Happy Halloween

A just because card. I decided to make this Halloween card today as I wanted to use this adorable Happy Halloween stamp from Alota.

I used a cream hammered blank card to start with and then used a smaller piece of SU pumpkin pie designer paper. I then stitched around it with black thread.The card frame was made with my cricut and rouge de garance paper. I stamped out the Happy Halloween stamp and then coloured it in with promarkers. I then lightly sponged all over it with a amber chalk ink. It was then layered onto orange card. The "web" and spider were both made from the same paper. I don't have a clue who makes it, sorry. I cut the web from the pattern on the paper but the spider was cut on my cricut. To make the spider hang I used a glittery orange thread. To finish off I added some metallic orange brads and some black ribbon.


Stamp:- Alota Rubber Stamps
Papers:- Rouge de Garance & SU pumpkin pie
Cricut:- Stretch your imagination & Doodlecharms
