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.

The Never Ending Happy Hauntings Card

Hi Everyone!  This is Erika from EKittyscraps.blogspot.com.  I can't believe it is October and we are starting the second month of this wonderful blog.

Today I have a never ending card for Halloween to show you.  Since there are a lot of you tube videos and internet instructions out there for never ending cards, I skip the making of the card base.  I will give you a few tips:  you will need a 12" piece of cardstock, a scoring tool and double sided tape.  I recommend terrifically tacky tape.  Try to keep your decorations on the flat side so the card doesn't get to thick. 

It didn't take long to make the card base and most of the time is used to decorate the card.  The fun part of it!  So here it is:

Here are the cuts from the Happy Hauntings cartridge.

I cut these at 2.5 inches except for the witch that was cut a two inches.

This was a fun card to make for Halloween and would be a good card to make for a special occassion.  This was my first never ending card and it definately won't be my last.  I hope you like it.

Here are the supplies I used:
