Hello! I have two more Halloween cards for you today. Both were made for specific people in mind. The first one I made for a friend that I have known for almost 40 years ... that makes me feel old ... anyway, she loves the vintage look and a while back I picked up a paper that had this little scene on it of vintage Halloween kids, thinking maybe I could create a card with it. I didn't quite know what to put with it, so I ended up just using it as a printed panel, and then added my Halloween part to it. Let me show you so you can see what I mean ... enjoy!
It's kinda different, but I actually like it! The stars on the panel were a perfect place to add some ghosts. What do you think?
The second one I am going to give to my hubby. I have this 6 x 6 pack of Halloween paper from Best Creation, and in it was these two decorated big round scallop circles that I originally thought about making into a big round card, but I decided it wasn't heavy enough cardstock to really make it work, and in my creating process, I got an idea and cut it in half, immediately realizing that if the new idea didn't work, the original idea was now gone forever. So, guess what? I made the new idea work! The circle cut in half was too large so I cut it down more and ended up using two halfs on a square card. Adding my little vampire stamp with a sentiment on his cape and we are happy. Let me show and you can be the judge! Enjoy!
What do you think? I like it, square card and all! Inside, I used the sentiment "Boo-Frickety-Hoo" and added under it "I-Love-You"! It rhymes! Fun!
