Are You Team Sweet or Spooky For Halloween?

Hello card making friends! Today I'm sharing this sweet and not too spooky Halloween card that features a few of the products from the Honey Bee Stamps Falloween Release.  I used the adorable Happy Haunting Stencil set for the background and the Too Cute To Spook Honey Cuts for the sentiment.

I started out with a 5-½" square piece of white cardstock. The Happy Haunting Stencil Set has six stencils. I used five of them, omitting the stencil with the spider web. I used ink blending brushes to add a mix of Distress Inks and Distress Oxide inks through the stencil layers.

On a scrap piece of white cardstock I stenciled two of the pumpkins (only used one), a ghost, bat, and hat.

I cut these out with the coordinating Happy Haunting Honey Cuts.

Here is a list of the inks I used:

  • Distress Inks:
    • Squeezed Lemonade
    • Saltwater Taffy
    • Salvaged Patina
  • Distress Oxide Inks:
    • Wilted Violet
    • Mowed Lawn
    • Antique Linen
    • Lost Shadow
    • Black Soot

Next I die cut the shadow layer of the Too Cute To Spook dies from more teal cardstock. The top layer of the sentiment is die cut from glossy black cardstock. I used glue to adhere the two together.

I added foam dots to the back of the sentiment and adhered it to my card. Then I added foam tape to the back of the Happy Haunting die cuts and placed them around the sentiment

To finish up, I added black and white gems from the Sweet and Spooky Gem Stickers to the eyes of the ghosts and pumpkins. I placed a few turquoise gems around the sentiment.

I love stencil sets (if you can't tell--haha!) and the Happy Haunting stencil set is so versatile! It can be used for a more traditional holiday card, or just stencil the items you want and then die cut those out!

Thank you, always, for stopping by. I hope your day is a good one with fun crafty time!
