Happy Halloween!

It's that time of year when we can get goofy and dress up in all sorts of strange outfits. Kids especially enjoy the excitement of going house to house to show off their costumes and to collect candy.

I made these shapes for a friend of mine who teaches Grade 2 to use as classroom decorations. The large tree was cut from the Stretch Your Imagination Cricut cartridge with some of the leaves were outlined with sparkly Stickles. The spider web also received sparkly Stickles after being cut from the Designer's Calendar Cricut cartridge. I found the cute butterflies on the Gypsy Wanderings Cricut cartridge and again added Stickles for shimmer. The ghost and skeleton shapes were cut using the Paper Dolls Cricut cartridge.

In addition, each student got their own pumpkin to decorate at school and add their name to it. This image came from the Wrap It Up Cricut cartridge.

My Goofy Pumpkins

Cooler weather is right around the corner and so is Halloween. Cricut Cardz Challenge #42 which started on Wednesday, September 15th invites you to make a Halloween card using your choice of cartridge and any color.

I made this card and I call it My Goofy Pumpkins. I started with a linen textured orange Bazzill card stock to which I added some stripped paper from K & Company as well as the large Halloween stamp image in the top left corner. I then cut out different sized pumpkins using my Stretch Your Imagination cartridge. They all look so cute leaning up against each other. I topped the card off by adding a simple bow in polka dots. I hope you like it.

Why not head over to Cricut Cardz Challenge and see what everyone else is making. See you there!
