Today’s post is sharing some Halloween cards using punches and dies

The theme for this month’s hop is Halloween. I don’t have any of the current Halloween sets, because, although my Grandchildren love dressing up, celebrations and card sending is still not a very big thing here in the UK. This left me having to think outside the box for my projects.

Halloween Cards Using Punches and Dies

I rummaged through my punches and dies to come up with some ideas. I used both the Ladybug Builder punch and the Grove dies and combined them with orange and black to create two very different cards.

Spider Card

The spider was created by cutting the antennae off of the ladybird and then punching out 3 more sets. These formed the legs of the spider. His eyes were created by using a hole punch on white card.

The spider is sitting on a piece of Silver Metallic Mesh ribbon and some mats of Pumpkin Pie and Basic Black Designer Series paper from the Cottage Gingham pack.

The sentiment has been created with the Alphabest stamp and punch bundle.

Spooky Woods

This spooky woodland scene was created by layering the tree frame from the Grove Dies over the top of a blended background. Some birds were added, flying across the yellow moon.
