Thank you for this opportunity to win something! I can tell you exactly my favorite costume! The year I had a store "boughten" one! Our family was large and didn't have extra money for such frivoluous items! So, when we went trick-or-treating, it was with a paper bag and whatever I could find to put together. One year I had a pull over witch costume and hat that I bought with money I had saved. I added a broom! Unfortunately, it was thin plastic and ripped before the night was over, but that was OK, for a little while I had a real costume...just like my friends!
My mom made all our costumes growing up. I've been so many things. Its so hard to pick my favorite. I guess I can say it was RAGGEDY ANN. Halloween is my favorite holiday and I dress up every year... still have to have great costumes.If I by something I always add to it to make it unique. Putting this year's together right now.
I would have to say that 3 years ago I made a BEE costume and It was a contest and I won second place for the most creative costume! Thanks for the chance to win and I have been a follower here and love your blog!!

Thanks for the giveaway, what a fun day. I love your blog.
My favorite Halloween costume...........well many years ago I dressed up as a bubble gum machine. I got a very large clear plastic bag, cut holes in the bottom for my legs then filled it up with balloons for the gumballs. It was fun but very hard to sit in the car on the way to the party LOL

Thank you for the opportunity to win! I think my favorite costume was when I lived in England. My husband had gotten me a fire helmet from one of the local stations. A friend let me borrow the coat, boots and pants to go with it. That coat is heavy! But, so worth it.

Love your blog...I am a follower! My favorite costume I ever wore was the when myself, my husband, his sister, her boyfriend, and our youngest daughter dressed up like a bag of M&M's....of course my daughter was the cutest of them all...but it was fun! Lots of inappropriate jokes when we went to the adult only party!
My Mom made me the coolest cheerleader costume when I was little. It was my fav color at the time, orange. I just loved those pom poms. Keep in mind that I was not the "cheerleader type" I was more the tomboy type type. But it was fun to dress up for a night or two.
Thanks for the chance to win, I just became a follower.
Thanks for the chance to win a great cart. My fave costume is what my mom made for me when I was a kid. It was an almond Hershey's kiss. You would stuff it will newspaper and have a hat with the ribbon hanging down. It was so cute. And all the love my mom put into it meant alot.
My mom always made our costumes (4 of us). My favorite costume was a bunny because it was the first one that wasn't a hand-me-down and I could pick the design. Loved it so much, I wore it to my birthday the next year! Thanks for a chance to win some great prizes.

Thanks for allowing me the pleasure of trying to win your blog candy. My best halloween costume was my son's, which I sewed and he was a purple dinosaur, pre-Barney days. He loved that costume so much he wore it so much it got holes.
Thanks again,

Forgot to tell you about my favorite Halloween costume I made one year for myself and my hubbie. We were bert and ernie. I made the heads using a large balloon covered with (I don't think they make this any more) Dip N Drape. It's like a wet paper mache. Once it dried, I painted them to look like Bert & Ernies faces. Then just put their large initials on a sweatshirt . It was a real hit and not expensive to do at all.
Again thanks for the opportunity to win the Halloween cartridge.

My favorite Halloween costume was a princess ballgown that a lady from my church made me when I was nine-she sewed it for me and it was beautiful!
My best Halloween costume was a girl scout, complete with custom patches pertaining to the concert I attended in the costume. I won 2nd place over more than 3000 costumes. I am and have been a follower of you for years.
What a nice giveaway. My favorite costume is one I made for my daughter. She was Rainbow Brite. She loved that costume.
How nice of you!! I am already a follower. The best Halloween costume I have ever wore was when I was in Kindergarten. There was a HUGE snow storm and I was a SANDWICH!! I had 2 winter coats on under it too! It was pretty awesome!!

Thank you for being so generous! My favorite Halloween costume? I guess it would have to be dressing up like a fairy! Who doesn't feel pretty and feminine dressed up like a fairy? :)
I didn't win any contests for MY costume but I felt like a real FASHION DIVA. I was probably 10 or 11 so wearing alllll that make-up would've been enough but then my Mom put me in a "fancy" dress with HAT 'n GLOVES 'n PURSE. Oh my, I was glam!!! Oh, and she put black lace around the "eye mask". SO FUN.
Hmmmmm, wonder IF I'll win a contest with it now!!! Thanks for the chance.
My fav was when my friends and I dressed up as the Spice Girls in middle school. We had some wild hair & outfits! Of course I think my son's costume this year will be great, he's going as The Cat in the Hat this year, though my favorite of his so far is when we dressed him up as a Harley biker with the jacket, and bandana! He was super cute! He wasn't even 2 yet, but he was sure the cutest biker I have ever seen. :-)
Thanks so much for the opportunity to win! I just joined as a follower. I guess my favorite costume was when my daughter was three she wanted to be a "rock", she had a rock collection going at the time, for Halloween. We took trash bags and painted them and then added small pebbles, moss, and some dirt and we were each a mountain of rocks for our costumes. It was a blast and we did win most creative which got her a ribbon (and to her that was all that mattered)!!!
Wow cool contest! I love my Cats costume and was a kitten for Halloween!
This is so cool, thanks. My favorite costume was when I dressed up as R2D2 and my husband was Yoda. We had so much fun and took first place.
Thanks for the chance to win. My favorice costume was a when I dressed up as a princess. My birtdhay is near halloween so we always had costume parties growing up. It was fun!
My fav was a costume my mom made with orange ric rac trim.
My best costume has got to be the witch costume I made for myself when I was in high school. It was great. Thanks for the chance.
When I was in elementary school, we had a huge school Halloween party every year called "Operation Pumpkin". One year I went as a headless man and a friend of mine went as an old lady. She had to help me around a little 'cause it was hard to see in my costume, but we ended up winning first prize!
The wierdest costume that I made was my DH & I went as mummies. We couldn't talk, go to the bathroom nor drink, it was a contest.
How super sweet! Thanks for the chance.
Crafty hugs,
Leah
Fun giveaway! My favorite costume was a clown back when I was in... maybe 8th grade? It was fun!

Thanks for this cool chance to win! My Mom made all of our Hallowe'en costumes when we were growing up, so I have been many things: a hobo, a clown, a witch... very hard to pick a favourite... I think that Raggedy Ann wins out by a small margin, just because I think I looked so CUTE!
Happy WCMD!!!
My favorite costume was the year I was Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz.
Lindsey
My favorite costume would have to be the the one that my good friend and I made together when we were about 17 years old. We went to the fabric store and purchased the fabric and the pattern and we made Crayola Crayon costumes. I was a red crayon and she was green. They turned out so cute!
Thanks for this opportunity to win some cool stuff!
Wonderful blog - I will be looking through it again for cardmaking ideas!
My best halloween costume I have worn - that has been many years and unfortunately I have no pictures it was not something my parents did - so I would have to say it will be this year when I get all dolled up into a witch costume
Michele,
I deleted my first post because I forgot to add that I already have these, I just thought is was sweet and noted it at my blog, so I didn't want to be entered.
Colleen
I'm a follower! My best costume was a little cowboy outfit. My son wore it when he was little! :-) Thanks!
It's been a long time since I've worn a costume for Halloween. One of my favorite costumes as a kid was Jem from the cartoon Jem and the Holograms. It was one of the old vinyl costumes that you had to wear over your clothes and tie in the back. It came with one of the plastic masks with a string that held it on your face and the little slits for eyes / nose / mouth that costumes can no longer have.
Thanks for the chance to win!

Thanks for the opportunity to win such lovely prizes!
Most of my costumes growing up were storebought, but I had exactly one costume that was uniquely mine. I took one of my more elaborate Indian outfits, with bright colors and embroidery, and wore it for Halloween. My mom gave me fancy braids, helped me with my make-up (I was a tomboyish 7-year-old, so I needed a LOT of help), and got me some costume jewelery. I was a rani, an Indian queen, and nobody else felt as beautiful as I did that Halloween night. I even won my school's costume contest. :)
I loved my pirate costume I wore to a party several years ago. It was a typical pirate, but I had a very ugly looking rubber mask with it. It was fun. I have a picture of it somewhere. Thanks for a chance to win
I am a follower. My best costume ever has to be my clown costume. I actually have several because I am a real clown.
I also dress up like Mother Goose.
Been may years since i was a kid only the rich kids had costumes so we had to make do with what we already had as we were not the rich lol. I was a clown most of the time using mom's make up and big sister's clothes.
The best costume I can remember dressing up as is a bunny rabbit ( I know cheesy right lol) I would love to win!!
I am a blog follower already, love your projects and style. would love to win either!!

I'd have to say my best costume was one I made years ago - a tea bag. The top layer was tulle and the layer closest to my body was just cotton but in between I filled it with moss and left a trail behind me wherever I went. I may not have been a 'best dressed' winner but it sure was hilarious.
Oh boy count me in! We used to make our own costumes. I guess my favorite would of been dressing up as a medic. We did fake blood and all, it was pretty cool. Used an old doctors toy kit and we was set.

Well, I tend to lean toward witches or vampires but the year I had the most fun was 2004. I was pregnant with my son and we (my husband and 2 year old daughter) decided we would be pirates that year. Well, I had no trouble finding their costumes but mine was another story...I didn't! I ended up being one of those blow up pumpkins and had a blast!
My favorite was a hand made raggedy Ann with wig and all.
As a former school teacher I had several costumes I worn; bumble bee, bat, gorilla - I especially liked dressing up as the bumble bee - it was my favorite. This year I am not sure what I will be as I no longer teach school but take care of my MIL. Thanks for allowing me to have a chance to be in the drawing - have a great day ~ Gail ~ utb2002@yahoo.com
Happy WCMD!!!! My favorite costume was my Wendy (from Casper) when I was about 5 or 6! It was so cute! Thanks so much for this awesome giveaway!
I just became a follower! I am not sure that my generation had store bought costumes. My friends and I usually just wore some of out parents oversized dresses and clothes and added a mask and hat. I don't remember teenage Halloween parties, so no costumes for that.

My greatest would have to be Lady Luck...Mom always made my costumes and that year I had a skirt made of crenoline and we stapled lottery tickets to it...still haven't won the lottery...but I would feel like it if I won this!!!
When I was a kid, we usually raided Mom & Dad's closet to dress up. I LIKED dressing up like Mommy. Our folks must have been really good sports when they watched 4 of us walking out of the house in their clothes!
Thanks for a chance to win the magazine and cartridge! I've been wanting Happy Hauntings for a while. I have enjoyed your work on the cricut blog, but now I am following your blog too.
When I was in late elementary school, I would make costumes with my friends. I think my favorite was when I was a bag of jelly beans. A large clear plastic bag filled with many small balloons.
Thanks again.

My favorite costume is an inflatable horse that I picked up very inexpensively and it turned out to be an adorable costume. Thanks for the opportunity to win! :)
What a great giveaway for WCMD. I wish I would have been able to craft today but it was DD's birthday and she wanted a shopping day. I enjoy those days!
We didn't get to dress up much but one year I dressed up as a scarecrow and we had so much fun. The best years of trick or treat were when my kids were little. :))
I've enjoyed looking around your blog. So glad I found it thru the Cricut Circle.

I remember growing up and not having money for costumes. One year my friend and I dressed up as Fortune Tellers, we just gathered random clothing and jewelry from our Moms. It was a lot of fun wearing funky clothes and jewelry.

What a great giveaway! When I was 10, we went to Church on Halloween, so we couldn't really do the traditional costumes. My dad got really creative, which he never did at the time, and brought home this barrel type of thing. He cut out holes in the sides and sprayed the entire thing silver. He even found some battery operated blinking lights (weren't really popular yet) used reflectors and all kinds of things and made it into a robot! He took a helmet and covered it in aluminum foil and used dryer vent tubing for the arms and legs. Hee! Hee! It was the most uncomfortable thing I had ever worn in my short life, but I know that there wasn't a single other kid at that party who had a costume as cool as I did. I am just so glad that there weren't any storms that night. I would have been struck by lightning for sure. Hee! Hee! Thanks for reminding me of such a fond memory! Your fans... the Cricut Couple. cricut couple at gmail dot com
I went as a belly dancer one year. Before I had a big belly! Haha!

My favorite costume would be a Care Bears one my mother made when I was around 7, seems to be the one I remember the most. Thank you for the giveaway!

Thanks for the opportunity to enter your contest -- Halloween is my most favorite holiday! Back in Canada, when I was a kid, it seemed that every costume had to fit over a snowsuit - so I never got to dress as a cute fairy or a princess. Now that I'm an adult (and living further south!), I dress up every year with my boys. I guess I have a lifetime of repressed Halloweens to get out of my system! This year, I just *love* our "Pirates of the Caribbean" themed costumes -- my 4 year old will be Jack Sparrow (complete with matted dreadlocks), my 5 year old will be Will Turner, and I will Elizabeth Swann. I can't wait!
We didnt usually get store bought costumes so we made our own. I remember dressing up as a hob using my dad's old clothes. When I was a young adult, I dressed as a cowgirl and thought that was a cute outfit!

My favorite costume was an interpretation from a Gary Larson cartoon butterflies from the wrong side of the meadow. It was my daugther's first halloween so I made a flower hat for her and tattered butterfly wings for me (with things like eat pollen and die). Fun thing, she lovvvvvves Gary Larson lol.
Our favorite custom growing up was a gypsy costume. It was a taffeta skirt embroidered with flowers and we just added the costume jewelry and a white blouse and bandana. Thanks for the chance to win! cjdempsey9 at msn dot com
Mine would be an Angel costume.
Thanks for a chance to win

It's been SO long I can't remember what I ever wore as a child for Halloween. But since I was a tomboy, I'm going to say being a cowgirl. Yippee ki yay!
When I was 11, I had my first and only store bought costume. It was a red satin looking jump suit thing with a devil mask. It even had a tail with a point. I was so proud of that costume. We lived in the country and trick or treating was usually neighbors to either side and not a big deal. But that year I had been invited to a real Halloween party and my Mom felt I needed a real costume. By the time she decided to buy one, the devil was the only thing left in my size. She got it at the 'dime store' in the closest town to us.
Pam
My favorite costume: when my husband and I dressed up as a pirate and pirate princess for a Halloween party! It was so much fun! Great giveaway! Thanks for a chance to win!

Thank you for posting on FB about your giveaway. So glad you did so that I found your blog. Love it!!!
Just read through some of your old posts and will be back to read more later. I now follow AND subscribe by email (don't want to miss anything). :)
Oh and glad to know from your last post that I'm not the only one who's been neglecting my beautiful h2o's... As a matter of fact it was a very similar style layered flower (or snowflake depending on the way you colour it) stamp from Stamp Barn that I used them on last. :)
I just signed up to be a follower and I posted about your giveaway on my blog. I'd love to win this cartridge as it is something I've wanted.
My best costume was probably when I was young and my boyfriend went as a sheik and I was his captured harem girl. I made a costume similar to I Dream of Jeanie's costume but a little more modest. I felt like the "princess" of little girl times.
Thank you for the opportunity to win! To be honest with you, I don't remember a favorite costume. I just remember how much fun it was to go trick or treating!
My best outfit was when I dressed up like Madonna circa 1984 (Borderline inspired). Everyone knew what I was!
I am 61 years old. When I was only 7 years old my mom made me a costume that was a hit at the costume party. I was "The one eyed, one horned, flying purple people eater" Sorry, I don't have pictures, but it was GREAT fun!
I am new to owning the Cricut and have few cartridges, but would love to win this one.
Many thanks,
Cindy
In 1957, I worn "The one eyed, one horn, flying purple people eater" costume. It was made by my mother and a Great hit at a costume party I attended at the young age of 7.
Would love to win this catrridge as I have only had my Cricut for about 3 months.
Thanks,
Cindy
I could always use a new mag or cartridge! Thank you for the chance to win one.
Wow, what a great opportunity to win the cart!!! When I was growing up we really didn't have much Halloween costumes. It was mostly wearing plastic face mask and we also used the "Wonder" plastic bread bag to carry our treats in!!!! It wasn't much, but we kids sure had alot of fun trick or treatin'!
Thanks for a chance at that awesome giveaway! My favorite costume is when I dressed up as a bubble bath - complete with 4 dozen light pink balloons safety pinned to a light pink sleeveless dress. I wore it all day to work, even drove in it. I strategically pinned the back balloons so none were down my spine but yet they overlapped for complete coverage. I wore a shower cap, shower shoes, and carried a bath brush. We have a costume parade at work (in the front parking lot so maximum embarrassment is achieved) and I won first place. Then I come home to get the kids ready for their neighborhood trick or treating, and as I opened my front door, a neighbor driving by had to back up and give me a REALLY close look. Apparently she thought I was nakid under the balloons. What a hoot.
Awesome blog, great winning opportunity!
My favourite Halloween costume ever would have to be the year I dressed up as a medieval queen and my then bf was the king.
So much fun!
Oooohhh! Halloween (blog) candy!!!!
I loved acting in my former life (before kids) and when my EDD was 1 I dressed up like a farmer because she was a pumpkin. I think that was a favorite since it involved my cutey!!!!
When I was about 12 my grandmother made me the bestest costume ever and she was able to transform me into this beautiful princess. My grandmother always made the best costumes and had such an eye for sewing. The princess costume was made from this silky pink material and my grandmother made me a bejewelled tiara to go with it. My grandmother was the bestest and always made me the best costumes.
My best costume was Alice in Wonderland. I made every character from the original and won first place on the group and a few of the individual costumes. Thanks for the chance to win !!!! Awesome prizes... Linda Harris
My favorite costume was when I made my husband and I costumes. We were a waiter and waitress in a 50's restaurant. It was a lot of fun, chewing gum and all. This has been fun and thanks for the chance to win a great prize. I have been a follower for quite some time. Regina

I have a picture of me when I was about 5 dressed as a geisha with kimona and cumberbun. I think I was probably the cutest little blonde headed japanese girl anyone ever saw.
My favorite by far is the homemade tinkerbell costume in high school. i often reminisce about it, wondering if i can still fit it...

Ooo, what a fun give away, thank you!
I've subscribed to your blog forevah Michele!
My most memorable costume was dressing up in my mom's clothes one year. I felt so grown up, too fun!
hugs
Oh, thank you for the opportunity to own such wonderful gifts. I have really been enjoying all the inspiration you give me with your beautiful cards. My best costume was my Marie Antoinette. It was really dressing up!
I never paid for a Halloween costume, I'm too cheap, so when invited to a Halloween party a few years back.. I made a sign that said Reward:lost dog- last seen couch
I then took a safety pin and pinned a beanie baby dog to the butt of my pants. It was a big hit at the party.

Thank you for the opportunity to win something - I'd love to add that to my "stash." M-A-N-Y years ago, as an adult, I went as a pregnant angel - my halo was a little off center! haha!
I went as a bunch of green grapes---tons of balloons attached to a tshirt. My husband went as a bunch of purple grapes. Only problem is that we couldn't sit down.
I would have to say when I (at 6 years old) dressed up as Superwoman!! That pic just cracks me up to this day!! Thanx for the chance to win!!:)
Love a chance to win something. My favorite costume continues to be a simple, yet VERY funny one. Paint around one of your eyes black (black eye) and then wear all white and put a big letter "P" on your shirt front. You are now a black eyed pea! LOVE IT! Lisa in East Texas.
My favorite costume ever was a sexy skeleton. I razzed up my hair so it ws all pufffy and crazy. I bought these black pantyhose that had skeleton legs on them. I tore up a black miniskirt, tank top and matching jacket. I wore high heels and to the best part was my painted on face. It looked just like a skeleton and was SCARY! Voila...sexy skeleton! I am already a follower and thanks for a chance to win!
Thanks for this giveaway! I'd love to win!
My favorite costume was a Gumby costume when I was 5 or 6. For some reason, it just stands out in my mind!
Thanks for the chance to win! My best costume had to be my witch costume, which my mom made. Wore it several years and loved it.
Just saw your circle post about this. Very cool of you to do this.

As a genealogist I made a scottish lass costume and went to the party as my ancestor. Happy World Card Making Day to all!!!
Thanks for the giveaway. I've been throwing a Halloween party for the last several years, and I make coordinating costumes for my Husband and me. We've been Fred and Betty Rubble, a cowboy and saloon girl, witch and wizard, but my favorite was when we were Jasmine and Aladin.
wow thanks for the chance to win.
my favorite costume would be the devil!!!! because that fits me..
Thanks for the chance. The best Halloween I ever made for myseslf was an airplane out of poster board. I was about twelf at the time and made wings that attached to my arms with strings as well as a nose and tail! It was probably my cheapest costume ever too!
Forgot to say that I am already an avid follower! I posted your giveaway on my blog for an added chance. Here's a link: http://eterno-lyyours.blogspot.com/2011/10/world-card-making-day-or-should-i-say.html. Thanks for the chance!
I am a new follower. The year my son was born, I dressed both of us as Pirates. I went all out and even took professional pictures of us dressed this way. That was my favorite costume. Thank you for the giveaway and I really admire your work.
Pam of pamspaperpassion.blogspot.com
My favorite costume that I can remember was as an adult. I was a witch, with green makeup and we all dressed up at the place I worked. I even had the broom with me but still had to drive.
Karen/ garagesaler
Thanks for the chance to win. I think your are awesomely talented. I love your cards. I'm already a blog follower. My favorite costume would have to be a witch. Boring. I need to dress up more.
Thanks for the chance to win such an awesome prize. Think the best costume i had was when my mom made me a cat costume. i loved it :)
Maybe not the best, but surely the funniest and it won a contest for me. I dressed up like a cop and my boss, who is at least a foot taller than me, wore a trench coat and boots and handcuffs. He was a streaker and all of my co-workers loved it!
My favorite costume was one I wore as an adult! My office always did things for the holidays and Halloween was no exception. One year, I dressed as "what the cat drug in". . .had a wild hairstyle, smeared make up, blouse misbuttoned and half tucked in, rips in my stockings and a very large stuffed cat wrapped around my ankle! I won most creative costume!
Great giveaway! Thanks for the chance to win!
I'm already a follower. As far as costumes go, when I was growing up, everyone's halloween costume either came out of their closet or a 8 1/2 by 11 box. No one wore the fancy costumes they sell now! Inside the box was a vinyl costume that was more of an apron, and a mask. My favorite one of those was a 'barbie' costume.
My favorite costume I wore was when I was pregnant with our fourth child. In Iowa, sometimes Halloween can be quite cold. My hubby helped me, and we took a card board box and painted it to look like an oven, then we took our son's ultrasound picture and blew it up so it was the window of the oven! On the back of the box we used stencil and painted "bun in the oven." I wore this as I walked with our other three children while they went door to door trick or treating. It also kept me warm! :)
WOW! You know I follow! :-) I was a cat when I was a little girl, and while it wasn't fancy or anything, I LOVED that costume! It made me so happy!!! And that is why I consider it the best one!
Wow, such a perfect giveaway! Wow, as a child or adult, believe it or not I never had a costume. So as far as my children, my son had the cutest bunny costume and my daughter a princess of course...lol
Thanks for the chance to win!
I have had several homemade costumes, because my mother was a very good seamstress. But the best of all was just a month ago we went to a Harvest Fest at a campground and I took decorations for our campsite and decided to wear some for the parade that they did, and I ended up winning!! What a surprise! It was a homemade witch costume that I made to decorate our yard lamppost with. Even more funnier!! Thanks for the great giveaway!!!
Nice job I really like your work.
I don't have a blog but wanted to say "thank you" for sharing your paper crafting with the world.
My favorite costume was when me and my girlfriends dressed up as the California Raisins. Thanks for the giveaway. I follow your blog but don't have my own. Thanks again!
Hi. Love your site!! Very inspiring.
My only costume I had as a kid was a clown outfit. My aunt brought the material and mom made it. We were 3 little clowns that year. My 2 sisters and me.
