Too Cute to Spook (for CC2C)

Hi there! Rosanne and I are back with another Creating Coast to Coast posting for you! This month we decided on a Halloween/Trick or Treat theme and I’ve made a card that is too cute to spook! We’re starting with me this time so we’ll be traveling from…

I’m using some fun paper from Stampin’ Up! called Spooky Sweet Specialty Designer Series Paper. This pack comes with two sheets of punch-outs that add to the creating fun.

Here’s my card:

And this is how I made it (so simple!):

• Start with Pumpkin Pie Cardstock, 8-1/2″x 5-1/2″, folded at 4-1/4″.
• Add a layer of Basic Black Cardstock, 5-1/4″x 4″.
• To that, glue the scenic background DSP. This door scene is part of a larger sheet with several scenes to cut out (see below). I trimmed it to measure 5″x 3-3/4″.
• For a little sparkle, brush Clear Wink of Stella over the pumpkins and flowers.
• Drape and glue the banner flags (punch-outs) across the top.
• Fussy cut the trick-or-treating pig out and adhere him with Dimensionals. I also backed him with white cardstock for extra support.
• Stamp a sentiment into the doorway using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I found this sentiment in a set from Spellbinders. Isn’t it perfect?

Here’s the paper:

And the inside uses a sentiment from Fright Night by Stampin’ Up! plus another cute critter punch-out.

That little pig looks so delighted with the treats he just received, doesn’t he?

Time to transport east to Pennsylvania to see what Rosanne has made! Click HERE to go to her blog, Heartfelt Stamping.

Have fun making these cards for your little “goblins”! Have a sweet and safe Halloween!
