Happy Halloween
Hello bloggers! I thought I would share a less scary card that uses the Jack-O-Lantern die set. I covered a piece of white card with a sticky adhesive sheet. I peeled the backing paper off and laid down white pumpkins, alternating the shape and style of the pumpkin. I used Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz on the remaining exposed sticky areas. Using the Double Stitched Rectangles, I cut a thin white frame. I added mounting foam to the back edges and attached it to a piece of white card. I added it to the centre of the card with mounting foam. I cut the Happy Halloween sentiment out of both orange and black card. I shadowed the orange sentiment with the black one and glued it to the inside of the frame. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimension are 7" x 8 1/4" in size.
Good morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another stunningly elegant card, it is always nice to see a mainly white card and layers with just one part of the card in a bright red colour, well done with this one Sue.
Hi Sue I loved seeing all your Halloween cards over the past two days, I didn’t comment because I don’t make these cards and didn’t want my name to go into the draw. Hope someone who will use your fabulous dies is the lucky winner. Love the white on white card with the pumpkin background
Hi Sue, I have enjoyed seeing all the clever Halloween cards and wish you every success with the dies and good luck to everyone that would like to win them. I like today's card with the pumpkins as a frame and they are good value with their changeable faces.
