Welcome to my part of Nicolette's Mom's Day Blog Hop. If you're following along the hop, you should have come here from Jamie's blog. I had a different, more involved, project in mind when I started thinking about what I wanted to do for the hop, but ended up running out of time to finish it. So, these are my "back-up" projects. The tea cup and coffee cup are both from the Cricut Tags, Bags, Boxes and More 2 cartridge. These were my first attempts and I can see where they need a little "adjusting," but turned out okay.

Thanks for stopping by to see my Day Two projects for Nicolette's Ghosts and Goblins blog hop. If you jumped in here, click on Nicolette's link to start at the beginning to see everyone's wonderful projects. You should have come here from Robin . I should have started earlier working on Halloween projects. I am having too much fun and can't seem to stop myself! My kids, ages 20, 18 and 14, are old enough they don't have school Fall parties anymore. One of my favorite things for all school parties is making goodies for them to pass out to their classes. Luckily, I have an adorable nephew who calls me "Favorite Aunt Jackie" who I can make goodies for. I keep telling my sister he's my grandma practice. I used SVG Cuts ' Midnight Jamboree kit to cut these vintage-looking black cat faces. The bags are just the cheap ol' brown paper lunch sacks that I bought on sale awhile back. I rolled the tops down and put shredd...
