Cutting machine such as the Cricut Maker or the Explore Air

Blue LightGrip Mat

Fine-point Blade

Scoring Tool – I often use the scoring stylus so I don’t have to switch tools, but you can also use the scoring wheel

Cricut Brayer

Cricut Scraper

Cricut piercing tool (in the Cricut TrueControl Weeding Kit)

Reverse Tweezers – I like this pack of three because I’m always setting them down *somewhere*

Bone Folder

Variety of colored cardstock – I used:

Bearly Art Precision Glue

Cordless Glue Gun  

Glass Craft Mat

Download the free SVG from the Free Files Folder.

It’s design # 115 Bonus SVGs – fall basket, leaves, and vintage frames.

How to use the SVG

Upload into Design Space and Ungroup.

Change one layer to Score, as shown below.


Attach the Score layer to the cut layer below it. Make it.


Fold along the score lines, then use a hot glue gun to glue the basket tab to the inside of the basket.


Glue several tabs to the base as shown; it works best if you glue every 3rd tab.


Glue the rest of the tabs down from the top.


Use a pencil to help curl the basket sides under.

Use regular glue to glue the second basket bottom in. Beacon’s 3-in-1 Craft Glue works the best; it allows you to slide the piece into exactly the right place because it doesn’t dry instantly.

Glue on the handle.


Here we have the basket. It’s a bit plain, so I cut out some leaves from glitter and metallic cardstock.


You’ll need to resize the leaves to fit a bit better if you want it to look like mine.

Use Bearly Art Precision Glue and reverse tweezers on these small pieces.


Pretty! The black cardstock behind the pumpkins and leaves add nice depth.


Don’t forget to add the candy corn!
