They’re simple to make, but the real star of this project is the Cricut Maker Scoring Wheel. Today we’re going to be making super cute Halloween rosettes. The opinions and text are all mine.A simple tutorial for DIY Halloween rosettes with the Cricut Scoring Wheel.

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Cricut.

I put the pieces together with Scor-Tape (much faster and easier than glue!)Īren’t these the prettiest Halloween rosettes you’ve ever seen? The scoring wheel made folding the accordion-like folds quick and easy. These cuts are rather delicate but the Maker did a wonderful job of cutting these designs. When I saw the Martha Stewart Halloween Rosettes in Cricut Design Space, I knew they would be the perfect project for me to try out the Cricut Scoring Wheel. I love how they turned out! And now I can put my Valentine’s Day coasters away until February!Īs I mentioned in the beginning, I love paper rosettes. It was fast and easy! I will go around each one with a straight stitch. I ended up adhering them together with the adhesive tape. I tried sewing the first one with a blank stitch on my sewing machine but it didn’t work out. You can see the steps that I took to attach the front and back of the coasters. I cut these squares 1″ bigger than the black felt squares. Then I needed to cut out the backs for the coasters out of coordinating cotton fabric. These ghosts could also be attached with fabric glue. Next, I cut out squares of black felt for the top of the coasters and then stitched the ghosts onto those 4″ squares using my sewing machine. Look at how cleanly the Maker cut those shapes:

I made six copies of the ghost and cut them using the Rotary Blade out of the Cricut Felt. I simply “ungrouped” it and moved the ghost shape over to the side and then deleted the rest of the design. I just did a search in Projects for ghosts. I started out by looking for a ghost shape in Cricut Design Space and since I couldn’t find one on its own, I used one found in a card. The first Halloween craft I want to show are these cute, felt coasters. While I’ve used the rotary blade for fabric projects in the past ( here and here), this is the first time I’ve used the scoring wheel and it won’t be the last! Especially since I’m such a fan of paper rosettes and other 3-D paper projects that will make crafting life so much easier! The Cricut Rotary Blade and the Scoring Wheel were used in today’s projects. It is a professional-level cutting performance machine, accessible to everyone and I’m just starting to scratch the surface of what this machine can do. With its expandable suite of tools and advanced Rotary blade and Adaptive Tool System (including Knife Blade and Scoring Wheels,) Cricut Maker™ gives you the freedom to make virtually any DIY project. I knew when I upgraded to a Cricut Maker last year that my crafting world would open up. Create your own DIY Halloween Crafts and home decor projects using your Cricut Maker. Get ready for spooky and pretty fun by making these Halloween crafts: Halloween Coasters and pretty Halloween Rosettes.
