Frightfully Fun Bat Welcome Sign

Welcome to my cave…. I mean home! This Halloween “Welcome” sign has just enough sparkle and a touch of spooky to be a great addition to my Halloween home decor!

I had some sticks left over from my previous stick spider web project. If you missed that one check it out here. I figured since I had the sticks and black spray paint on hand I should use them!

I first sprayed the sticks black and then hot glued them together to create a creepy fence look.Then using the Happy Hauntings Cricut Cartridge, my Cricut Expression 2 Machine and American Crafts Glitter Paper, I cut out a few bats. They have just the right amount of bling!

For the lettering I cut out 7 glitter squares using my Wescott Paper Cutter and then added the letters “w-e-l-c-o-m-e” which I also cut out using the Happy Hauntings Cartridge. For the lettering I used the new SEI Halloween Paper.

Here is my final project. It is simple but has just enough color and sparkle to make it interesting without going overboard!

SUPPLIES USED:

Cricut Expression 2 Machine

Happy Haunting Cricit Cartridge

SEI Halloween Paper

Black Matte Spray Paint

Hot Glue

I-Bond Cordless Hot Glue Gun

American Crafts Glitter Paper

Wescott Paper Trimmer

Hope you like it!
