Leaves are finally starting to change and kids are back in school.....fall is upon us! I love the beginning of fall because the days are still warm but the nights are crisp and cool and the excitement of harvest time and Halloween are here. I am already thinking about all of the holidays coming up. Of course the first big holiday coming is Halloween!

Carta Bella has just released a new Halloween line called All Hallow's Eve and we have it! I enjoy the variety of patterns and embellishments this line has to offer. There are lots of fun extras you can use to embellish and spice up your home. I wanted to show this cute banner that the designers at Carta Bella had created because it is pretty simple and fun. If you want to make it super easy you can purchase the Lifestyle Crafts Quicktuz Cookie Cutter Diecuts-Nesting Pennants-L-CC-008 for 21.99, which will allow you to cut out the pennant shape is no time. This diecut set does require the Epic Tool which $79.99 ( I use this tool the most just because I can pull it out really quickly, cut what I need and put it away). The circles and letters they used can be cut with the Silhouette Cameo or Cricut. (I prefer the Cameo over the Cricut because the Cameo is user friendly and you can use any font you have or can find on the interent without any special software). Once you are done cutting you can use any ribbon or twine you want to pull it all together.

Whether you choose to create the banner or just freshen up some of your Halloween decor from previous years you can't go wrong with Carta Bella's All Hallow's Eve. You can find this line on sale 30%off retail at www.allscrapbooksteals.com
