Playful Ghosts Fun Fold Card

Hi Everyone!

Today I have a fun fold card for you that uses a fun new Halloween stamp set called Playful Ghosts, this stamp set can only be found in the Online Exclusives section of my Online Store

My card was inspired by a birthday card my friend Chris had given me, be sure to watch the video as I share the card there!

Now I know you are probably thinking Halloween? But it’s just July! Well…Stampin’ Up! has released fall & Christmas stamp sets/bundles in the Online Store now so that we have more time to get our fall and holiday themed projects started. My niece had a “story” on her social media the other day of all kinds of Halloween Decor, including pink pumpkins & ghosts! EEK I have to get out and get some pink Halloween Decor!

Gorgeous Grape cardstock – 3″ x 8″, scored at 4″ on the 8″ side, this is the mini inside card

Basic White cardstock – 2-3/4″ x 3-3/4″, two of these, the piece for the card front is coloured with Fresh Freesia classic ink and a Blending Brush, I added just a tad of Gorgeous Grape to the top. I then splattered water and clear Wink Of Stella (set this aside to dry), I stamped the ghost coming out of the pumpkin on the inside piece, a scrap to stamp sentiment on and cut down
Thick Basic White cardstock – a piece to stamp the ghost on the broom, colour and fussy cut
I added a black Baker’s Twine bow to the back of the sentiment
My ghost is coloured with the Gorgeous Grape Watercolour Pencil (we don’t have a Gorgeous Grape Stampin’ Blend), and the following Stampin’ Blends – Smoky Slate, Lemon Lime Twist, Daffodil Delight, Bubble Bath, #500 ( Medium Deep Combo Pack), Pumpkin Pie, Peach Pie, Crumb Cake, Colour Lifter
I used the Stampin’ Glass Mat Studio to do my ink blending on, #163987 $82.00
