Boo to You & More

There is a nip in the air now, and we’ve had some beautiful fall days so I thought I’d share with you some Halloween cards as the little trick or treaters will be knocking on our doors soon. My kids used to love playing dress up and I would sew their costumes so that they could play in them all year long. Anyhow, great memories but that was many moons ago… So here are some great cards that are a lot of fun for us grown ups who enjoy a bit of Halloween fun too.

This first card uses one of my favorite sets Birds of a Feather (150571) from the 2019 Holiday Catalog.

This stamp set includes 4 little chicks are dressed up for 4 different winter holidays which makes it a great set for those cards and treats we will be making!

And of course I’ve shared these adorable little monsters with you before from the Boo To You stamp set (150550) in an earlier post for a fun treat item.

And finally if you like a more realistic look for Halloween you’ll want to check out The Raven (150593) great for simple stamping since the art work is great all by itself.

The moon on this card was created by using a simple masking technique. Cut out a circle from a sticky note place it where you’d like and then use a Stampin’ Sponge to add ink. Remove the sticky note when you’re done and you have this great moon. So simple, but it creates a great effect!
