Product used:

•  the ghosts, pumpkin and striped trim are from the Cute Halloween designer paper in the Holiday catalog.  See it here. 
• I punched one of the ghosts and the pumpkin with the Halloween punch. It's in a bundle with the Cutest Halloween set seen here or on page 51, which is where the greeting is from. *Sadly the Halloween punch is now on back-order until November!
• the wreath & bats are die-cut with the Seasonal Swirl dies seen here & Black Glimmer paper in the annual catalog; seen here
• the ombre background is actually Fresh Freesia CS, with Misty Moonlight & Night of Navy added with our Blending Brushes *watch the video below
• Cute Stars Adhesive-backed sequins are also added to the wreath

Check out the ghostly treat box in the photo above.  It's so simple to make with the Pretty Pillow box dies!

Save

The stitched tag is also in the Pretty Pillow Box dies.  Look how it latches – the scalloped front slips in behind the tag in front.  I love that I don't need a special way to keep it closed; the tag does it for me!

Check out the other version I made with the fun skeletons on the right?  I fussy cut them from the Cute Halloween paper.

Measurements:

• White 4 ¼” X 11” scored at 5 ½”, cut 1 ¾” from the right
• Black 5 ½” X 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”,
• White & Fresh Freesia 3 ¾” X 4 ¾”, Black ½” X 4” strip for greeting
• Cute Halloween DSP ½” strips

I haven't shared this for awhile so here it is; my favorite cutting template especially for inside a card.  Get 5 pieces from one 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of card stock. If you're making multiples this can save you a lot!

Below is the video.  I make another project using Sparkle of the Season before this one. Fast forward to about 22 minutes in to see this neat Halloween card.

  I have two more fabulous swap cards to share with you from our September Team swaps.  My Flowerbug's are so talented and creative. 

  Paula made a Waterfall card!  These are not difficult but a bit intimidating maybe….  I shared a FB Live video here on how to make one.  

  She featured the Scary Cute bundle seen here as well as the Black & White designs DSP here.  The colors are Black, White & Gorgeous Grape.  

  Save

  She also used the Blossoming Happiness dies for her bottom border so she'd have a spot to add the Orchid Oasis 1/8" metallic ribbon for the pull.  

  Save

  Measurements: 

  • Black card 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
  • Basic Gray strip 5 1/2" X 1 1/4", waterfall strip is 2 1/2" X 10" scored at 5 1/4", 6", 6 3/4" & 7 1/2"
  • Gorgeous Grape squares are 2 1/2"
  • White squares are 2 1/4"
  • DSP is 4" X 5 1/4"

  Here's a peak of the last inside panel with the die-cut & spooky scene.  She stamped the greeting on the long inside strip.  

  Save

  Again, if you want to know how to make one of these waterfall cards check out my video here.

  Next is a colorful Halloween card made by Sharon using this same bundle.  She also added stamps from the Best Witches & Bewitching stamp sets. 

  Save

  Her colors include Rich Razzleberry, Parakeet Party, Black & Daffodil Delight.  She used the Deckle dies for her front layers and inside as well.  

  Save

  Here's a photo of this cute bundle.  Click on it to see it in my store.

  I hope you're enjoying these card swaps and getting inspired by them too!  There's lots more to come!!

  My Flowerbug's Team amazes me with their incredible card swaps; each and every month their cards are super fabulous!  I shouldn't be surprised at this point!  

  Our September Team card swap featured Halloween or Fall cards and I'll be featuring them for the next several days.  

  Annette made this first card with the Best Witches stamp set seen here.  Look at her amazing coloring!

  Save

  The colors include Highland Heather, Black & a bit of Granny Apple Green on the frog.  She used Blends markers for her coloring.  Love that face!

  The designer is our Black & White Designs from the Holiday catalog.  The circles are from the Layering Circles dies. 

  It's also a fun fold 'latch' card!  Here's the inside view: 

  Save

  Measurements:

  • Highland Heather: Card base 6 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4".  Side flap is3 1/2" square
  • Black: 2 3/4" X 3 1/4" & 2" X 5 1/4"
  • DSP: 1 3/4" X 5"
  • White: front is 2 1/2" X 3", inside is 4" X 5 1/4"

  In the photo below you can see how the right panel is 'latched' with the layered circle greeting to keep it closed.  

  Save

  Next is a super cute card made by Candace with the Bewitching punch bundle seen here.  Unfortunately the punch is unavailable right now but it will be back!  I just love her playful circles layout! 

  Save

  She used Gorgeous Grape, Pumpkin Pie, Black & Granny Apple Green.  She cut off the front flap with the Border Basics dies and added a strip of Gorgeous Grape with the same die-cut edge.  

  The way she added the boots to be under the hat with this fold is genius!  

  
  

  Save

  Measurements:

  • Grape card base 5 1/2" X 4 1/4" plus a 3/4" X 5 1/2" strip for the zigzag die-cut border 
  • White is 5 1/4" X 7" scored at 4 1/8"
  • Circles are all die-cuts from the Stylish Shapes dies!

  Don't you agree that these cards are amazing!?  I'm so proud to share the creativity of my Flowerbug's Team!  More to come tomorrow!

  I shared this cute & easy box on Tuesday's FB Live.  It's quite simple to make and fits a bunch of treats too!  

  Save

  I decided to feature this month's Paper Pumpkin kit I just received.  It's called Spooky Treats.  I used the ghost and greeting images from the stamp set plus the greeting element and the bats paper from the kit.  I chose the Black & White designs paper for the designer paper.

  Save

  The finished box measures 3" X 5" in size.

  Here are the measurements: 

  • Box card stock 7” X 9” – Score at 1” on all sides.
  • Place CS with long side at the top, score at 4” & 5”
  • DSP – sides 2 at ¾” X 2 ¾”, front & back 2 at ¾” X 4 ¾”. Top is 2 ¾” X 4 ¾”

  For the second box I chose to use Gorgeous Grape for my box instead of Pumpkin Pie.  The designer paper is also the Black & White designs.  

  Save

   

  This Spooky Treats Paper Pumpkin kit is still available while supplies last!  You can choose between the full kit here for $20.50 or the refill here (without the stamp set & ink) for $11.  

  Save

  You have a few choices when purchasing Paper Pumpkin.  You can subscribe to get one kit each month here.  Or purchase a pre-paid subscription here.  You can choose from a 1, 3, 6 or 12 month pre-paid subscription.
