Halloween Theme Week- Day 2
Hi crafty friends, it’s Jeannie here! Today, I’m pulling a bunch of both old and new Pretty Pink Posh items together for three fun Halloween cards. When I first saw the Candy Treat Dies, I didn’t really focus on the candy silhouettes but I immediately thought of how I could use it to create faces for Halloween and that’s exactly what I did today.
**All items in the Halloween Section are 15% off during theme week!
I pulled a couple dies from the Candy Treat set and die cut them for facial features for my Frankenstein, pumpkin, and mummy. Of course, for some I had to manipulate some pieces, like for the teeth of the mummy, which came from the longer piece of candy with a wrapper.
I also had to pull out the Stacked Edges 1 Die for the mouth of the pumpkin (which I cut shorter) and using both the Stitched Strips Dies and the Stacked Edges 1 Dies to build up Frankenstein’s hair.
I picked out colored cardstock for the base of their faces and trimmed them down if I wanted to. This was so fun to put together because you can be super creative and candy features as facial features as well but for my three cards today, I stuck with very basic features.
For my card bases, I pulled out colored cardstock along with the Spider Web stencil and stenciled them up using this metallic wax I found in my craft stash. It didn’t need to be perfect because most of it would be covered up but I wanted some texture in the background.
To finish off these cards, I die cut the Boo Script sentiment twice, once on holographic cardstock and once on gray cardstock so I can stack them for added dimension. I also pulled out the spider from the Spider Web Die to add accents to two of my cards. It was just a fun touch to add!
There are so many possibilities to create and I hope you get inspired to create!
Thanks for stopping by! Come back soon!
Super fun idea… TFS!
