Halloween Front Entrance Decor with Cricut

Hello, and almost Happy Halloween to you all!  Today I have some Cricut® (Sponsored) Made DIY Halloween crafts to share with you that I used to create this Halloween Porch Scape or Front Entrance Decor. I hope you like.


To create this Handmade Halloween Decor I used several props from the Dollar store as a base.  I then made the rest of the parts with my Cricut Maker™.  I had fun using a variety of cutting materials and accessories.

Cricut Maker Machine
Cricut Maker™, "The Ultimate Smart Cutting Machine." Can be used with a variety of tools and cuts several types of materials.

To begin, take a look at the Halloween Cat Pumpkins I made with Dollar Store carvable foam pumpkins!

To make this all I did was paint the Foam pumpkin, applied a tattoo and made some ears out of 12 in. x 12 in. Glitter Cardstock in Black "Cricut™". With the Maker™,   I used the Adhesive Cutting Mat Standard Grip 12 in. x 12in. "Cricut™", and a Standard Blade and Housing for Maker™ "Cricut" to cut out two triangles. I chose to make the cat ears using a triangle shape twice in the Cricut Design Space™.  I first scored the paper with the Scoring Wheel Housing and Wheel for Maker™ "Cricut™". At the last minute, I chose to round off the pointy ears with some scissors.

After the paint was dry, and the tattoo applied I cut some slits into the top sides of each pumpkin using the Scoring Wheel Housing and Wheel for Maker™ "Cricut™", and inserted each Cat ear.  I also used some hot glue to secure each ear in place.


Next, I made some spider webs!  Using the 12in. x 12in. Cardstock in Black "Cricut™", a Adhesive Cutting Mat Standard Grip 12 in. x 12in. "Cricut™" and the Standard Blade and Housing for Maker™ "Cricut".  I chose a Spider Web Banner in Cricut Design Space™ and used the Maker™ to create and cut.



The third creation I have to share is the Scaredy Cat Window Cling.


To make two of these I chose a Cat image in Cricut Design Space™ that I enlarged to 15 inches in height.  Using the Adhesive Cutting Mat Standard Grip 12 in. x 24 in. "Cricut™" and Vinyl Window Cling in Black "Cricut™" I proceeded to have the Maker™ cut one cat with Mirror Image off, and the second cat with Mirror Image on.  So, the cats could be facing each other. To cut the window cling I used the Standard Blade and Housing for Maker™ "Cricut".   

List of materials:

12 in. x 12 in. Glitter Cardstock in Black "Cricut™"
