Crazy About Cricut Halloween Hop


Welcome to the MONSTER MASH blog hop sponsored by Crazy About Cricut!  If you just happened upon my blog, you'll want to return to the beginning so that you can be entered to win the fabulous grand prize which is a Scrap N' Tote !!!

In order to be eligible to win this great prize, you'll have to visit and comment on each blogger's MonsterMash project and so here's the line up of blogs you'll be following...











I'm giving away a little prize package of my own as well.  To be entered, all you have to do is become a follower and comment on this post, one comment per person, please :) I'll pick my winner using random.org Monday morning.  Here's what I'm giving away...





Now, onto my project...

Here's a list of the products used:

Bazzil cardstock-Tiara
Recollections Cardstock-Ravenhead Manor (Giveaway item)
Recollections plain cardstock-black
Michael's Celebrate It ribbon
black chalk ink
Stamped Cricut Cartridge
Happy Hauntings Cricut Cartridge
plastic spider buttons from JoAnn's (Giveaway item)
black staples
Orange peel Stickles



First I cut out all my rectangular pieces from the Stamped Cricut cartridge.  Then I crumpled each one up, flattened it, and then went over it with a black ink pad.  I wanted them to look kind of like gravestones and have a spooky feel to them!


Next, I cut the shadow pieces from Recollections black cardstock using my Happy Hauntings Cricut cartridge...this font is just awesome! After cutting all the shadows, I cut the letters from the Ravenhead Manor stack and adhered them to the shadows. I popped all the letters up with pop dots and adhered them to the stone-like shapes.



After that, I started to assemble my banner. I did this by taking my spiderweb-like wired ribbon and stapling it to the back of each shape in an 'x' pattern. I used black staples because I had them and thought they'd look cool, but regular silver staples would have worked, too.




Finally, I adhered these little plastic spider buttons to the banner using glue dots. These spiders I picked up at JoAnn's last week. They are $5.99 for a huge bag of them and they come with four different sizes of spiders and three different sizes of bats. In my giveaway, I'm including a small bag of each, so be sure to enter! After adhering them to the banner, I filled in their eyes with Stickles and let dry.



Here is my banner as it now adorns my kitchen wall. I'm hoping my kids get a kick out of it when they wake up tomorrow morning :)

Thanks for hopping by to see my project! Make sure you leave me a comment and become a follower to be entered into my giveaway and for a chance to win the Grand Prize!

Just click on the monster to go to the next stop. Have a great day and a super spooky Halloween!
