Hello crafty friends.

I’m sharing two cards today using the Halloween Mug Additions die set. This die set is so much fun! You can pair it with the Winter Mug die set to turn your mug into Frankenstein, a cat, mummy, and even a witch cauldron!

I can’t get over how cute these mugs are. I love them both, but do think I am drawn to the witch inspired one because of the cute broom and bubbling witchs’ brew in the mug! Stunning cards!

Dear Lisa – I have a few financial concerns just now, so I ordered my “must” have items and I did not choose the mug dies. Now I am kicking myself. I love, love, love what you have shared here and I will end up getting the mug additions dies later, anyway. I plan to return to this post and copy your designs. They’re GORGEOUS – it’s SCARY how good they are LOL!
