Trick Or Treat
Hi bloggers! I started by cutting Frankie's Frame in black. I backed the frame with a piece of black gloss card. I cut the Frankenstein out of green card, then coloured his hair, plugs and pants with a black marker. I added a red jacket that I paper pieced. I cut a round moon out of blue pixied card and added it behind the moon in the corner. I cut a Vampire out of milk card and coloured his face, hair and hands. I added a red suit and a black cape and added him over the house in the original die cut. I cut the frame again in white and added the two ghosts in the corner. I cut the Trick Or Treat sentiment in white and glued it to the middle of the frame. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/4" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
BOO!! Does the Vampire remind anyone else of a Vampire from the past? Was it scooby doo? Or does he look familiar from another comedy from days gone by? Anyway I think these Halloween dies are brilliant and makes me kind of wish it was as big here as it is overseas, love love love this cute comical post today, nothing like starting the day with a smile. Love to all and thanks for the best wishes, a sweet card from our June Horrocks thank you lovely, and yes June Smith I'm getting there, spending days to and from hospitals here and Leeds and a lot of time waiting in out patients clinics, so it's a good job I'm not busy with making cards or I'd be in panic mode lol. Love to all that pass through and please keep well xxx
Hi Sue and lovely wilsonettes x Fantastic card Sue x I love the detail in the frame and the characters look amazing x thankyou Sue x Theresa w in Berks xxx
Hello Sue This is a lovely card today it's a pity we don't do Halloween. My husband and family came home on Sunday so it is lovely to see them.Steph I hope you are on the mend. Hugs to all that visit today x
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another popular halloween card, although I am not into these I can see the wonderful detail from the dies around the whole sample. x
Good Morning Sue. This is a lovely card for those who are Halloween fans. This is not really my thing... But I can't take away the work that goes into these brilliantly thought out samples. Thankyou. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today. Please stay safe and well 🙏 Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
A great post- like a lot of the other comments it’s a shame we don’t do Halloween in the same way others do. However can see these being used for those ‘little monsters’ out there ….
Hi Sue A great fun card for Halloween even the ghosts are cute. Crewe Trish, I’m sure you’re glad to have all the family home again Steph sending you best wishes for all those hospital appointments
Frankie's Back! These ghouls are just too cute and wouldn't scare anyone. I have ordered the collection plus Jamie's and its on the way. I am currently working on Christmas cards with the occasional birthday but will put them aside to play these these gruesome ghoulies. Everyone, wishing you a wonderful day. We had a bad storm go through yesterday afternoon and lost power from 4:30 until nearly 2AM this morning plus our A/C is now blinkly since coming back on so a call to the repair man.Always something, sigh. Steph C. Hope you are doing better & anyone else here feeling poorly, Stephanie K
