Happy Haunting

Hi crafters!  I hope you enjoyed the latest die launch and are ready to go back to one post a day (only for a short while though!)  I started by selecting a piece of white card to use.  I cut the Spider's Web die a couple of times.  I glued the web onto the white card.  I had to cut into both webs to make them fit where I wanted them to go.  Next I used the Double Stitched Circles dies and cut three small circle frames.  I added mounting foam to the backs of each frame and attached them onto the card .  In the top frame, I cut the mummy from the Halloween Frame die.  I used Weathered Wood Distress ink and a soft grey pencil to accents the mummy wrap.  In the centre frame, I added one of the ghosts from the Ghoulish Ghost die set.  In the lower frame I used Jamie's Witch and cut here out of milk card.  I then cut her again out of deep purple and a final time out of black.  I cut the dress off of the purple die cut and glued it on top of the milk card die cut.  I used the hat and the hair from the black die cut and glued them on the base die cut.  I cut the broom out of black card and glued it into her hand, then added her into the frame.  I had to nip away her feet so she fit in the frame.  I cut the three pumpkins from the Halloween Frame and added a yellow backing, then glued them into the lower corner.  I cut Jamie's Happy Haunting sentiment out of orange and black.  I used the black die cut as a shadow then glued it to the top of the card. I completed the card with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  8 3/4"  in size.  All for now, Sue x

  21. I do love this card. I remember it on Jamie's show. I had to have the new Halloween dies as my Halloween supplies are getting over used (hard to find the perfect ones). I was super excited to get these so I want to make this card. I have started on my Halloween cards this week. Thanking all the CE team for a great first effort and I hope more next year. Very fun.
