Radiant Sunflower, Sunflower Fields, Birthday Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a fall birthday card to share with you. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top.

I cut a 4' x 5-1/4" piece of Golden Glow card stock for the largest layer and I taped it to the front of the card.

Then I cut a 4-1/2" x 2-3/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Sunflower Fields" 12" x 12" package. I taped it to the Gold Glow piece with equal spacing at the sides and top.

Next I took a 3" x 3-3/4" piece of Basic White card stock and textured it using the leaves folder from the "Seasonal Cheer" mini embossing folder set. There is a folder in there with bats on it and I forgot all about it or I would have used it more on my Halloween cards.  Oh well, I'm planning on keeping the set so I'll probably be using it next year.

I cut a 1-1/2" x 3" strip of DSP from the same package. I glued it to the left side of the embossed piece. It's about 1/4" from the left edge. Then that piece was glued to the front of the card on top of the DSP, creating equal spacing on the sides and top.

The circle was cut next. I used the third one in the "Stylish Shapes" set. The words were stamped on it next. They are from the "Cutest Crew" bundle and were stamped using Early Espresso ink. I stamped them to the left so I'd have room for the flowers.

I created the flowers next. I cut them from dies in the "Radiant Sunflower" bundle. I cut one from some DSP and the other from Cajun Craze card stock. The stem is from Mossy Meadow. I glued the stem down first and then the flowers. I was careful not to add glue to the back of the petals where they wouldn't be touching anything.

Dimensionals were added to the back of the circle and it was set in place on the front of the card and the card was done.

This was a fun card to make. I love cards with layers and this one had four, plus the circle!

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's birthday card,

Oh My Fright, Spooktacular, Halloween Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Halloween card to share with you. I didn't take a very long break from making Halloween cards but I saw this cute one and had to make it. I found it on Pinterest. You can see the original card by clicking here. Please read on to see how it was made. I changed it a bit because I didn't want to make that type of fold. I don't often do fun folds because many of the people who get the cards don't know how to open them, so I just make standard opening cards. 

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic Black card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White and taped it to the inside of the card.

On the front right I cut a 4" x 4" piece of Basic White card stock and on top of that is a 3-3/4" x 3-3/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Spooktacular"  6" x 6" package. I taped the two pieces together and then taped that to the front of the card using equal spacing on the top, right and bottom.

On the left side I cut a 1" x 4" strip of DSP from the same package. I taped it to the left side.

Next I stamped the ghost from the "Oh My Fright" bundle. I hadn't used that image yet. I stamped the ghost on the Basic White piece using Smoky Slate ink. The words are from the same bundle and were stamped using Crushed Curry ink. I cut them out using a die from the "Stylish Shapes" set. I used a retired circle die to cut the Basic Black layer. I taped the circles together.

I cut a piece of ribbon and taped the ends together. I ended up making two loops because I cut my piece of ribbon too long. I thought I'd just add two to use it up because it was so small that I probably would have ended up tossing it at a later date. I added tape to the upper left on the back so I could set the ribbons in place. I laid the ribbons on my worktable and then set the circle in place.  I turned the circle over and added tape all over the place. I set the circle in place on the front of the card.

The cute embellishments are from the "Bats, Ghosts & Dots" adhesive-backed package. And that was it, the card was done.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Halloween card,

Sunflower Fields, Radiant Sunflower, Thinking of You Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have another card using some parts sitting around. Please read on to see how the card was made.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Mossy Meadow card stock. It opens in the right and the fold is on the left. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and taped it to the inside.  

The front of the card I had a piece that was leftover from a card a made a while ago. You can see that card by clicking here.  I had cut the Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Sunflower Field" 12" x 12" package. The two pieces of DSP were cut at 4" x 4". They were cut along the diagonal at 1" from the opposite sides. When I cut the second piece, I cut the diagonal on the opposite direction. To clarify, I marked the right side down 1" from the top and on the opposite side, the left side, I marked it at 1" from the bottom. And for the other sheet I marked the upper left and bottom right. Once cut at the 1" mark, I taped the top piece to a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and the other piece was taped to the bottom.  There were two extra pieces left and those were used on today's card. I had already taped them to a piece of Basic White card stock and it was ready for a future card. I taped this to the front of the card base.

I cut the circle from the "Spotlight on Nature" and stamped it using the words from the "Radiant Sunflower" bundle using Early Espresso ink. Much like yesterday's card.

I made the same flowers like yesterday's card. There was an extra small flower because the die cut two and and an extra base because the die cut two. 

The leaves were cut using Mossy Meadow card stock. The flowers are from Crushed Curry card stock. The flower centers are from Early Espresso card stock. I glued the centers of the flowers in place. I added tape to the back of the vase and set the leaves in place. Then tape was added to the back of the flowers and they were set in place. Once I arranged them to how I thought they looked the best, I added glue to the back and set it in place on the circle. I made sure I didn't cover the words.

Dimensionals were added to the back of the circle and it was set in place on the center of the card. I tied a linen bow and glued it to the vase and the card was done.

It was nice to get these pieces uses and off my worktable before they got ruined.

This was a fun, quick and easy card to make. 

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's thinking of you card,

Radiant Sunflower, Sunflower Fields, Thinking of You Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a thinking of you card to share with you. I found it on Pinterest. It was the embossed background that drew me to this card. You can see the original card by clicking here. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and textured it using the "Softly Woven" embossing folder. I glued it to the card base.

Next I cut the top layers. I used Cajun Craze for the large layer. On top of that is a piece of Designer Series Paper (DPS) from the "Sunflower Fields" 12" x 12" package. I taped the DSP to the Cajun Craze piece and then that was glued to the front of the card, centering it as much as I could be eyeing it.  

The circle is from the "Spotlight on Nature" dies. I stamped the words from the "Radiant Sunflower" bundle using Early Espresso ink. I set it aside.

The vase was cut next from another piece of DSP in the same package. The die cuts two at a time so I cut two. I'm sure I'll find a use for the other one. I cut two stems from Mossy Meadow card stock. Then I cut the flowers from Crushed Curry card stock and the centers from Early Espresso card stock. I glued the center of the flowers on.

I added a little tape to the back of the vase and added the stems. Then I added the flowers with a little bit of tape. I turned them over and arranged them to look nice. I laid it on top of the circle to see where the words would go. I stamped the words from the "Radiant Sunflower" bundle using Early Espresso ink. Then I turned the flowers and vase back over and added glue. I set the piece in place on the circle, making sure the words weren't covered.

I added Dimensionals to the back of the circle and set it in place on the front of the card.  I set the circle in place on the front of the card, centering it as much as I could by eyeing it. 

A linen bow was tied and glued to the top of the vase and the card was done.

This was a pretty easy and quick card to make. I still like the textured background.  

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's thinking of you card,

Frightfully Fun, Halloween Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a fun Halloween card to share with you. It's fun because of the layout. I struggled with it the first time I worked it but it was okay because I worked it on copier paper. I like to have a physical sample for later use. I add the date I used it so I can go back and view it for reference. Please read on to see how the card was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic Black card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and taped it to the inside.

A 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic Black card stock was cut to build the pieces on.

On the front, I cut a 2-1/8" x 2-1/8" piece of Basic White card stock for the focal piece. I marked the center of the card so I could add the square and have it centered. I was a little off on the lower left. You really need to be spot on with centering. Next time the pencil comes out! LOL I taped that square to the center and then began adding the Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Frightfully Fun" 12" x 12" package.  I started with the upper left piece. I lined the bottom edge of that piece along the line with the center square. The excess was trimmed off.

The bottom right was added next and it was trimmed. Then the other two corners were added. 

On the center I lightly scrubbed on some pumpkin pie ink. Then I used a sticker from the "Frightfully Fun" sticker package. The bats and words are also from that same sticker package. 

I added some white dots from the "Bats, Ghosts & Dots" package and the card was done.

Once I figured out how to add the pieces, it was easier to make. I can't wait to try this with a fall and Christmas card.  

I'm taking a break from Halloween cards for now. I may add one or two more before the end of the month but for now, I'm done.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Halloween card,

Frightfully Fun, Oh My Fright, Halloween Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I'm going to share with you two Halloween cards. I might make a couple more Halloween cards this week and then I'm going to move onto some fall cards. I have plenty of Halloween cards and I'm kind of getting burnt out on making them. PLUS, I want to make fall and Christmas cards! Please read on to see how I made today's card.

The bases of both cards is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. The top large layer is a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and was textured using the "Swirls of Magic" embossing folder. I was able to texture both pieces at the same time. That embossing folder is very long.  I glued the textured piece to the front of the card.

Next I cut the Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Frightfully Fun" 12" x 12" package of Designer Series Paper (DSP). They measure 3-1/4" x 3-1/4". The layer behind the DSP is Basic Black and measures 3-1/2" x 3-1/2". I taped the two layers together and added Dimensionals to the back. I set the piece in place on the front of the card with equal spacing on the top and each side.

Earlier this month I had stamped the words that were used on both cards and had extras.  The words are from the "Oh My Fright" bundle. I had die cut the Pumpkin Pie colored one using a die from the "Banner Sayings" set and the other was just cut on the paper cutter. It measures 2-1/8" x 1-1/4" and is on Basic White card stock. I set both word pieces in place using Dimensionals.

On the cat image I added some dots from the "Bats, Ghosts & Dots" embellishments package. I chose the cat image because I found it to be very challenging and it was the perfect way to use it! 

And on the ghost DSP card, I added some bats from the same package of embellishments. And that was it!

These were very quick and easy cards to make. I'm still doing the quick and easy due to my finger injury. It's getting SO much better. A few more days and I should be able to leave the bandage off (hopefully).  I did find an interesting layout and I think I'm going to give it a try for tomorrow. It's got more pieces and not quite as quick. I hope it turns out because I haven't been able to find any instructions or measurements on this layout!  Now I know you're excited to come back tomorrow to see what!

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Halloween cards,

Spooktacular, Halloween Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Halloween card to share with you that I found on Pinterest. You can see the original card by clicking here. I just like this simple layout and being it used some Halloween Designer Series Paper (DSP) I wanted to try it out even more. Please read on to see how the card was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Pumpkin Pie card stock. A 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock was taped to the inside. I'm still up in the air if I want to stamp "Happy Halloween" on the inside. I probably will.

On the front, a strip of DSP from the "Spooktacular" 6" x 6" package was cut at 1-3/4" x 5-1/2".  I taped it to the center of the card.

The pumpkin face is from the same package of DSP and it measures 3" x 3". I cut a piece of Granny Apple Green card stock at 3-1/8" x 3-1/8". I taped the two pieces together.

A 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" piece of Basic Black card stock and the Granny Apple Green layers were taped on top. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set in place on the center of the card.

The embellishments are from the "Bats, Ghosts & Dots" package. I used a couple black dots and a ghost from that package and the card was done.

With the first craft fair done, I feel like I have some time to breathe again (till the next one). I have five weeks until the next one. It's my largest one and then one in December. I've never done that one before so I'm not sure what I'm getting into. I signed on hoping to just deplete a lot of inventory at the end of the crafting season.  

Update on the finger. It still hurts and it's still being kept from bending, bending is not a good thing yet. Hopefully it will start to feel better soon.  So in the meantime I will be making simple cards. Even typing is a bit of a struggle. 

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Halloween card,

Oh My Fright, Frightfully Fun, Halloween Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Halloween card to share with you. I found it on Pinterest and thought it would be quick and easy to make. I need quick and easy right now since I have an injury on my finger. I have been making a lot of knitted beanies and they need pom poms.  (I'll post a pic of the beanies once I finish the last few).While trimming one, I cut the middle knuckle on my forefinger. The one that turns light switches on! You forget how much you need your fingers. It's a pretty deep cut and it's very painful. It's about 1/4" wide and football shaped. It's not in a good spot for stitches because of the bend. So it's got a bandage on it and painter's tape over that for two reasons. One to help keep the bandage on and two to help keep my finger straight. Every bend cause it to bleed again. So it's going to take a while to heal but for the next couple of days I will be doing simple cards. You can see the original card by clicking here.  Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Pumpkin Pie card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top. I cut two pieces of Basic White card stock. One taped to the inside and one taped on the front.

I cut a piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Frightfully Fun" 12" x 12" package. This piece measures 3-7/8" x 5-1/8". On top of that is a piece of Basic White card stock that measures 4-3/4" x 3-1/2". I textured it using the "Swirls of Magic" embossing folder. Using a blending brush, I scrubbed on some Pumpkin Pie ink and then I taped it to the DSP. That was then taped to the front of the card.

I cut the tree and bats from Basic Black card stock that had double-sided tape on the back. They are from the "Oh My Fright" bundle. I cut the ghost using Basic White card stock.

I set the tree in place and then the ghost was glued on.

The words are from the same bundle and were stamped using Basic Black ink. I added the stars from an image in the set. Crushed Curry ink was used for that. The piece measures 2-1/8" x 1-1/4" and it was taped to a 2-1/4" x 4-3/8" piece of Basic Black card stock. Dimensionals were added to the back and it was set in place on the front of the card.

The bats were added next and I colored the eyes in using the light Real Red Blends pen. And the card was done.

This was a simple and quick card to make and my finger didn't hurt until I started typing this! OUCH! 

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Halloween card,

Oh My Fright, Halloween Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Halloween card to share with you. I found a card on Pinterest that used the tag in the "Oh My Fright" bundle.  I changed the card a little. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Pumpkin Pie card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. I cut a 4" x 5-/4" piece of Basic White card stock and taped it to the inside.

Then I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic Black card stock that will be added to the front later.

I cut three strips of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Frightfully Fun" 12" x 12" package. My strips are from three different designs and I cut them at 3-3/4" x 1-5/8" each. I made three cards using this layout. I taped these strips to the Basic Black piece and then it was taped to the front of the card base.

The tag was die cut next and the spider webs were stamped using Basic Black ink. I die cut the bats and star pieces. The bats were cut from Basic Black card stock and the stars from Crushed Curry card stock. I glued the pieces in place. As usual, I colored in the bats eyes using my Real Red marker. Dimensionals were added to the back of the tag and it was set in place on the left side of the card. 

I stamped the words next using Basic Black ink. The stars were stamped using Crushed Curry ink. Dimensionals were added to the right side and tape to the left and it was set in place on the front of the card.

A cute bat was added from the "Bats, Ghosts and Dots" package. I also added a few of the dots too. It will be nice not to have a ton of those left in the package when the cute bats and ghosts were used up. 

This was a fun, quick and easy card to make. I have one that will be heading to the mailbox for a special friend.

Oh My Fright, Halloween Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Halloween card to share with you. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic Black card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut two pieces of Basic White card stock that measure 4" x 5-1/4".  I taped one to the inside and the other I covered with ink!

I took a scrap piece of copier paper and cut it to 4" x 5-1/4". I punched a 1-1/2" hole on the upper left area of it.  I laid the copier paper over the Basic White piece and colored it using Daffodil Delight ink. I kept the circle that was punched out, removable tape was added to the back and I set it in place over the Daffodil Delight moon I created.

Then I used Crushed Curry ink to go around the moon. After that I used Cajun Craze to go a bit further outside the moon. Towards the bottom area I couldn't make circles so I made elongated "U" shaped swipes to get the color down on the card stock. 

For the final color I used Blackberry Bliss on the outer edges to give it that glow and to draw your eyes towards the moon.

The tree is from the "Oh My Fright" bundle and was cut using Basic Black card stock that I had added a double sided sticky sheet behind it. Once cut I laid it on top of the inked piece to see where the words would look best. 

The words are from the same bundle and were stamped using Blackberry Bliss. I considered about using Basic Black ink but I thought it would look too dark and would take away from that glow I was creating. I was glad I didn't use the black, this looked perfect on there. Not too dark but dark enough to read.

The tree was then set in place.

I die cut a set of bats from the same bundle and set them in place on the card. I took a Real Red marker and colored in the eyes. I taped the piece to the front of the card base and the card was done.

I love the colors on here. This was a very quick and easy card to make. I got the glow I was looking for and I think it turned out well.

Oh My Fright, Frightfully Fun, Halloween Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Halloween card to share with you that I found on Pinterest. You can see the original card here. I chose to make this card because of the ghost Designer Series Paper (DSP). I found it a design that for me was difficult to work with, so when I saw this card I thought I'd give it a try. You can see the original card by clicking here.  Please read on to see how the card was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Pumpkin Pie card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock  and taped it to the inside. 

Now it's time to cut the layers. The large Basic Black layer measures 3-3/4" x 5". On top of that is a piece of DSP from the "Frightfully Fun" 12" x 12" package. It measures 3-1/2" x 4-3/4".  I taped the tow pieces together and then taped that to the front of the card. I centered it as much as I could by eyeing it. 

The strip was cut next. It measures 4-1/4" x 1-3/4" and it was taped to the center of the card. 

The smaller Basic Black layer was cut and it measured 2-3/4" x 3-3/4". On top of that is the ghost paper from the same package of DSP. It measures 2-1/2" x 3-3/4". I taped the two pieces together and then taped that to the front of the card, centering it as much as I could by eyeing it. 

The words are from the "Oh My Fright" bundle and were stamped using Basic Black ink on Pumpkin Pie card stock. I used a retired die to cut them out. It was from the "Banner Sayings" bundle. The words are still available but not the die cuts that went with them.  I set them in place using dimensionals.

Using the die from the "Oh My Fright" bundle I cut the ghost out from Basic White card stock. I set it in place using dimensionals.

I added a few bats from the "Bats, Ghosts and Dots" package, plus one dot over the "i" in trick and the cared was done.

This was a pretty easy card to make. It's got lots of layers, which is what I love and it used the ghost DSP that I had found difficult to work with!

Thank you SO much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Halloween card,

Radiant Sunflowers, Sunflower Fields, Thinking of You Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a thinking of you card to share with you.  Were you surprised it wasn't a Halloween card?  There's just a little over 3 weeks until Halloween and I still have Halloween Designer Series Paper (DSP) left to use and maybe I can get it done by the end of the month. I could if I make duplicate cards (now there's a thought!).  Pleas read on to see how today's card was made.

On the 8th I made a card using the "Sunflower Fields" DSP and I had messed up the orientation of the pieces and ended up with those pieces sitting on my worktable. I decided to put them together and make a card. I get the pieces safely off my worktable and a card gets created.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Early Espresso card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top. I cut two pieces of Basic White card stock that measures 4" x 5-1/4". I taped one to the outside. 

On the other piece I taped the DSP that was precut. The pieces measure 3" on the longest side (the top), the right edge measures 4" and the bottom measures 1". On the left piece the top is 3", the side is 4" and the bottom is 1".  I overlapped the right floral piece over the left piece.

This left me a white opening on the bottom area that I wasn't sure what I was going to do with.

I decided to cut a circle from the "Spotlight on Nature" piece and then taped it to a Early Espresso piece that I cut from the same die set. 

The flowers are from the "Radiant Sunflowers" bundle. I cut one using Crushed Curry and the other from Cajun Craze. The centers are cut using Early Espresso card stock and the leaves and stem are from Mossy Meadow card stock. I glued the center to the two flowers.

I glued the stem and then the Crushed Curry flower.  The other flower was set in place using a dimensional. 

Dimensionals were added to the back of the circle piece and I laid it on top of the card so I could see where the words would go.

The words are from the "Radiant Sunflowers" bundle and were stamped using Early Espresso ink. After stamping the words I removed the backing from the circle piece and set it in place on the front of the card and the card was done.

This was a quick and easy card to make. And it did help that pieces were already made. The best part was that the pieces that were mistakes became a card that I am happy to send!

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's thinking of you card,

Frightfully Fun, Oh My Fright, Frightfully Fun Times, Halloween Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today's card has absolutely no stamping on it. It's rare but kind of fun to not have stamping. Nothing much to clean up either! Please read on to see how the card was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic Black card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and taped it to the inside of the card.

On the front I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Frightfully Fun" 12" x 12" package. I taped it to the front of the card.

I die cut the tree and bats from the "Oh My Fright" bundle using Basic Black card stock that I had added a double-sided sticky sheet to (before cutting). I set them aside.

When looking at the dies in the "Oh My Fright" bundle I noticed the cloud dies. Why didn't I see them before? I guess I was just looking at the bats and tree, not giving the other dies a second look.  I cut out one of each and set them aside. 

The moon and words are from the "Frightfully Fun Times" sticker package. I set the moon in place. I trimmed the small cloud to fit around the moon's shape. Then I added the other moon. I used glue to set them in place.

The tree was set in place next and then the bats. I took my Cherry Cobbler marker and gave the bats deep red eyes.

The "spooky" is from the sticker set. I added Dimensionals to the back and then took some baby powder on a brush and covered the exposed sticky on the piece. I removed the backing on the Dimensionals and set the piece in place at the base of the trunk. I opted to put it there because the tree looked like it was just floating in air and looked so out of place. It still looks like it's floating but not as much, it's not so noticeable but it is now because I pointed it out to you.

This was a fun card to make and it was so uncommon for me to make one without using any ink.

Thank you SO much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Halloween card,

Frightfully Fun, Frightfully Fun Times, Halloween Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a Halloween card to share with you. It's pretty quick and easy to make and with a layout I rarely use. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic Black card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left. I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and taped it to the inside.

On the front I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Frightfully Fun" 12" x 12" package. I taped it to the front.

Next I cut a piece of Basic Black card stock using the 5th die in the "Party Banners" set. 

The DSP strip on top is from the same package and was cut at 4-3/4" x 1-3/4". I used the same banner die at the bottom so I could get that nice "V" look. There was no die in the set that would fit the width of the piece I cut. I didn't think about it before I cut the strip. I had no idea where I was going with the card or I would have cut it to fit that die to get the rounded tip. It is what it is and it still looks okay.  I centered the strip on the Basic Black piece. I turned it over and added dimensionals. 

The "Happy Halloween" is from the "Frightfully Fun Times" sticker sheet. I affixed it to the banner/strip piece. The bottom of the word piece is about 3/4" from the tip of the Basic Black piece. The word piece stuck over the edges of the Basic Black piece. I used some baby powder to stop those edges from being sticky. 

I removed the backing from the back of the layered piece and centered it on the front of the card.

There are some cute little ghosts on the sticky sheet and I thought one would look nice on the card. 

Using the ghosts and white dots from the "Bats, Ghosts & Dots" package, I added a few to the card and the card was done.

This was a super quick and easy card to make. It was a different layout for me to use but it was fun.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Halloween card,
