Spooky Die Cut Halloween Card

Halloween is the perfect time to have a little fun with spooky images, classic colors, and texture! Judy here with a Spooky Die Cut Halloween Card project created for CutCardStock. I combined die-cut Halloween characters with an embossed spider web background to create this playful card.

Die Cutting Focal Pieces

Cut a pumpkin, witch hat, ghost, spooky eye with bat wings and banner sentiment pieces with the following cardstock:

Lessebo Brick Orange
Lessebo Pitch Black
Pop Tone Grape Jelly
Classic Crest Solar White 80 lb

Assemble the die cuts.

Focal Background

Die cut a frame from Lessebo Pitch Black cardstock.

Cut a piece of Lessebo Aubergine cardstock to fit inside the frame. Emboss with a spider web embossing folder. Ink the raised portion of the embossing with a white ink pad.

Card Base

Prepare a 5 x 6 1/2 card base by cutting a piece of Classic Crest Solar White 110 lb cardstock to 10 x 6 1/2 inches. Score and fold at 5 inches along the 10 inch side.

Cut a 5 x 6 1/2 inch piece of Lessebo Aubergine cardstock to cover card base. a piece of Lessebo Brick Orange cardstock is cut to 4 1/2 x 5 3/4 inches for matting.

Completing the Design

Adhere the frame to card. Insert and adhere the embossed panel.

Add the focal pieces.

Cut a piece of Lessebo Brick Orange and a strip of Lessebo Aubergine and adhere to the bottom of the frame. The sentiment pieces go on to complete.
