A Halloween BOO! with Peachy Keen Stamps

Hey Friends!!  Today on the Peachy Keen Stamps blog I to share a cute Halloween project with you.  Did you enjoy the latest release this week on the blog??  I know I am full of inspiring ideas for the upcoming fall/Halloween season, so much so that I created this super fun plaque with the newest Happy Haunting Ghosts and Spider and Web sets from Peachy Keen Stamps......

I found this wooden plaque (it measures approx 9 1/2 inches by 6 3/4 inches) at one of the big craft stores and painted it black, the covered it with some green diamond paper with Mod Podge.  I cut out the BOO! on my Cricut three different times.....twice with chipboard and then once with the black cardstock.  Before adhering them all together, I stamped and embossed it in clear with the spider web stamp from the Spider Web set.  I then adhered these layers together and set it aside to dry.

I then stamped these three darling ghosts and their faces onto white cardstock and then cut them out.  I placed them where I wanted them onto my BOO! and then adhered it all down to the plaque.  I added some matching green ribbon to the plaque with a staple gun and then tied some little black bows where the ribbon meets the plaque.

There is a great sale going on with the new release sets this week.....you can check out all the details on the Peachy Keen Stamps website.  Thanks for stopping by!!

Hugs,
Amy

  5. Amy,

    I absolutely LOVE this!!! :)

    Which Cricut cartridge did you use to cut out the Boo? And your Cricut can handle the chip board? Oh, I can't wait to try it!

    Thanks so much for sharing,

    1. Yes Jennifer, I have cut lots of chipboard on my Cricut machines. I use the deep cut blade and multi-cut depending on how thick the chipboard is.
