Hello everyone! Halloween will soon be upon us and I love making Halloween cards. I really miss this holiday. The Halloween Parade in NYC, the costumes, all the decorations in the stores and on the streets. But, most of all, I miss Candy Corn. LOL
I started by making a top-folding A2 card to which I adhered one of the Halloween papers from the Halloween Market paper from Carta Bella. Then I stamped the Skulls Stack image on white cardstock, die cut it with a rectangle die, layered it on a piece of black cardstock and then on to the card front.
Then I stamped a sentiment from my stash and cut it out with a banner die. Layered it on a piece of black cardstock and adhered it to the card front.
Next, I adhered googly eyes to each of the skulls. Yes, Debra....sorry! LOL
And Orange Stickles by Ranger to the letters.
And...DONE! Believe it or not, those eyes did not take long to glue down.

Hi Michael from NYC! (((waving)))
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this card!! I want to make it and with the eyes...I will have to hunt for that stamp on ebay!
If you seriously miss candy corm let Anna know at the store and she can tell me and I will ship it to you! It is basically indestructible so shipping wont hurt it. LoL
You are not missing the parade with the pandemic it did not happen. We will see this year
hugs Margot
Hiiiiiii Margot! How are you?? Glad you LOVE this card. It's such a great stamp. I think they need to come out with it again. Thanks for your offer but I did get some from a friend and, honestly, the shipping to here would kill you! Hope you are well.
