Add a shadowy, dimensional effect - like itallic curliques - to a Fanciful Gilded Frame background.  The Large Layered Witch Hat and Poppystamps Scary Guys ghosts complete this Halloween scene.  Hi, Jean here with another design featuring the great new frame from our Fall '23 Collection.

Prep Fanciful Gilded Frame by rubbing it briskly with scrunched waxed paper to help release the swirls and curls.  Cut the frame from black cardstock and a Sunny Orange Collection 6x6 sheet.  Trim half of the borders from the bottom and right sides of the black frame diecut so they won't show when the frames are offset   Attach the orange and black frames  to a top-folded orange A2 card - don't attach the two curliques that  will overlap the Curved Cap Pinpoint Layer diecut.

Cut the 2-¼" Curved Cap Pinpoint Layer from a "slightly yellow-er" Sunny Orange Collection sheet.  Attach it to background.

Cut Large Layered Witch Hat from black cardstock.  Cut the vertical trim from the black Glitzy Glitter Pad 6x6.  Cut the hatband from the chartreuse Rainbow Reflections 6x6.

Cut the sweet ghosts - from the Poppystamps Scary Guys die - from heavy white cardstock.  Attach black cardstock behind the eyes.

Attach the diecuts to the card - use foam tape for the tops of the hat and ghosts.  Add the yellow-orange Treasure Chest Fairy Gemstones.  Cut an A2-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.

Memory Box frame and coverplate dies are great for quick cards.  Use them for pressure-embossing, stenciling and inlaid designs too.  Trim them into different shapes too. 

Thanks for visiting...have a great weekend!
