Hello! Today I have a not-so-scary Pop Up Halloween Card and Video to share. Watch it below or in HD on YouTube:
Look at that spooky spider wearing roller skates! Ha ha…this is probably the scariest spider I have ever colored up.
I love the Spider Stencil in the background…I used a little glitter paste for that.
When you open the card, this little ghost pops up to say “BOO!” I hope you’ll watch the video to see how easy this pop-up mechanism is.

Hello! Today I have a light up ghost card for you with a video! Watch the video below or on YouTube:
Today I’m using specialty paper from Your Paper Insider, but you could also use vellum or any specialty papers you want to try with lights! Please watch the video to see how this came together.
I die cut the ghost on a 5×7 panel of light pink cardstock, added the specialty paper to the back, lined up the One Light from Pear Blossom Press and marked the panel with a light pencil mark to see where I needed to put that “press” stamp. Once I had the placement, I stamped the “Press” with black ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder.
Next, I added some delightful details, like the witches hat, bats, heart and hey boo sentiment cut out of glitter paper.
I love how the heart lights up and the heart diffuses the light a little more. I keep singing “Turn on Your Heart Light” (Neil Diamond fans, anyone?) Ha ha. That was a favorite of my Dad’s, but now it’s stuck in my head.
I just love the extra texture from the specialty paper. If you are interested in a subscription box where you get surprise papers from all around the world, check out Your Paper Insider (I’ve linked them below). I am not an affiliate for them, but I did love the box I got and wanted to share!
For my bonus card of course I wanted to use the pink ghost I cut out from the first card! here I put her together with a broom and pink skull & bones, and a little candy corn shape sprinkle from Doodlebug!
I used a candy corn background for this also, which I stenciled on to a black cardstock panel using oxide inks. Doesn’t it look a little spookier that way?

These cards were so fun and easy to make, and the addition of GLOW PASTE really makes them pop. I have brought in my black light to take pictures of them to show you the glowing backdrops for those kitties.
Aren’t they fun?! To make these cards I started off with the stenciled backgrounds in a few different colors. Then I made the glow paste circles on black cardstock.
I colored all those cute kitties up with Copic markers and used foam tape to attach them to the (dried) black circles.
I stamped the sentiments and the spiderwebs with black ink onto the card panels and put them all onto black cardstock mats.
I really love how these turned out (even if I DID have other card ideas in my head). Sometimes these take on a mind of their own!

Hello! Today I have a new card with a Bear, a Hedgehog and a Broom as a part of my Halloween Card Series. You KNOW I just HAD to make a bear witch! (I love bears)!
Of course I had to use all the critters in this die set, so I made a Bear and a hedgehog card and then I made a bonus fox card!
I just adore these critters! Watch the video to see some easy ways to color up the die cut critters with inks (and a touch of Copic markers).
I love the silver spider web embossed in the background. Each of these characters can hold something in their hands (I love a die with such a great detail)…so I put the broom in the bear’s hands, and a mini pumpkin in the hedgehog’s hands.
I started out with colored cardstock for their witches hats and added detail with ink! It’s easy when you have a beveled brush.
Once I finished this card, I felt like that fox was left out….so I made a bonus card!

Hello! I have a quick Halloween card with some of the cutest ghosts around! Watch the video below or in HD on YouTube:
I love a diamond background, and this is a new stencil from Miss Ink Stamps that creates a larger diamond and a smaller diamond…it also has a stencil layer that gives you the option to add hearts. So cool!
This stamp set has an IRON BURN MARK stamp in it, and I couldn’t resist adding it to that little ghost on the left. Isn’t that so cute?!
