Halloween Ideas

 I just love making these cascading cards. They look so complicated but are really quite simple. The fun starts when you decide how to decorate them. This one used the Googly Ghouls and Wickedly Cool sets. The Howlstooth and Scaringbone designer series paper is great for Halloween or for a more masculine type card. Check out the Holiday Mini catalog to view more products.  Book a party and we can make this for your party or the one below.









This is a sidestep card. Lots of punches were used to create the pumpkins, ghosts, bats, and more. These two cards are part of my classes for Oct. 1-2. The fee is only $10.

Ribbon Flower

This is one of the cards we did for a ribbon technique class. You start with 11" of satin ribbon and cut slits from one side every inch. The slits are most of the way across also. Take a 1 3/8" circle punch and punch a double sided adhesive paper. Peel one side and start on the inside and begin to go around and adhere the ribbon to the circle. When finished, heat slightly to curl the ribbon. I added a pearl to hide the center.

The card is early espresso with a layer 4" x 5 1/4" of very vanilla that I used the Elegant Lines embossing folder with. Then sponged EE over the raised area. The bottom EE was made with the Finishing Touches edgelit.

Three Fancy Folds

 Ghoulish Ghouls is such a cute set that you can do so many things with. This is a waterfall card that flips over each card when you pull the ribbon at the bottom. The last one has the Booo saying. This is available in the current Holiday mini catalog.

CASCADING CARD

   These cards are truly amazing to see and so easy to create once you make one or two. They are also fun to design. Your imagination is all it takes. These cards were two of the cards that we will be making at the Fancy Folds Class.



I made the card below for Garey's cousin who loves nature and fishing.
