I have those, the house can be for housewarming parties. The cat is cute for just general use animal lovers. I like using the leaves for fall. The cauldron is good for camping themes also.

The apple would be one that is good for everyday use.

The cat isn't a typical Halloween cat so you could use that all year.

The leaves would do for the whole season of fall.

THe tombstone can be used for any over the hill birthday.

You can also many of them for a theme like Harry Potter too.

I think if you cut out the spider and move its arms it looks like a piece of wrapped candy.

The broom could be used for a housewarming.
The moon could be used for a baby shower (cow jumped over the moon).
I second the Harry Potter idea!

The Frankenstein head looks like a piece of bread upside-down.

the ghost in the bottom left looks like it could be jabba from star wars or ursula from ariel.

the broom could also be for an african american wedding.

definitely any harry potter type themes or magic theme birthday parties.

The one in the lower right corner also looks a bit like a piggy bank.

Hmmm...cauldron could be used for St. Patrick's Day pot of gold.

Apple for teacher appreciation.

Cat...well, yeah, a cat.

Candy corn could be used as a blank palette for anything. You could draw a cheerleader's megaphone in it.

Spiderweb could be the base for a flower.

Oh, I love the ghost as Ursula from little mermaid idea. I'll have to use that one! My suggestion is to use the tombstone as a purse with a strap.
I do that one.

* tombstone could be turned into a wardrobe from narnia
* apple could be a peach or any fruit with leaves on top
* bottom left ghost could have the little tail part cut of and be used as a child playing dress up
* broom could be a paintbrush
* turn the cauldron upside down and you can use like an outer space helmet for an alien or a fish bowl
*Spiderweb for obviously spiderman, or as "great job" stars or fireworks
* frankenstein could be an old lady with crazy hair and earrings sticking out (instead of the neck pins)

Good question...it has really gotten me to look at these differently. Thanks! We should do this with ALL of our cutters!
