BOO to You! A Spooky Shutter Card

Who says Halloween cards have to be scary? This fun Shutter Card combines spooky ghosts, creepy-crawly bats, and a big, friendly “BOO to you” for a Halloween card that is full of personality!

I started with a Basic Black cardstock card base and added strips of Frightfully Fun Designer Series Paper to create the Shutter Card design. The combination of the orange starry pattern with the spooky black-and-gray patterns creates lots of visual interest while keeping the Halloween theme going from edge to edge.

For the focal point, I cut a square from Basic White cardstock using one of the Stylish Shapes dies. The “BOO to you” sentiment from the Oh My Fright stamp set was stamped in Basic Black Hybrid ink.

The ghosts were fussy cut from the Frightfully Fun Designer Series Paper and added around the sentiment. I popped one of the ghosts up using a Black Stampin’ Dimensional, giving the card just a bit of extra dimension.

Of course, a Halloween card needs plenty of creepy-crawly friends! The swirly accent and bats were cut from Basic Black cardstock using the Oh My Fright dies, while the spider was cut using the Web of Fun dies. I also added a few black dots from the Adhesive-Backed Bats, Ghosts and Dots embellishments to complete the design.

A Little More Halloween Fun Inside

The inside keeps the spooky theme going with another sentiment and a fun cloud of bats from the Oh My Fright stamp set. Both were stamped in Basic Black Hybrid ink.

I love how all the different elements—from the fussy-cut ghosts to the bats, spider, and spooky DSP—come together to create a card that is unmistakably Halloween!

This was such a fun card to make, and the Frightfully Fun Designer Series Paper makes it easy to add lots of spooky details without having to stamp every element yourself.

BOO to you—and happy Halloween crafting!

Halloween Blog Hop - BOO! A Frightfully Fun Halloween Card

Welcome to the Halloween Theme Blog Hop! I’m so glad you’re joining us for some creative inspiration. Today I’m sharing a fun and festive Halloween card featuring the Frightfully Fun Designer Series Paper and lots of spooky little details.

There’s something about Halloween cards that makes it perfectly acceptable to add BOO in big, bold letters! 

For this card, I started with a Basic Black cardstock card base and added a layer of Frightfully Fun Designer Series Paper. The orange spiderweb background makes the perfect backdrop for all the spooky elements.

The oversized BOO was cut from Basic Black cardstock using the Party Alphabet dies. I love how the large letters fill the card front and create a fun focal point.

The little ghosts peeking out from behind the letters are actually fussy cut from the Frightfully Fun Designer Series Paper. They were just too cute to leave on the sheet! I added a few bats, cut from Basic Black cardstock using the Oh My Fright dies, to give the ghosts some company.

For a little sparkle, I added Timid Tiger sequins from the Sunset Sparkle Sequins. They add just the right amount of Halloween shine without taking away from the bold design.

I carried the Halloween colors to the inside of the card, too. A Pumpkin Pie cardstock panel was adhered to the Basic Black card base, followed by a Basic White panel for the writing area.

The sentiment and the fun cloud of flying bats are both from the Oh My Fright stamp set and were stamped in Basic Black Hybrid ink. I love how the inside continues the spooky theme while still leaving plenty of room for a personal message.

This card was such a fun combination of bold letters, cute ghosts, flying bats, and a little sparkle. Sometimes a simple color combination of black, orange, and white is all you need to create a fabulous Halloween card!
