Halloween card for design team

I am on the design team for Wimsical Scraps and Bugs. For our first "Celebration" Challenge....
we were assigned a 3-2-1 Challenge!

3 Colors.... Orange, Purple & Black
2 Stars.... from any Cricut Cart you have
1 Stamped Image

This is what I came up with. The pumpkins are circles and ovals from George, the starts are also from George and the bats are from PDDU. The stamped image is from Stamp up! This card will actually be given to Merrill for letting me borrow her stampin up stamps. I hope she likes it. The ribbon in the upper left hand corner and the pumpkin paper on the inside came from my dear dear friend Joy Sikes who sent me a bunch of goodies. Thank you Joy!

Thank you for commenting and I hope you like it.

floating ghost halloween card

OH OH OH, I am so excited for you to see this card! Oh I am just so proud of this card. I have had this card pictured in my head for days now, I just wasn't sure that I could make it all come together the way I wanted it to. I am so proud that it turned out right. I am also glad that it worked out that this could be and Jeannie/Vicki challenge card. Jeannie and I decided that it had been too long since we did a challenge card together so here is what we came up with. I picked the ghost from PDDU but didn't realize that there were two ghost on that cart so I made sure that I used them both on this card. I knew that I wanted my ghost to be suspended in mid air like it was flying but I wasn't sure how to pull this off. Well I actually worked with my wedding card idea and came up with the idea to hang the ghost from invisible thread and hang him from the center of cut out on the card. I hope the pictures really show how he is just floating in the air. I added layers of the zooballo grass behind of the ghost. I hope you can see that there are several layers of the grass. I inked around the edges to make it look better and of course I used lots and lots of pop up glue dots. I also added a spider to the grass area because what kind of card would a halloween card be without a spider. I also added two of the pumkins from PDDU and layered them and popped them up too and then I cut out ivy and inked and glued it around the pumkins. Added a moon and the word BOO to the left side and bats and stars to the right side. This obviously is a card that does better being left open. Go figure, a card that looks better on the inside than on the outside. On the outside of the card I added the cat, tombstone and other ghost from PDDU. I also put a lot of the inked ivy around the cat on this part as well. This card was way too much fun to make. I love it when I make a card that I am really excited about seeing it when it is done. I hope you like it and please be sure and leave me a comment. They mean so much to me....

A spider and it's web- Vicki's take

This is a Jeannie-Vicki challenge card. I needed something other than wedding stuff to do today. Although I have went and got the arbor and am in the process of putting the flowers on it tonight. I will post pictures of it as soon as I am finished. But back to this card. I wanted to do a fun card so I suggested to Jeannie that we do a halloween card and use the spider and webb from PDDU. Well when I started the rest of the card evolved and the poor ol spider was no longer the focal point. This is what is so cool about this card. I used glow in the dark stickles on the skeleton, moon and web. This is so cool, it really glows in the dark. I have been running all around this house trying to get my silly camera to take a picture of how cool this really is. It is the coolest thing to turn off the light and watch it glow. I want to do one of my wedding cards glow in the dark now.....lol....I am actually thinking about putting some stickles on me tonight when Todd and I go to bed, lol... bet he would get a laugh out of that....Reminds me of the glow in the dark silly putty that I had as a kid and was all the time sneaking in my younger brothers room at night, he would scream..... ah the good memories of torturing my brother....lol....almost as funny as him trying to get the marble out of a can of spray paint, now that is a funny story. His body was siluited on the car....way to funny.... anyway, I hope you enjoy this card, it was a lot of fun to make, wish you could see it glow.

PDDU- skeleton at 3" , tree at 4" spider at 2", web at 2", cat at 3" cut three times and layered, moon at 2 1/2". The spider and web on the inside is cut at 3 1/2"

Wild card- Boo cut at 4 " and Happy Halloween cut at 4"

Thank you for looking and thank you for commenting....Happy glowing!

Happy Halloween

This is a Jeannie/Vicki Challenge card. I needed a break from wedding stuff today so I said something to Jeannie about we need to do a card and she wanted to make one too. I only had flowers and rings on my mind so I told Jeannie I couldn't come up with something to do so she took on the task of finding us our next cut. She picked one of the trees from Stretch Your Imagination. As soon as I looked at the cart I knew exactly what tree I was going to use. I have been seeing all the halloween and fall cards that all of you are posting and that inspired me. I have know from day one of getting Pooh and Friends that I wanted to use those pumpkins so it all worked out just fine. I am really proud of this card. I love the paper, this is the new fall pack of paper from DCWV called Indian Summer. I absolutely love it. When I saw it I knew those orange colors would make perfect pumpkins. I hope you enjoy looking at this one as much as I enjoyed making it. Thank you for looking and thank you for commenting. Thank you Jeannie for getting my mind off of wedding stuff....

SYI- tree cut at 3 1/2" twice and layered- the I cut out the leaves and just glued them wherever I thought needed a leaf

PDDU- cat cut in black- because halloween cats need to be black- I used my white gel pen for his face. The cat is cut at 3". The moon is also PDDU and is cut 3 times on flip and layered with glue dots. The bats are cut at 1 1/2" Pumkin on the inside is cut at 3"

Pooh and Friends. The pumpkins are cut at 2 3/4" once in green and three times with the layers. I alternated what color paper I was going to use for the top of the pumkins so all three would be different.

Wild Card- the word Boo on the front of the card is cut at 3" and the Happy Halloween on the inside is cut at 5".
