BOO!!

BOO!!  It is L.B. from Cool Beans By L.B. Halloween is so so close and it is one of my favorite holidays.  I think I love the dressing up and trick or treating part the most, but also this year I am loving the papers I have found and bought...way to many of them. I made some treats for coworkers and had a bunch of scraps leftover and did not want the paper to go to waste so I snipped and "welded" them together with some decorative tape to create a base for these cards.
The first step was picking my papers and getting them where on wanted on my cards. After I cut and layered I wanted to secure the edges, but did not feel ribbon was the answer so I used this black and white polka dot tape to do it instead.
The next step was selecting the right Cricut Cut to put on top of my card. I went with the cauldron cut on Mini Monsters because I loved the bubbles. When layered with the "Boo!" also from Mini Monsters it looked just right.
A touch of Stickles for my bubbling pot and I had 2 fun cards to send out. I hope you are all having a wonderful Spooky season and a great day as well. Thanks for visiting us at Cricut FANatics.  I am so glad to be part of this great team.
