Cricut 360 Spooky Halloween Blog Hop

Hi there! Welcome to Stacey's Creative Corner and the Cricut 360 Spooky Halloween Blog Hop! I'm so glad that you decided to hop along with us! If you have come from Barb's Blog aka Bug Bites then you are in the right place! If you've just happened across my blog and would like to play along with our Spooky Halloween Blog Hop, start at the beginning at Cricut 360.

Make sure to check out each DT member's blog for some awesome inspiration and collect the key words to reveal this weeks challenge. There will be prizes along the way at some of the DT members' blogs, AND a grand prize from Cricut 360, a Freshly Picked Cricut cartridge. How fun is that?




Just link up your project over at Cricut 360 for a chance to win the grand prize!

Ok, onto my project. For my project, I decided to make a door sign to hang out on Halloween! This is my first time making a door sign and I am really pleased with how it came out.

Here is a picture of the door sign:




and a closeup of some of the detail:




Cute huh? This is how I made it. I took took pieces of 8.5" by 11" pieces of chipboard and glued them together to make it really sturdy. Then I started decorating the front. I took a piece of white card stock and attached it to the chipboard and sprayed it with some Raven glimmer mist. I cute my witch's hat out of Mini Monsters Cricut Cartridge at 6.25". Once I had my hat cut out, I free hand cut a shape to resemble a witch's head peeking up from the bottom of the sign. Her eyes are hand drawn. Not my best but it gets the point across haha! For my Spider, I cut him out of Doodlecharms at 3". I added some googly eyes and some doodling for a little interest. My "Boo" was cut out of Don Juan At 2.5". After I had everything cut out and attached to the front of the sign, I added some eyelets and threaded my ribbon through for the hanger. I then flipped it over and added some Black Crepe Streamers, to give it the look of some ruffled ribbon. It was so simple to make but I absolutely love it!
