TRICK OR TREAT!!!

Hello fellow crafters!! Sorry I missed last week's project, I was in Texas for work. While I was there I had a chance to visit the Texas State Fair!! SOOO much fun!!! And lots of fried food....YUUUMM!!!

Here's a picture of some of my co-workers and me at the fair! I'm the tall one without the hat. The hat makers were working hard to glue on the Rhinetones as I waited!!! HEHEHE


While working in Texas my company introduced a new recognition program and I WON IT!!!! So it turned out to be a pretty great trip!! Although, I found myself thinking a few times, "I wish I brought my Cricut with me!" Hehehe


SOOO on to why you all came here....the project!!! This week for Regina at The Cutting Cafe we again had three files to choose from; Halloween Trio Printable Stamp SetA Bunch of Monsters Printable Stamp Set or Crazy Candy Corn Printable Stamp Set. I choose to work with the Crazy Candy Corn Set. I just LOVE IT!!!!



Now I changed it up a bit! I converted the candy corn mummy .pdf to an SVG file and loaded it into SCAL2. I enlarged it, flipped it and welded it... and VOILA.... a Halloween Card!!! I can't get over how cute this printable stamp set is and how much fun it was to work with!! I also converted the candy corn bat into SCAL2 and put him on a "leash." Don't want him to fly away!!! Now the boys are ready to go Trick or Treating!!!


Of course, the printable stamp set came with some super cute sentiments! I choose to use, "I know it's kinds corny, but I'm batty for you!" How cute!?!


In the mummy's other hand I added a Trick or Treat bag for some good candy stash!! I found this in the Pazzles Craft Room.


Here's the inside!


I hope you enjoy the card as much as I enjoyed making it!! Regina, I just LOVE your files!! They are SOOO much fun to work with!!!

  2. Oh Sean, this is just sooooooo adorable. I love the little batty guy suspended on his "leash" so he doesn't fly away. Congrats on your company award, too.

  3. Congrats on your work award, Sean! Love that Ferris wheel in the background of the picture. And your card? Adorable!!! How do you convert a PDF to an SVG? You've got me stumped on that one. Must be the software you use. I wonder if I can do that with Silhouette Designer Edition? That card is worthy of scrap lifting. Trying to figure out how......
