inside for a handle
I cut a 12 x 1 1/2" piece of paper and scored it every 1/4" to make a rosette.

Pumpkin box using Sweet Tooth Cartridge


I saw on Pinterest that some talented lady made a pumpkin out of the Sweet Tooth Cartridge and since I love anything having to do with Pumpkins, I wanted to make one for me!! Yes, ME!! I always seem to make things for friends and this time I made something for ME!!! :)


I LOVE how it turned out :)



Who knew the Ice Cream topper on the Sweet Tooth Cart could make so many things besides a Ice Cream :)

I cut Conely1 out at 9.5
I cut Conely 2 out at 11.61

I used the red tacky tape to adhere the box

I used the Thanksgiving Cartridge for the Pumpkin stem and vines

Cut 2 stems out at 4.5

and the leaves and vines were cut out at 1.5" x 4.889"
and another vine cut out at  1.75" x 5.708"

Halloween card


I LOVE Halloween, it is my second favorite Holiday. First being Christmas :) 
I saw this cute little card on Pinterest and knew right away I could make this using my Cricut Imagine.  I love the versatility of this machine! You can print your own paper, and choose different colors for you images :) For instance you can take a cartridge and instead of putting brown paper in for a mouse, you can print the mouse in any color you want!!

Anyway's here is my Boo! Halloween card


The paper is from K & C ~ Ghostly Greetings. I just love this paper!!
The trees are printed in black using the Frightful Affair Cartridge
The Boo! sentiment is also from the Frightful Affair Cartridge, but I used Snapshot Nature to print the color for the Boo!

Trees are cut out at 2.5" & 3"
The Boo! is cut out at 1"
I added googly eye's to the trees, instead of "Hills have eyes" I call it the "Trees have eyes" haha!
The Spooky ribbon on the bottom is actually TAPE!! I think this is the greatest thing, and it's thick!!

Ghost House


 Today I wanted to make a cute haunted house using the Sweet Tooth Cartridge





I cut the house out at 10" 
I used my left over Halloween paper from a stack I bought at Micheal's 
I inked everything 
The stamped sentiment is from PBD
and the cute little Ghosts are from the new Create A Critter 2 cartridge at 2"
I added velum to the windows and will fill it with a candy and an electric candle
