Mix It Up: Phantom & Twilight

Hey everyone!  Roree here, and today’s post is all about mixing a little past with the present:  Phantom & Twilight.  Twilight is still one of my favorite Halloween collections, and I was so happy to bring it back out and pair it with some of the fun papers and embellishments from the Phantom collection.

When I think of Halloween, I think of treats.  I thought it would be fun to create a cupcake box.  I used my Cricut Expression and Sweet Tooth Boxes cartridge to create the box.  I used patterned paper from the Twilight collection.

I then dressed up the roof line with the ‘Spooky’ sticker from the Phantom collection.

I just love this font!

Next, I created some ghosts using my Cricut Expression and Happy Hauntings cartridge, and patterned papers from both Phantom and Twilight.

I placed one ghost inside and one outside of the box.

Lastly, I created a couple pumpkins using my Cricut Expression and Mini Monsters cartridge.  I used Phantom papers and brads.

So, are you ready for Halloween?  If not, better get moving!  ;)   And if you are still doing some creating before Monday,  don’t forget pull out your older Halloween collections and mix them with the new ones.  It will make them go a lot further.

Hope you all have a Happy (and safe) Halloween!  Thanks so much for stopping by!

Creating with the Cuttlebug

Hey everyone!  Roree here, and today I have a Halloween project to share with you using the Cuttlebug.  I’ve created some Halloween Treat Bags.

I found the black bags at the craft store.  I cut about an 1 1/2″ off the top of each of the bags with pinking shears, so they fit into my Cuttlebug embossing folders.  I embossed them, then I added stickers, brads, chipboard letters, and paper from the Phantom collection to decorate them.

I finished the bags off by adding some shredded paper and candy.  It is a quick and easy way to dress up your Halloween treats.

Hope you enjoyed today’s project.  Thanks so much for stopping by!
