Happy Wednesday!
As the Spooky Halloween Countdown I made for my brother last year was such a big hit, I made two slightly different versions this year for the girls that live behind my mother.
I can report that this year’s Halloween Countdowns were also a big hit! Here is a picture of the two Countdowns together:
I used the Creations by AR Dessert Cage template and altered the top to resemble a chimney. The instructions for the countdown boxes can be found on last year’s post.
The grey Halloween Countdown is Chloe’s:
This Halloween Countdown is Katie’s:
Embellishing the Halloween Countdowns was so much fun. The Days ’til Halloween sentiment was created in Word.
I am entering the Halloween countdowns in the following challenges:
Score-Pal “More Than One Score” Challenge #9 – Fall/Halloween
I hand-cut the Creations by AR Dessert Cage templates and used my Score-Pal for all the scores on the template pieces and for the countdown boxes.
The Sizzix Challenge / Halloween!
I used the following Sizzix products: Lollipop Numbers Dies, Originals Ghost #2 Dies, and Sizzlet Skeleton.
I hope you enjoyed my Spooky Halloween Countdowns as much as I enjoyed making them and as much as the girls enjoyed receiving them!
Thanks for stopping by!

Oh gosh Lisa these are so cute! I love the fact that they remind me of a circus wagon and the embellishments are perfect! Thanks for playing in our Halloween/Fall challenge at More Than One Score at Scor-Pal and Good Luck!
