Ghosty Garden Greetings by Jean Okimoto

Here's another mix of new designs from our Fall '23 Collection and favorite Halloween icon dies from my Memory Box stash. The new Boiling Cauldron and Layered Greenery Stems set the scene for drifting bats and floating ghosts. Hi, Jean here - Happy Friday!

Cut Layered Greenery Stems from black cardstock and the black Glitzy Glitter Pad 6x6 sheet. Assemble five stems - save the others for another project.

Cut Boiling Cauldron from the black Rainbow Reflections 6x6. Cut the bubbly cauldron rim and extra bubbles from the chartreuse Rainbow Reflections sheet. Cut the rising bubbles from a chartreuse Graceful Garden Glitter Pad 6x6 sheet. Assemble the cauldron - I trimmed the top rim of the cauldron a bit and lowered the chartreuse pieces.

Cut the ghosts - from the new Poppystamps Whittle Scary Guys set - from Open Studio Watercolor Paper. Attach scraps of black cardstock behind the eyes.

Cut the bats - from the Haunted Entrance Dome Layer set - from black cardstock.

Cut the dark orange 6x6 from the Sunny Orange Collection with the 2-¼" wide Curved Cap Pinpoint Layers die. This is a great die set - perfect for background layers that highlight - but don't compete with - the key design elements.

Attach the diecuts to a top-folded dark orange 6x6 card.

Colorful glittery, shimmery and matte cardstock layers and great fall diecuts make it easy to create fun Halloween scenes. Surprise everyone with Halloween cards this October!

Thanks for visiting - see you next week...
