Bitten By The Bug 2 - Halloween Challenge
I may or may not be burned out with Halloween, and it's not even here yet...Uh Oh! Just kidding!!! And as I am finding out with my little boy getting older, Halloween isn't just one day - it's basically Halloween WEEK!!! And it's no different over at BBTB2!!! We are celebrating all things Halloween this week and want to see all your fabulous projects that use our favorite machine - The Cricut!!! Well, it's my favorite, anyway :) For my project I pulled out my Stretch Your Imagination cart and cut this fun little spider (who I think is tap dancing). I also wanted to play around a little with him because he seems like he should be free to move around on the card. I didn't want to use an Action Wobble, don't get me wrong, I LOVE Action Wobbles, but I wanted something with more freedom. So he's a spider, right? and spiders have webs, right? So why not dangle him from a web string? And that's just what I did. I attached him to some embroidery floss and let him go! You can't get the full effect from the pics, but hopefully I have captured enough for you to get the idea. My paper comes from an All Seasons pack and I did use some glitter paper for his top hat, "jacket", and tap shoes. The mat that he is on was cut from Elegant Edges along with a shadow. The stamps are from a couple of Studio G $1 sets. I think it turned out pretty cute for ALMOST being burned out with Halloween projects for the year :) I will also be linking this up at the Halloween party going on over at Cardz TV. I hope that you will show off your tricks or treats with us at BBTB2 and that you have a FANTASTIC Halloween WEEK!!!
