Halloween Card

Just a quick peek at a Halloween card I made for the cricut challenge over at Scraps of Color.  This was the second part of the October challenge on the cricut lovers message board.

I used orange textured cardstock for the card base and the same cardstock for the embossed overlay.  I used the spiderweb folder to emboss the image with my cuttlebug and raised it up with foam dots.  I added a little interest with distress ink just to make the spider web show up a little.  The images were cut with my cricut from the October 31 seasonal cartridge.  It's hard to see in this picture, but I popped up the jack-o-lanterns.  I chose an orange striped pattern paper from DCWV fall stack from a couple years back and anchored it with brads.  Then, I finished it off with some ribbon that I picked up at Walmart.

I have another project I'm working on with the October 31 cartridge that I will share in a day or so.  More Halloween fun coming up!

Halloween Timspiration

I love Halloween just like everyone else.  The costumes, the candy, and Tim Holtz inspiration...or Timspiration for short.  Tim posted some spooky goodies on his blog just in time for Halloween crafting season.  I especially love these.  For more yummy "creative trickery", hop over and check out Tim Holtz blog.
