Halloween Resources: Ellison, Pinterest, & More

What's Brewing in the IRC?


Are your decorations ready for Halloween? We have a great collection of Ellison Dies to help with that project.

The IRC Pinterest board - Ellison Dies:  Holiday - features a variety of dies including Halloween favorites scarecrows, a pumpkin patch, pumpkins, jack-o-lanterns, a Halloween Cat, witch on a broom, a bat, a ghost, and a cauldron. If you use our paper, Ellison cuts are only one cent each.  Yes! A penny goes a long way. If you have never used the Ellison machines, stop in the IRC. We can help you select dies and set up for your project.


Looking for Halloween picture books? We have a Pinterest board for that, too.
