Bag Topper Halloween Projects with Anita

Hi Everyone:

Happy Halloween week.  I fell in love with these adorable Halloween bag toppers that Lori shared last week.  They are the easiest project I have ever made!  The whole file is a print and cut project.  It took me no time at all to create these five cute favors for my friends.  If you need a last minute party idea or gift for a special someone, then these should be your go to item.  They are called Bag Topper Halloween and I used the following  five of the eight that are available.  You can buy them as a bundle here in Lori’s store, or individually with the links below.

Haunted House     Lori’s store     Silhouette store
Ghost     Lori’s store     Silhouette Store
Dog     Lori’s store     Silhouette Store
Witch     Lori’s store     Silhouette Store

That’s it for me today.  Thanks for looking and have a great week.

Have you seen the new Bag Topper Halloween Bundle?  Such a fun and easy way to package up a small treat!  They are perfect for parties and the classroom!

These bags are created using the Print and Cut feature of your Cutting machine which makes them a breeze to make!  (I have a print and cut tutorial for Silhouette here and Cricut here)  You can fit 2 on one 8.5″x11″ paper!  The only piecing is adding the cute character to the bag!  They work with 3″ treat bags which are widely available at craft and party stores.In addition to the bundle, each of the bags are also sold individually in both my shop and in the Silhouette Store.  There are 8 fun designs including the Halloween Haunted House (SVG, Silhouette), Halloween Witch (SVG, Silhouette), Halloween Skeleton (SVG, Silhouette), Halloween Dog (SVG, Silhouette), Halloween Pumpkin (SVG, Silhouette), Halloween Mummy (SVG, Silhouette), Halloween Owl (SVG, Silhouette) and the Halloween Ghost (SVG, Silhouette)

3D Witch Hat Tutorial with Brigit

Hello there, today I’m sharing a tutorial on this 3D witch hat project. This hat can also be purchased from the Silhouette Design Store here and also as a set in the 3D Halloween Bundle from Lori’s shop.

This is such a cute home decor piece to add to your Halloween collection, I really love how it came out.

The first thing I did was add all the pieces onto my mat in Silhouette Studio, this included the 3D Chrysanthemum Flower, (Silhouette Studio chrysanthemum). You will need 6 duplicates of the triangle layer and 2 duplicates of the hat top. I used patterned paper from Doodlebug Design’s Pumpkin Party  I did a release compound path on the triangle layer and removed the circles.  Tthis way I’d have solid pieces to show off the pretty star paper.

I resized the hat so I could fit one piece of the hat top with the hexagon bottom on one sheet, this saved me a black piece of cardstock, I also sized the flower so the orange color pieces would fit all on one sheet of cardstock.

I cut all my pieces out and inked the edges of the patterned paper, flowers and leaves.

I assembled the top of the hat first, this thing went together perfectly, I love Lori’s files!!

I then added the triangle layers onto the sides and glued down the circle patterned paper to the black circle rim.

For the leaves I bent them by hand and used ink to create some vein lines, I then sprayed them with some water and crinkled them by hand a little.

I used my McGill tool and mat and a paint brush to curve the flower petals up.

I Glued all the petals together and added a black jewel in the center.

To complete the look, I added some black tulle around the hat, glued the flower and leaves to the side and added the ghost clip and ghouls sticker from Doodlebug’s pumpkin party,

Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
