#174 Create a Critter 2 - Halloween Frame

Hi everyone!  Here is a project I created for challenge number three in the Canadian Cricut Circle Swarm.  The challenge was to create a home décor piece using Cricut cut flowers and chipboard.

 

 

I used Mod Podge to glue patterned paper to a plain wooden frame from Ikea.
The cartridges I used are Art Philosophy for the flowers, Trick or Treat for the Scary title, and Create a Critter 2 for the bat.  The scary title was cut from chipboard first, then covered in paper using the same cut.

#169 Trick or Treat - Canadian Cricut Circle Swarm Challenge #1

Hi everyone!  The first challenge for the Canadian Cricut Circle Swarm is to create a Halloween themed home decor item.  I just got the Trick or Treat cartridge and was pretty excited to use it! I decided to create a banner using the different kids in their Halloween costumes.

I used the Cricut Craft Room to weld each character to a letter.  The kids were all sized at 3.5" and the letters, from Fontopia, were sized at 2.5".
I welded the base layer of the child to the shadow of the letter, then built the other layers from there.
Each letter was cut from purple cardstock, then glittered with sugar plum glitter by Martha Stewart Crafts.
Here are some of the children close up:
