with a CutCardStock giveaway

It is the witching season, or at least for those that like to dress up as a witch! I am participating in a blog hop for Fall-oween with CutCardStock. There is a giveaway so make sure to read all the way through this post. I created this witchy card for the hop. The SVG file will be shared with you so you can make your very own card. I don’t know who you will send your card to, but I know this one is perfect for my sister!

Many of the items I use in posts are provided by the manufacturers to promote their products.
A special thanks to those brands who sponsor this site.

The papers I used were actually scraps from projects past. Here is the list of colors I used from CutCardStock, the links are affiliates:

With a bit of adjustment to the file in Design Space, the Cricut Maker works its magic to cut all the colored cardstock in one go.

Now that everything is cut and weeded, it’s time to put it all together. Watch the video tutorial for all the tips and tricks.

Pumpkin Mandala Card

Follow along and make this pumpkin mandala for fall, Halloween, or Thanksgiving. It is so versatile it works for card making or home decor. #sponsored #cutcardstock

with printable and free SVG

Today I am using an SVG file to create a Pumpkin Mandala Card. This design works well for Halloween, Fall, or Thanksgiving. I’ve used the mandala for a card but you could make it larger for a beautiful decor piece. Or just framing the card would be nice too.

Orange, brown, and gold card stocks are being featured this month on CutCardStock. I am using Cosmic Or ange and Stardream Metallic Card Stock in Bronze. I really like the iridescent quality of the Stardream card stocks.

I cut the CutCardStock on a Cricut Maker. The Cosmic Orange was cut at 100# and the Metallic Bronze was cut twice at 100#. While the mat is still in the Maker, just hit the go button again.

Materials:

CutCardStock papers (linked above)
Distress Oxide ink pads
blending brushes
adhesive
rhinestones

Glow in the Dark | Halloween Card

This month I am participating in a Halloween video blog hop. I created the card above for the hop and I am sharing the cutting files free (links below). The unique quality of this card is that the spider web glows in the dark.

I used my Cricut Maker to cut the black cardstock and the clear overhead projector sheet. I had some trouble finding the right setting for the overhead plastic, I ended up using the Cricut mat cover sheet setting and adding more pressure. The finished folded card is 6″ x 4″

Some items used in this post have been provided.

Materials:

black cardstock
white cardstock – 8″ x 6″
overhead projector sheet
glow in the dark paint
paintbrush
adhesive
Xyron
heat gun (optional)
personal cutting machine (Cricut Maker)
free cut files (linked below)

Directions:

The file contains both cut images. [cut file]
To download the file, click on the text in the brackets above, the image will open in a new window.
Right-click the image and save as an SVG file.

Video Tutorial:

Well, glow in the dark photographs blurry, but here is a close-up of the web.
