The Week of 'BOOs'

I hope you are enjoying these charmingly creepy projects this week! Here is another of our HoneyBees with a fun banner for welcoming the little ghosts and goblins to your haunted mansion!

You can never have enough 'BOOs' during the Halloween season!! Considering the busy week I am having, it was easier to make this cute little BOO wall hang than to bring out my boxes of Halloween decorations. Not having any chipboard, I used those card stocks that we all have in our stash that we just had to have two years ago, but never used. By using my Base Camp cartridge, it was easy enough to cut 4 of each letter at 3 1/2 inches with my Cricut machine. The 5th cut was the Halloween card stock I wanted to use for my project. I love my Crop-A-Dial! How easy it was to punch holes for my black ribbon, 'tieing' it all together. The spiderweb and spider were cut with my Cricut October 31st cartridge, ghosts were done with a Sizzix die then chalked with gray and the bats from my Martha Stewart punch. Red Smooch was used for the bats eyes and orange for the spider. Black fringed yarn was then wrapped around to give it more dimension.

Well, by now I know you must have figured out that I am a little "batty" and I have another bat tutorial for you! However, Blogger is being haunted by gremlins tonight, and refuses to let me upload any more photos! B-O-O!!! So, I will wait and do another post for you later in the day :)
Hahahaha, Blogger, we will be Treated, Not Tricked!
Until later!
Happy creating ~
