It is almost that time of year for all the little trick or treaters to show up at your door!  So I made a fun little Halloween card to share with you today. I used several dies for this card: Spooky Truck, Haunted Ghost House, Hills Slimline and Mountain and Tree Slimline.

Design Steps:

1.  Using the Haunted Ghost House die cut out 4 ghosts.  Use a fine black maker to fill in the eyes
2.  Use the Spooky Truck and cut out the following colors of card stock: orange, brown, and silver.  Assemble the truck with a fine tip glue
3.  Cut out a piece of white card stock 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 stencil in the moon (Stencil is Picket Fence)  Add a mask to the moon and blend in the navy sky.  Use the Hills Slimline cut out brown card stock. Use Mountain and Tree Slimline cut out dark green trees and dark grey mountains 
4.  Glue down the mountains then add the trees and finally the dirt road as shown above
5.  Glue one ghost in the window of the truck.  Then glue to the card being careful not to put glue on the  the fence on the rear of the truck so you can tuck in the two ghosts
6.  Glue the panel to an A2 white card base and then stamp your sentiment.  Your card is complete

Happy Fall

 Hello Friends

I can't wait for fall weather! We have had a really hot summer here in Arizona with very little rain!  So needless to say I am ready for some cool weather!  So I am making some Happy Fall cards to send off to friends and family!  I am featuring the Fall Gate with Flowers, Harvest Pumpkins and the Fall Barrel (sunflowers)

 Background Photo by Freepiks

Design Steps:

1.  Start with an 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 piece of white card stock stenciled with clouds. Create the gate using the Fall Gate die and wood grain DP.  I used dark brown ink to add contrast to the pieces on the front of the gate and the posts. Glue the gate together with a fine tip glue.  Add a layer of grass to the bottom careful not to glue down the top of the grass so you can stick in the picket fence.  After the picket fence add the gate.  I add another layer of grass in front of the gate
2.  Using the Fall Barrel die and the Harvest Pumpkins die cut out yellow, green, brown, and orange card stock.  Ink the edges of the flowers and pumpkins then assemble
3.  Slip the sunflowers in behind the fence and slip the pumpkins in the grass as shown above
4.  Glue to the panel to a white A2 card base and add the sentiment and your card is complete
