Hi everyone! Today I will be working on my Halloween candybar wrappers! Pictures will be posted later tonight. I love my cricut and my Mini Monsters Cartridge is so far my favorite! I recently went back home to Arizona for a wedding and brought some card making supplies and introduced my mom and sister to the cricut! I made The cards from my previous post and premade a kit for them to make some with me while we were there! It was fun! Now I am making candybar wrappers for my co-workers and a few friends!
I've been tirelessly cutting with the cricut yesterday and today to get all my monsters cut! I'm still new at this so I'm still figuring out sizing and the best types of cardstock for the cricut ( I've discovered a new love for Bazzill Basics for cutting in the cricut just FYI)
I purchased a box of Hersey's milk chocolate (36 count) at Costco and will be wrapping them and blinging them out!
I measured and the first layer of the wrapper should be 5 1/2 inches by 6 inches. It will overlap on the back.
The second layer is 2 1/2 inches by 5 1/2/ inches.
I used a patterned paper for te 1st layer and a solid coordinating paper for the second.
Once I have all my monsters cut, glued and decorated I will add them with a pop dot/ foam adhesive to the second layer. You can then add ribbon anywhere you want. You may also want to add ribbon first then your monster. It's all up to you!
So I will post the photos this evening when I am hopefully caught up on this project!
Thanks for reading!
