I am in a Halloween mood and decided to make Halloween magnets using homemade wobble springs and the Cricut Happy Hauntings cartridge.
To view my video on how to make your own wobble springs, click here. I used ¾ inch circles for this project and it worked great! I like being able to make my own wobble springs to use with the smaller cuts.
This magnet is cut at 5.1 inches from the Happy Hauntings cartridge and the cat is sized at 2.5 inches using the real size dial. Once again I only used the outside layer. Instead of using Glossy Accents, this time I used glitter paper. I like both looks, but the one made with Glossy Accents is my favorite! Lastly, I added my homemade wobble spring and a magnet.
