BOO!

>> Thursday, October 3, 2019

Good morning friends!
I decided to do a card with a bendi-front panel. Why, heehee, I think it looks cool that's why.
The card is made with two 41/4 X 5 1/2 pieces of white (half piece of cardstock).  Cut a slit toward the bottom of back panel on the right side and cut 1/4" off left side.  For the front, stamp the Iron Fence & Gate then cut down to the height of the Fence/Gate and cut a tab on the right side 
to match the slit.  On the other side score 1/4" and fold then glue to the back of the back panel.
Unfold card and lay flat so that fence faces up then stamp and emboss "Expect The Unexpected" on the left side of fence.
For the back panel, Sponge the sky and ground using Oxide Inks.  Die cut the tree (Spellbinders), Die cut the tombstones out of textured paper (Wall paper sample used for these tombstones). Die cut the bottom ghost from vellum (tombstones and ghost dies by Sizzix).  Stamp the RIP Tombstone next to the tree.  Sponge the textured tombstones with gray ink and then a mossy green.
Dab some white opaque pigment ink around the tree and ground for mist/fog.
Die cut the moon (Hero Arts) sponge the edges, add some pink paper behind the moon.
Stamp the Ghost Boo!  with white, emboss with white on vellum and then cut it out and 
color the boo from behind with pink then glue it to the moon.
Sponge the front panel (both front and back of it) to match the back panel.


This is a little candy box.   I started with 2 rectangle die cuts then cut a strip 1 3/4" wide long enough to go from left top, around the bottom then up to the right top.  Score 1/4" along both long sides and fold inward.  Before gluing to front, stamp the front with the Priceless Halloween Greeting 
and the Candy Corn Border, color .  Now glue the 1/4" tabs starting at the top, make a pie shape cut
at the corner then continue around the bottom, make another pie shaped cut then continue up the other side to the top.  Do the same for the back of the box with the other 1/4" tab.
Punch a hole at both sides then insert a ribbon for a handle.
Cut 2 zig zag orange borders (Memory Box) and glue one to the top front and side.  Glue the other to the back and the other side.
Stamp the Mummy, color and cut out then glue to the left side of box front, leave arms free.
What a fun way to give a friend some special candies.
Thanks for visiting today!
