More Fast and Easy Halloween Cards!

Check out two more fast and easy Halloween cards!

To make these two fast and easy Halloween cards I again used the new Rubbernecker Spook-Tacular 6×6 Paper Pad.  I love the very cute design pattern on the first  card and the colorful striped design on the second and frankly, every time I look through these patterns, I see another one I just have to use to make a card!

These cards are so easy to make and even though in this post I said that these cards don’t even need directions, for some of my new card making friends, I thought I’d add in some of the little tips and tricks I use with die cuts.

To make the first card I used the Ghosts, Bats and Spiderwebs and the witches hat from the Owl Halloween Add On.

One of a pair of fast and easy Halloween cards made using patterned papers and simple die cuts all from Rubbernecker.

Ghost Witch and Bats

  • Use white cardstock to cut an A2 sized card base and designer paper to cut a 5.50″ x 4.25″ layer.
  • Attach the designer paper to the card base using ATG adhesive.
  • Cut a 4.25″ x 2.00″ coordinating polka dot paper strip and a 4.25″ x 2.25″ yellow cardstock strip and attach them together using ATG adhesive.
  • Apply strips of mounting tape to the designer paper strip and attach it to the card base.
  • Use white and yellow cardstock to cut two witch sections and offset and attach them together using Connect glue.
  • Cut the witch hat and bats using black cardstock.
  • Attach the hat to the ghosts head using rolled up double stick tape.  Pro Tip:  I used a thin rope of rolled up double stick tape to attach the hat rather than mounting tape so it would only add a tiny bit of dimension.rolled double stick tape 2
  • Attach the ghost and hat to the card base using pieces of mounting tape.
  • Apply tiny pieces of mounting tape to the back of the bats and attach them to the card base.

To make the second card I used Witches, Spooky Tree, Knob Top Fence, Jack-o-Lanterns and Grass.

Patterned paper and easy to use card making dies come together to make this one of a pair of fast and easy Halloween cards.

Witch, Spooky Tree and Jack-o-Lanterns

  • Cut an A2 sized card base using white cardstock and a 5.50″ x 4.25″piece of designer paper.
  • Attach the designer paper to the card base using ATG adhesive.
  • Use purple and yellow cardstock to cut the witches, attach them together using Connect glue and attach them to the card base.
  • Cut the grass, tree and fence using purple cardstock.
  • Attach the fence directly to the card base using double stick tape along the back bottom and tiny pop dots on the back of the pickets.
  • Apply a strip of mounting tape to the back of the grass and tree and attach them to the card base.
  • Use orange and black cardstock to cut the Jack-o-Lantern parts, attach them together using Connect glue and attach them using pieces of mounting tape.

    Here are all the things I used to make these two cards – remember, you can mix and match these items with all the other paper patterns in this awesome collection and make a STACK of cards in no time!
