Flirty Cards using the Artiste
Here are two cards I made using the New Artiste Cricut Cartridge paired with the flirty paper. The stamps used are part of the Artiste Bundle and can not be purchased separately.

Pumpkin Carving
The boys are so excited to carve pumpkins every year. Now that they want cooler designs, it ends up that mommy and daddy do all the carving. This year they figured out that you could project the images on the wall with lights out and had a blast doing it. The kit we used to carve them came with all the tools and was purchased at Michaels last year after the Halloween season.

Costume Party Fun
Every year our bible study has a costume party. We used all the games from yesterday's post. Sometimes the adults dress up, but we never have. This year was a different story. We had so much fun and Renee and I made sock skeletons for each of the children. This was a big feat, considering I do not sew. It took me 2 hours just to thread my sewing machine and that is not an exaggeration.
So on to the sock skeletons. We made 17. Here is the link to Martha Stewart's version. I had to simplify it a little due to my decreased skill level.

The skeleton bodies resembled molars more than anything else.

Cohen's Fall Party Ideas
I am a room parent for my kindergartener this year. We just had the non-Halloween fall party. Thanks to the Internet with all the great ideas, the party was a big hit. We had 4 stations.
1) pumpkin bowling
2) candy cornacopia
This craft was super simple. All you needed was some bulk candy, a Baggie, some ribbon, and a sugar cone. You put a small amount of candy in the corner if the bag, then scoop in into the cone, and tie it off.
3) musical pumpkins
This is just like musical chairs, except you stand on cut out pumpkins instead. I cut the pumpkins from the Happy Hauntings cricut cartridge fit to page and then laminated.
4) pumpkin balloon bop
This was a class favorite. I purchased orange balloons at party city. I used the Happy Hauntings cartridge to cut out jack-o-latern faces. I used the negatives as a stencil and a sharpie marker to draw the faces on. The object is just to keep your balloon in the air by bopping it.
