How about a fun, ghoulish card to get this Thursday started?
This Dracula is from the
Cricut Happy Hauntings Shape Cartridge
and was cut at 4" to fit on this 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" card. I used red glitter paper for his cape and shiny silver paper for his face and hands.
I thought about putting red stickles down his chin but it seemed a little too gruesome and I worried I would smear it in my impatience to photograph the card. Good to know yourself...LOL! This "My Favorite Monster" stamp is from the
Punkin Patch stamp set called Trick or Treat. See below:
For the inside of the card, I used another
Punkin Patch stamp set called Little Monsters (see below), as well as the "Happy Halloween" from the Trick or Treat set:

I pop dotted my vampire for the front of the card, after mounting it onto a Spellbinders oval die cut.

Super cute! Joy, I have noticed that sometimes I am unable to pin images from your site (and Everyday Cricut) to Pinterest. Not sure what the glitch is. Maybe it's a Google Chrome thing.

I love this cute Dracula card! I think it would be great with the red stickles. But I smear mine much of the time, too.
Such a cute card. My grandsons would love this. I shall have to try to make a couple even though I already have their cards made. They love getting mail.
Love it!!!!
Love the new cartridges! Can't wait to get them and use! I use my cricut for everything from scrapbooking and card making to school projects and bible school crafts....so many things to do!
Thanks for the good ideas!
Wow love the new cartridges.I use my cricut all the time for cardmaking boards at church and scrapbook pages. The teachers where I work love to have me cut for their boards too.
Your card is really cute.

Great new cartridges! Oh I hope I win Happy Hauntings I so love to have that cartridge. Terrific card with the Count. Thanks for the chance to win.
Gosh - I can't believe all the new cartridges coming out - I love the Ribbon and Rosettes cartridge. I am new at using Cricut and am just loving it. One of the things I struggle with is knowing what each cartridge can do/make. So my best tip right now is when you get the cartridge, take the time to play with it and test out each of the functions and characters. This way you know for sure what can be done with that cartridge - too often, I would use one or two characters only not realizing what else was available. Thanks for all your tips and videos, I love visiting your sites. Claudette saphi@bell.net
Wow, such great cartridges again! Aaaw, I think I want them all:) cute vampire card, tfs!

Love the dracula card! Too cute! I'm new to the cricut so my tip would be just take your time and play with the settings to see how they work. I only own three cartridges so I'm still learning.
My best tip for using my Cricut ... sign up for Everyday Cricut newsletters and get their great tips!!!! LOVE reading your blogs!!
I love, love, love this Halloween one.
So many cartidges...so little time. Each of them is so unique that I don't even know which one I want more.
Joy, your Dracula card is adorable. I love the new cartridges.

I thought it might be nice for newbies if I shared the very first tip I was given when I got my Cricut. That is: Write the word "top" on the protective sheet for your Cricut cutting mat so that you don't accidentally put it upside down on your sticky Cricut mat when you are finished using it.
Great halloween card! TFS!
Glad i am a Circle Member! I love paper Trimmings!
My tip is... Make sure the blade housing setting is facing out. Your cut will be smoother.
Thanks for a chance to win. Edwina Brown edwinabrown@comcast.net
Love this!
Love this card.... and the Cricut cartridges you showed are AMAZING.....LOVE EVERYONE OF THEM!
My best tip is to save every bit of your 'scraps' from cuts. I have an accordion folder by colors. You can piece these together to cut more wonderful things!
Super cute card!
What a fun card, love him!!
