Hello Honey Bee friends! Today I’m sharing this sweet and not too spooky Halloween card that features a few of the products from the Falloween Release. I used the Happy Haunting Stencil set for the background and the Too Cute To Spook Honey Cuts for the sentiment.
I started out with a 5-½” square piece of white cardstock. The Happy Haunting Stencil Set has six stencils. I used five of them, omitting the stencil with the spider web. I used ink blending brushes to add a mix of Distress Inks and Distress Oxide inks through the stencil layers.
On a scrap piece of white cardstock I stenciled two of the pumpkins (only used one), a ghost, bat, and hat.
I cut these out with the coordinating Happy Haunting Honey Cuts.
Here is a list of the inks I used:
-
Distress Inks:
- Squeezed Lemonade
- Saltwater Taffy
- Salvaged Patina
-
Distress Oxide Inks:
- Wilted Violet
- Mowed Lawn
- Antique Linen
- Lost Shadow
- Black Soot
When I was done with the stencils, I trimmed the panel to 4″ x 5-¼” and adhered it to a coordinating teal layer. Then I glued the layers to an A2 card base.
Next I die cut the shadow layer of the Too Cute To Spook dies from more teal cardstock. The top layer of the sentiment is die cut from glossy black cardstock. I used glue to adhere the two together.
I added foam dots to the back of the sentiment and adhered it to my card. Then I added foam squares to the back of the Happy Haunting die cuts and placed them around the sentiment
To finish up, I added black and white gems from the Sweet and Spooky Gem Stickers to the eyes of the ghosts and pumpkins. I placed a few turquoise gems around the sentiment.
I love stencil sets (if you can’t tell–haha!) and the Happy Haunting stencil set is so versatile! It can be used for a more traditional holiday card, or just stencil the items you want and then die cut those out!
Thank you, always, for stopping by. I hope your day is a good one with fun crafty time!
