Mini Monsters

Hi Everyone,
Happy Thursday....

Please be patient with me today as I try to redo my blog. I'm going back to my simple look....
Today's card is with the Mini Monsters Cricut Cartridge. This is the cutest cartridge and I love love love the spider. Of course I couldn't pass up the Peachy Keen Monster Mash stamps. I really can't get enough of the Echo Park Papers. They are just so bright and happy....

Here is today's video

Supplies: Mini Monsters Cricut Cartridge, Peachy Keen Monster Mash Stamps, Echo Park Halloween pattern paper, Bazzill Purple and Black cardstock, Paper Trey Ink: Black cardstock, snow white ink,  Orange Zest Swiss Dots Ribbon, ATG, Stampin' Up! Dimensionals

and of course we can't forget the picture:

Have a great day...

cutest little card, I just figured out what I think that orange thing is, I think it's a bowtie for a boy??????? You created a unisex card, just kidding, it's adorable!!!!

Great little spider. The spot that you didn't know what it is looks like a little acordian. Meaning it is a black widow... as long as it's paper it is adorable! Great video.

Cute card, Christina! That little orange thing is supposed to be a red hourglass, which would make the spider a black widow (they have a red hourglass on their bellies).
Thanks for the wonderful inspirations you give us!

Christina I LOVE this card! I actually was just looking at that same cricut cartridge a day ago and thought to myself that I didn't know if I would find many uses for those images so I put it down but I must say that you did a fantastic job once again! I love the color combinations of the papers, the ribbon and the sewing! I have a sewing machine that I've had for about 8yrs now and I have never used it! LOL I do not know how to thread it up or anything but watching you make this card makes me wanna learn real fast LOL
