 Here is my project for you today! I made an advent calendar for my little boys. It has pockets to tuck in little toys or treats or you can take a little puppet on a Popsicle stick and move it to each pocket. I made the black background with just yardage of felt material from Joann's that was on sale for 50% off so it was only a couple dollars =D I purchased some Halloween theme wooden pins to attach to some of the pockets. I used the " All Mixed Up" Cricut cartridge to create the numbers. I used Little Scraps of Heavens "Its on the calendar October" to cut out the title all with felt. I used the "Hello Kitty" Cricut Cartridge to cut the title Happy Halloween"

Thank you so much for hopping by to see my Halloweeny project =D I have a fanpage on Facebook and would love for you to come by and "like" my page and keep in touch!

My project for today is a witch hat that I altered. I found the chipboard hat at Michael's and decorated with K and Company's "Ghostly Greetings" specialty paper. To make the cone shape on my pattern paper I used a party hat svg cutting file that I found free on line.

For my Haunted house project...I had fun creating this 3d paper piecing Haunted house. I bought this black plastic bin at the dollar section at Target. I created this as a gift to give to my son's teacher when we have the class Halloween party. I plan to have a gift tucked in. The trees where from the "spooky" collection over at Treasure Box Designs.

Thank you so much for hopping on by my haunted house!

My First Halloween Card

Today I made my first Halloween card. The paper was used from the DCWV Halloween Stack and I paper pieced my own witch. 

Halloween Banner For Fireplace Mantel

 My son Jayden who is in Kindergarten helped me make this banner. I had him help me with the orange paper rosettes....folding the paper like you do a paper fan back and forth. He had so much fun doing this. 

I then used my Cricut Cartridge Accent Essentials for the scallop circle and for the letters on "Spooky" I used the cart Printing Press. The Spider web is an svg file that I made and will share it with you on the next post...stay tuned =) Happy Creating!

Pumkin Craft Using Dryer Vent Ducting

Materials:

• 4" flexible vinyl ducting (like they use to vent dryers and appliances)
• white works better than metal...I used the metal because I couldn't find the white at my Home Depot
• a 20 foot length of it will make 18 - 2' pumpkins but I made 3 large pumpkins with mine
• scissors
• hot glue gun/ glue
    
• orange, high gloss spray paint
    
• green and brown felt for the leaves and stem
          
• wire cutters (note: I had to use a branch cutter to cut the wire it took a little work lol)

Instructions 

• pre cut the vinyl ducting into 24 inch sections (you will need scissors to cut through the vinyl, then a wire cutter to snip the middle wire apart)
• Using orange high gloss spray paint, lightly coat the entire pumpkin.
• Let dry 30 minutes.
• Then use hot glue gun to secure pumpkin closed
•  I then used the hot glue gun to glue the felt leaves and stem
