The Great Pumpkin Hop Day 1

Hi everyone and welcome to the Great Pumpkin Hop!  I am so excited to be a part of this hop and can't wait to see all the fun creations everyone comes up with!  If you arrived here from Theresa, aka The Scrapbooking Queen, you are in the right place!  If you want to start at the beginning to see all the fabulous creations, you can start at Amy's blog, Love to Crop.
For my project, I decided to make another fun Halloween banner for one of my best friends who is coming here to visit this weekend. She has two little girls and I know they will love a cute little banner to hang at their house for Halloween.

The banner was cut using the Cricut Birthday Bash cartridge and I used mandarin twine from the Twinery to string it together. The letters are from the Cricut Carousel cartridge.
 I embossed the folders, this one with a spider web:-)
 My little pumpkin was cut with a Quickkutz die and embossed with a dot embossing plate

 This is an argyle type embossing plate
 I cut out a pumpkin face from the Cricut Pumpkin Carvings cartridge along with some faces for my little pumpkin rosettes to decorate this bag to go along with the gift.
Thank you so much for visiting today! Be sure to check back tomorrow for more some more fun!
Your next stop is Christina at http://cema1cema.blogspot.com.

    The banner with all it's embossing and the pumpkin face bag are both awesome, but I especially love the rosette pumpkins on the bag! I love to see new uses for rosettes, which I love:-) Follower...
