Sophisticated Halloween in Minutes With Your Cricut

One of my favorite and most versatile staple for parties is my French Wire Tiered Stand It can be taken apart and each piece used separately.

This weekend I was playing around a bit and made the most sophisticated and simple tray liners using my CTMH Cricut Art Philosohy Cartridge. As you can see, this went along great with the mask I made and the candle wraps which are featured in part 2 of this post.

I used the basic scallop shape. Then I pressed the same key, chose the Decorative Layer Function Key while using the Shift Key to get the funky design. It cut it at the same size keep in mind. It made it so easy!

Here I used the design that was left on the mat, also known as the negative space. I LOVE using leftovers and really have a hard time throwing those scraps away.

To adhere the 2 pieces together I chose an adhesive spray. You could use whatever you have available.

Once the 2 pieces were glued together I cut an “X” in the middle of the shape so it would easily slide over the pole. It was so easy.

PROJECT TIP: If your stand does not come apart, just cut a slit from the outer edge of the scallop liner to the middle point. Then you can wrap it around the post in the center and it will lay flat.

Supplies Used:
Mischief Level 2 Paper Pack ( could use any elegant Halloween paper)
Grey Wool Cardstock
CTMH Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge

FINISHING TOUCHES: I thread some ribbon through the openings. What I really wanted to use was black glittery tulle. However, that is fun of how I create. I use what I have in my crafting arsenal. I can always add more to it later.

Can you just imagine the possibilities for other holidays, birthdays and many other occasions!? You could even laminate your liners and use again year after year. I would suggest clear contact paper for laminating. It is super inexpensive. I know that from my preschool days.

Now, I just need to whip up some goodies and fill these trays up.
