Today I’m showing you a Cute Halloween Square Card. This suite of products is not currently available, but our Blog Hop this week will give you a sneak peek into the new July-December 2021 Mini Catalog.
My friends in Australia don’t celebrate Halloween like we do here in the USA, so I thought using a Halloween set would be a chance for them to show their customers something they might not purchase for themselves. You could use this card design with ANY stamp set.
Cute Halloween Square Card
How to make it
This is a simple card to make. The base card is 4 1/4″ x 8 1/2″, so you can get two from one sheet of cardstock and have extra cardstock left over. Fold in half, so you have a 4 1/4″ square card. The sentiment is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black at the top of the card.
The DSP is 2″ x 4″, which is a good size, because you can get four pieces out of this 6″ x 6″ DSP. If your DSP is directional (has a specific “top” and “bottom”), you’ll get three pieces. Adhere to bottom of card, leaving a 1/8″ border on three sides.
The white square is 2 5/8″, and is based on the size of one of the dies from the Stitched with Whimsy Dies (these do not cut the square, they just add the stitched impression). The black square is 2 7/8″ to provide a 1/8″ border.
The details
I stamped the spider in Memento Tuxedo Black. The Basic Black Stampin’ Write marker was used to draw the “web” he’s dangling from.
I stamped the pumpkin outline in Memento on a scrap, and filled it with the solid stamp and Pumpkin Pie ink. The stem is colored with the Garden Green Stampin’ Write marker, and the pumpkin is punched with the Halloween Punch.
The bling
The Cute Halloween Suite has star embellishments, but I chose to use the Matte Black Dots from the Annual Catalog.
