Frankenstein with Cricut Artiste

Earlier this month I showed you how you could make a darling Pumpkin with our *NEW* Cricut Artiste cartridge along with our *NEW* My Creations Block.  Here is another idea (also perfect for Halloween!)…Frankenstein!  The face is a quick cut on the Artiste cartridge and for his hair…I used the Spring grass on the cartridge! … Read more Frankenstein with Cricut Artiste
