Trick or Treat Wall Decor - Part 2

This is my favorite photo of the whole front. You can see all the elements. I described the elements of the monsters in my last post. In this post I will share the rest of the details. Behind the mosters is a rickety fence. It is from PDDU. First I used the Cricut markers on it and then I cut it.

The paper I used for the background is from a stack I got a Michael's. It has some vinyl on it. I backed it with orange and then black again. I used the newest Martha Stewart spiderweb punches to make a border all the way around the page. I love the effect this has.

There is also a cute little spider and web on the right hand side of the page. It is from the Slice also. I inked the web just a bit so it wasn't super bright. There are some ghosts on the other side of the page and I inked those the same way. I also used a silver glitter pen on those so all their features could be seen.

This wonderful file was created by Tina Mansfield of Cardiology Creations. The bat is not a part of the file. The file comes in a few different parts. It cuts very easily. I cut the candy corn bases, parts of the candy and the "TRICK OR TREAT" out of DCWV glitter cardstock. The yellow is just a regular cardstock. I tied bows around the candy. I also inked the edges around the candy corn with a Cats Eye ink pad in orange. The bat hanging from the title is from the Slice card Spellbound. I embellished him with a both the clear and orange glitter pens.

The circle moon is from the Slice card Basics 1. I added a slivered moon on top of it cut from DCWV glitter paper. It is from the PDDU cart. I embellished with an orange glitter pen. The bats are also from the Slice. The design card is Spellbound. I love that the Slice has 2 great design cards with alphabets on them! These bats have been embellished with the clear glitter pen.

I think that's it! TFL! Comments are greatly appreciated!

Halloween Skull Card

The Spongebob Cricut cart has some great gems on it! One of them that I found was this skull. It is a great cut for Halloween. I have also found that I really like Core'dinations paper line.

For this card I used a K & Co. Halloween paper pad for the patterned paper. I backed that with a purple-ish frame. I cut a few sizes of circles (sorry, I cant' remember what sizes ): ). The skull is from the Spongebob Squarepants cart. It is one of the feature keys and doesn't have a shadow feature, so I used Design Studio and made my own shadow. It is not a perfect shadow, but it worked for what I needed. I used Core'dinations Black Magic paper behind the skull and embossed it with the Cuttlebug Distressed Stripes embossing folder and then sanded it so the purple under the black could be seen.

The smaller circle is cut on the Cricut and then embossed with Cuttlebug from the set called "Stitched Circles" and sanded. The "Happy Halloween" is cut with SCAL.

The crows on both the front and back are from the MM Slice card Spellbound. On the front I cut the crow 3 times and layered one on top of the other to make it look thicker. The ribbon is from Target.

On the inside I just used a matching purple cardstock and used the Martha Stewart Spiderweb corner punch to give it a little pizazz.

On the back I used the Martha Stewart Drippy Goo punch and then layered with a matching piece of patterned paper. I added a matching circle and crow to finish it off. TFL!

Happy Halloween Spider Card

I am feeling really "Halloween-ie" these days, so I decided to make a card for the holiday. This card is 8 1/2" x 5 1/2". It is not a size I have used alot in my card making, but I am starting to, and I think I like it.

For the card base I used a piece of black 8 1/2" x 11" cardstock and folded it in half. On the front I glued down a piece of purple cardstock as a base layer. On the bottom of the purple layer I used the Marthat Stewart Drippy Goo punch. The next layer on the front is a funky and fuzzy bright green and black spider paper by K & Co. I made it a bit smaller and placed it off center so I could add the title on the left. The title and spider are made with the Cricut cart Lyrical Letters. My favorite part of the front is the spider web. It is made with the Cuttlebug Spiderweb embossing folder and Core' denations paper. I embossed the paper and then sanded the top until the white showed through.

The inside left is the same funky and fuzzy and fun spider paper from the front. The right side is more Lyrical Letters. "Happy" and "To You" are from that cart. The Top Note design is also from that cart. The "BOO!" is from the Slice machine Spellbound design card. The photo corners are an EK Success punch. The paper used on the corners and the Top Note cut are the flip side of the spider paper (it is double sided). The back is that same paper. Thanks for looking! Please let me know what you think.
