Spooky Night, Paisleys & Posies, Creep It Real, Patterned Pumpkins, Stitched Shapes, Layering Ovals, Cookie Cutter - Halloween Card

It's mostly sunny today with increasing clouds later tonight and a high of only 52.  Getting colder out!

My share for today is another Halloween Card that I designed.  Let's take a look:


My Card Base is Basic Black Cardstock cut at 4-1/4" x 11" and scored and folded at 5-1/2" for a top folding Card.

My Card Front Panel is Very Vanilla Cardstock Stock at 3-7/8" x 5-1/8".  I trimmed out a piece of the Potion Bottle Pattern from SU's Spooky Night Designers Series Paper to measure 3" x 3-7/8" and adhered it to the bottom of my Very Vanilla Card Front Panel.


I adhered a length of SU's 5/8" Burlap Ribbon and then a length of SU's Basic Black Vintage Crochet Trim around the splice and adhered the panel to my Card Base with Stampin' Dimensionals.


Using SU's Layering Ovals, I die cut the Large Scalloped Oval from Pumpkin Pie Cardstock.

Using SU's Stitched Shapes, I die cut the Largest Oval from Old Olive Cardstock and Very Vanilla Cardstock (the Very Vanilla Oval is for the inside of my Card).

I adhered the Old Olive Oval to the Pumpkin Pie Oval with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.



Using SU's Paisleys & Posies Stamp Set, I stamped the Dotted Paisley in Basic Black Ink onto Very Vanilla Cardstock and die cut it out with the coordinating Paisleys Framelits Dies.

Using SU's Cookie Builder Punch, I punched 2 of the Large Circles from Very Vanilla Cardstock, 2 of the Small Circles from Basic Black Cardstock and the Bow Tie from the Striped Pattern in Spooky Night DSP.

I adhered the Basic Black Circles to the Very Vanilla Circles and to my Ghost with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.  I then applied SU's Fine Tip Glue Bottle Adhesive to both eyes and let it dry.


I adhered the Bow Tie to my Ghost with Mono Multi Purpose Glue in the center of the Bow Tie only.

I fussy cut out a Witches Hat from the Witches' Hat Pattern from Spooky Night DSP and adhered it to the top of my Ghost with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.

I adhered one of SU's Enamel Glitter Circle Dots to the Hat and one to the Bow Tie.


Using SU's Creep It Real Stamp Set, I stamped the Boo in Basic Black Archival Ink onto the Very Vanilla Oval and adhered it to the inside of my Card with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.

Using Patterned Pumpkins Thinlits Dies, I die cut out a Pumpkin from a piece of SU's Spooky Night DSP and adhered it to the Very Vanilla Oval with Mono Multi Purpose.


A quick and easy Card to make.  The Paisley sure made for a cute Ghost!

I still have some Stampin' Up Promotions to share with you today too!

PLEASE GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE!


I recently discovered that people are using my cards and/or projects, duplicating them and entering them into challenges, using them for their own card classes and (using them on their blogs as their own creations) - Please give credit where credit is due.  My cards and projects are my own creations and are not to be used in challenges, blog hops, card classes or sold at craft shows; etc., for profit.  I don't mind if you duplicate my creativity to pass on to family members or friends as gifts or Occasions cards; but,  PLEASE be considerate of others creativity!  Thank you!
