I decided to go with a pastel theme for a lot of my Halloween cards this year. I hope you like the color palette!

Let’s begin. First, I cut a 5 inch white cardstock and ink blended lightly with Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Ink. I then used the Spooky Sky Stencils to make my own patterned paper: the clouds were blended with Tumbled Glass, bats with Shaded Lilac, and stars with Mustard Seed. I love the layer stencils that Pretty Pink Posh offers. They can easily be used to make your own patterned paper look by ink blending through the stencils with different ink colors or Glitz Glitter Gel. I then cut the panel with a 4.5 inch square die with stitching details all around. 

Next, I white heat embossed the Boo word stamp on a violet cardstock and cut with the coordinating dies. I then stamped 3 bats from the Halloween Wreath stamp set and colored them with Copic markers: N3/01/00. For the sentiment, I cut a black strip of cardstock and white heat embossed the Happy Halloween To You from the Boo Stamp Set. 

I also cut a 4.5 inch vellum to soften the look of the stenciled panel. The Boo word is foam mounted onto the vellum. I then added glue on the back of the vellum (using the Boo word to hide the glue marks) and adhered to the stenciled panel. 

For the tag, I stamped the circle with the bats from the Halloween Circles and colored it with Copic: N3/1/0, V12, Y18/13/11. I then cut the circle with the coordinating die cut. The Halloween Circle Die comes with 3 different die cuts that can be layered together and used for card or tag making. For my tag, I cut the zigzag circle in pink cardstock and the bigger die cut in violet to perfectly match my card. 

That’s all for this card and tag set. I hope you enjoyed today’s project share! Stop by tomorrow for another day of Halloween inspiration!
