I've posted before that my little Oliver is totally and completely obsessed with ghosts right now. I thought it would be fun to make him a little ghost mobile to hang up in his room. This was a super easy and super fun project.
Oliver loves seeing the little ghosties dance around his room.
All I needed to make this was a few sheets of white card stock, a black Sharpie, a small hole punch, and some monofilament.
I used my Cricut Expression to cut the ghosts from the card stock but they could easily be drawn and cut out by hand. I am a horrible drawer but even I could pull off a pretty cute ghost. You could also print out some clip art ghosts and use those.
I then used a Sharpie to draw on eyes and mouths on both sides.
Next I used a plate as a template to draw a round circle out of the card stock for the top. I think it was 7 inches (not that it really matters). I used my small hole punch to punch holes around the circle and in the ghosts. Lastly, I used the monofilament to tie the ghosts to each other and to the circle using a simple knot.
This was really easy, a lot of fun, and best of all, Oliver adores it.

Cute! Great ghosts, too. Thanks for sharing ... I've posted a link.
Which Cricut cartridge did you find the ghost template on? Or did you just find it on the internet with the SCAL software? Love it! So cute! - Karen
Thanks for linking, Sheri!
Thanks so much, Karen! I used the Mini Monsters cartridge.
