All Hallow's Eve

I had lots of fun creating this Halloween card, particularly the little bow that I've attached to the handle of the pumpkin pot. After securing it in place, I melted and charred it with a little flame to give it a spookier-look. I also attached a silver cat charm with a couple of jump rings so it can move freely when the card is opened and closed.

Happy Halloween


This cute and colourful Halloween card was created by Kathy using the Frightful Fancies set of digital stamps. She has used lovely, bright colours for the image, changing the "berries" to little lights by adding a fabulous glow around each one. The colours are then mirrored in the background for a wonderful consistent design.

Tutorial - Upright Z-Fold Card


These cards are quick and easy to make and can be decorated in a variety of ways. It's simple to alter their size since there are just two folds, and there's plenty of space to add sentiments and embellishments.



1. Place a piece of card stock measuring 111/2" x 4" horizontally on your score board and score at 27/8" and again at 53/4". Fold along both score lines.


2. Trim a second piece of card stock to 5" x 31/2" and secure it in place on the bottom half of the card base so that there is 1/4" border at the bottom and both sides and a 1/2" at the top. See the photo below for correct placement.


3. You'll notice that the card does not stand open on its own, so you need to create a little tab that will hold the front and back piece together. I used a layered piece of card stock stamped with a sentiment and punched into a nice shape. Add some glue along the very top edge of the tab and glue to the back piece of card stock only. The front section should be able to slip under the tab so the card remains upright.


4. Embellish as desired.

Pumpkin Pot


Deanne has her Halloween preparations well under way, including the creation of this cute card featuring the pumpkin pot image from the new Frightful Fancies set of digital stamps. A touch of glitter and a spooky spider embellishment add to the festive feel.
