Hello! 

Today's card features the Cookie Cutter Halloween stamp set and coordinated Cookie Cutter Builder Punch, as well as the Spooky Fun stamp set to create a fun Halloween card!

How To Make It: 

Emboss the Seaside Textured Impressions Embossing Folder onto the Basic Gray card base only going up about 2-1/2”-3” from the bottom.

Trim ½” off the Halloween Night Designer Series Paper so you have two pieces: 4-1/4” x ½” and 4-1/4” x 3”. Using SNAIL Adhesive adhere the larger piece to the card base then using reverse side of the narrow strip, adhere to card base at bottom edge.

Choosing your four preferred nesting size dies from the Layering Ovals Framelits Dies, die cut largest oval from Whisper White cardstock then the scalloped oval from Basic Black, the next size oval from Pumpkin Pie then smallest one with Halloween Night Designer Series Paper. Adhere all the ovals to one another with SNAIL Adhesive.

Ink the skeleton from the Cookie Cutter Halloween stamp set, and the trick-or-treat bag and sentiment from the Spooky Fun stamp set in Basic Gray ink on Whisper White cardstock.

Color in the trick-or-treat bag using an Aqua Painter and pooled ink from squeezing lid of the Pumpkin Pie, Crushed Curry and Old Olive ink pads.

Punch out the skeleton using the Cookie Cutter Builder Punch and the sentiment using the Duet Banner Punch. Use the Paper Snips to cut out the trick-or-treat bag.

Using the Pumpkin Pie ink, stamp the hair bow onto Whisper White and punch out using the Cookie Cutter Builder Punch. Using Multipurpose Liquid Glue, dab on bow and glue to the skeleton. When dry, add a Pearl Basics Jewel. Glue the trick-or-treat bag to the skeleton hand.

Punch the sides of the sentiment banner with the 1/16” handheld punch. Tie Basic Black Solid Baker's Twine into holes and trim the excess. Adhere Pearl Basics Jewels to cover the holes.
