Trick or EEK! Halloween Mantel Decoration

Hi everyone, today I wanted to share with you a Halloween decorating project  I did for the Cricut Circle Blog magazine Challenge.  I used Happy Hauntings, Lacy Labels, and Wall Decor and More. 

I bought some cheap picture frames and M's and using my Gypsy and my Expression, cut the frame for the large picture.  I had to piece it together.  Using Happy Hauntings, I cut the skeleton heads to fill in the blanks around the frame. 

I saw the idea for the glow in the dark eyes on the Martha Stewart website.  I used my expression and cut the eyes, traced around them on the glass with glue and added glitter.  After that dried, I added glow in the dark glitter for the whites. I repeated this for the smaller frame

I bought some cheap nested paper mache coffins at M's and covered the largest with Hocus Pocus from Pink Paislee.  I cut the bats and skeleton using my expression.  I glittered the little bat bodies and the skeleton.

The rat is a dollar store find, and what a find it was.  It Squeeks, an added bonus.  It drives the dog wild. 

I cut the bats in various sizes and used pink rhinestones for their little beady eyes. 

Lacy labes was used for the banner for the circle and the green scalloped backing.  I used Happy Hauntings for the font.  I love this font, this is the first time I used it. 

The spidey cut was great. 

Here is an up close of the coffin

Thanks so much for stopping by today, Beth.
