Spooktacular Bash

It’s a rainy day here in Northeast Georgia so I’m going to take advantage of that and stamp. This kind of weather is perfect for that kind of thing I think. So today’s post will be a quick one sharing a card with you that I thought I had shared earlier in the month. So here we go. Seems I need to spend a bit of time cleaning up piles on my desk too. lol

Today’s card is a fancy fold card that uses just a few score lines to create a wow factor – This card will be simple to make for your Halloween fun

Using our Spectacular Bash Suite of Products it’s sure to make that special trick or treater smile when they open it.

How do you create this fold? Simply take a 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ card stock base and score it 2 1/8″ and then at 4 1/4″. Yep, it’s that simple!

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!

So what do you think? Like these cards? Why not leave me a comment and let me know which you like the best? Then stop by my Online Store and get yours.
