Halloween Centerpiece - Day 16

Wow, I am half way done with the 30 Day Challenge (even though I think was suppose to finish up the end of September).  I wish I had more time to work  on my crafts - someday when I win the lotto, that is just what I will do.  If I could only remember to buy that lotto ticket!

This is a centerpiece that I made for my dinning room table.  The base is from Southern Living.  It is the base of the cake holder, turn upside down.  I filled it with a collection of orange and black glas discs, white glass ghosts and black glass bats from Pier 1.  Next i used lollipop sticks from Michaels and used my Cricut to cut out Halloween items.  I cut them at 3.5 inches (height).  I did use my gypsy becasue I needed to duplicated the image and flipped it, so I could glue them "back to back."  This whole project took approximately 30 minutes.
Supplies:
Paper: Glitter paper pack - Fall colors from Joanne's
Googlie eyes from Michaels

Halloween Party Invite - Day 13

Here is the invitation that was sent out to neighbors and close frineds.  I used my gypsy for this project.  I will admit this took me a while to get the design I wanted.  Once I had that, I mass produced the card.  It is easy to cut 25 mummys when using the Cricut!

Supplies used:
All paper was Stampin Up: Basic grey (card was 5.5 x 7); Sahara sand for the tombstones, confidty for the mummy, black for the lamp post, yo yo yellow for the face in the tree and lampost light, close to cocoa for the tree
Stamps: My Pink Stamper - Spooky Puns (Tomb it may concern...) and the bat stamp was out of a dollar bin years ago.
Stampin Up markers - black for spider legs and real red for RIP
Stickles - black for spiders body, Christmas red for mummy's eyes, green for bat's eyes and yellow for the lampost light.
