Happy Thursday everyone! My card today for Dies R Us is a Happy Halloween Shaker Card using a mix of some
SPOOKTACULAR Dies! I love how fun and creative dies are for creating
unique and special cards.
++++++++++++++++++++++++
The links to all of the products used from the Dies R Us
Store are shown below. Here is a step-by-step of how I created this
card.
I used Poppystamps Hip Halloween Circle Frame Die to create the "shaker
element" of this card. The die cuts out a thin outer circle with pointy
edges (which I didn't use), and then an inner circle with the words
"happy halloween." I used a regular circle die to cut out a circle from
transparency film and the white/black decorative paper.
I
glued the happy halloween die-cut to the clear transparency film. Then
on the backside I added a strip of foam. Next, I found various beads,
sequins, chunky glitter, and paper confetti to fill the inside.
I
stacked the shaker pieces in the center of the decorative paper so I
could turn over the happy halloween circle and center it on top of the
black/white paper.
Next,
I die-cut 3 of the Memory Box Swirly Ghost Circles from white
cardstock, and then cut the ghosts out from the circle frame so I could
place them around the top of the card. The bottom border is Yvonne
Creations Happy Halloween Landscape Die, and the Skeleton is Yvonne
Creations Happy Halloween Happy Skeleton. The edges of the orange
cardstock were distressed with Black Soot Distress Ink.
I used foam dots behind the top ghost and the skeleton for added dimension.
