A Spooktacular Halloween Card

Halloween cards are always so much fun to create, and the Spooktacular Designer Series Paper makes it especially easy to create a festive card with lots of personality!
For this card, I started with a Basic Black cardstock card base and layered it with Granny Apple Green cardstock and then the Spooktacular DSP. The DSP was cut to 3 7/8" x 5 1/8".

One of my favorite details on this card is the dimensional leaves. I carefully cut the leaves from the Spooktacular DSP and then re-adhered them to the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. This gives the leaves a little extra lift and adds some fun dimension to the otherwise flat DSP background.

For the sentiment, I used one of the Spotlight on Nature Dies to cut the circle. The "BOO to You" sentiment from the Oh My Fright Stamp Set was stamped in Basic Black Hybrid Ink.

To give the circle a little more Halloween color, I sponged the edges with Pumpkin Pie ink using a Sponge Dauber. A few Timid Tiger Sunset Sparkle Sequins add just the right amount of sparkle and finish off the front of the card.

A Little Halloween Fun Inside

I carried the Halloween colors to the inside of the card with a Pumpkin Pie cardstock panel.

The "Happy Halloween" sentiment and the fun cloud of bats are both from the Oh My Fright Stamp Set and were stamped in Basic Black Hybrid Ink.

I love how the inside coordinates with the card front without being overly complicated. Sometimes a simple stamped sentiment and a few images are all you need!

This card is a great example of how you can let Designer Series Paper do most of the work while adding just a few simple details to create a fun and festive handmade Halloween card.

Happy Halloween—and happy stamping!

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!
