My project today is a spooky witch Halloween card made using several of the newly released dies by Rubbernecker Stamps. I used the Witches, Spooky Tree, Wrought Iron Fence, Bats and Spiderweb, Deckle Hills and Nested Circles. This was a fast and easy card to make and is a more fun rather than scary Halloween card. All the dies on my card, as well as all the new dies in the release are included in the Rubbernecker store wide sale. You can see the full release of die listed at the bottom of my post.
The Deckle Hills, Tree and Fence
- Cut the deckle hills and wrought iron fence using black cardstock.
- Attach the back hill layer to the card base using double stick tape.
- Apply mounting tape to the front hill layer and attach it to the card base.
- Apply rolled strips of double stick tape to a few key spots on the back of the fence and attach it to the card base.
The Moon, Witch, Spooky Tree and Bats
- Cut the moon using bright yellow cardstock and attach it to the card base using double stick tape.
- Cut the witch, spooky tree and bats using black cardstock.
- Apply pieces of mounting tape to the back of the tree and tuck it in behind the fence and attach it to the card base.
- Apply pieces of mounting tape to the back of the witch and attach it to the moon.
- Finish by attaching tiny pieces of mounting tape to the back of the bats and attach to the card base.
I hope you enjoyed seeing this fast and easy spooky witch Halloween card. Sadly it’s always a little hard to get good clear pictures of cards made with lots of black images. Be sure to pull out your wish list and check out the Rubbernecker Stamps sale. Thank you for coming by and I hope you have a great day.

Oct 18, 2018 | Die Cut, Halloween, Impression Obsession |
Good Thursday morning. My projects today were made for the Impression Obsession Happy Haunting Halloween design team challenge. I sure hope you’ll come and play along with us. You can see all the challenge details and prize information on the Impression Obsession Blog.
I’m not fond of horror Halloween themes so I usually choose more cartoony dies and stamps to play with. My first project was made with the Spider Web Background, Spider Trio and All-in-One Frames Rectangles 2. I would not want to run into a spider web with these three scary spiders in it. LOL!
The Spider Web, Frame and Spiders
- Cut the spider web background using white cardstock.
- Cut the frame and spiders using black cardstock.
- Apply double stick tape to the back of the frame and attach the spider web background.
- Apply thin strips of mounting tape to the back of the frame and attach it to the orange card base.
- Lightly form the spider bodies using a large stylus and molding pad and bend their legs a little with your fingers create the appearance of movement.
- Apply double layered pieces of mounting tape to the back of the spiders and attach them to the orange card base.
My second card was made using the Halloween Cutout Circles and All-in-One Frames Rectangles 2. I think these small circle silhouettes are so fun used all together on one card but would be very cute used individually one small cards or tags. And again, these are all whimsical images that are full of Halloween fun and not yucky horror type images. 
The Circle Cutouts and Frame
- Line the circles up on the black cardstock and cut them. The circles come tabbed together but I never cut them apart so it would be easier to cut them so they were all lined up perfectly.
- Cut the frame using orange cardstock.
- Apply thin strips of mounting tape to the back of the frame.
- Attach the circle layer to the back of the frame.
- Apply double stick tape to the back of the circle layer and frame and attach a piece of orange cardstock behind the openings. I wanted the circle images to lay flat against the orange background..
- Attach the completed circle frame to the black card base using double stick tape.
I hope my fast and easy Impression Obsession Happy Haunting Halloween cards have inspired you to get out your dies and stamps. Halloween is just around the corner. I can’t believe how fast this year has gone by. Thanks for coming by and I hope you’ll hop over to the Impression Obsession blog to check out the challenge and the list of other team members who have projects to share.

Oct 19, 2017 | Fall, Halloween, Impression Obsession |
Good Thursday morning and welcome to the Impression Obsession “Haunted Greetings” design team challenge. I’m not so fond of spooky or scary Halloween projects so I tend to stick with things that are more on the fun and cute side. I decided to do something a little different today and made the majority of my project black and white. My card was made using the Square Tree Window, Boo and Mini Bats. The designer paper in the background is Essentials by Ellen Modern Graphics.
I started by attaching the designer paper to the card base using ATG adhesive. I then attached mounting tape to the back of the tree window frame and attached it to the card base. I die cut the Boo and accessories in black, white and orange so I could layer them to create a shadow of color so they would show up better on the black and white background. I attached the ghost, cat and witch hat to the colored background piece with glossy accents.
The Boo sentiment was attached to the frame with pieces of mounting tape. The hat, cat and ghost were attached to the Boo with pieces of mounting tape. I finished by adding a few white bats to the frame for a white contrast against the black frame.
Why don’t you come along and play with us. To enter the challenge and see a complete list of our team payers go to the Impression Obsession Blog. You’ll see all the details there! A random challenge card will be selected to showcase on the IO blog.

Oct 3, 2017 | Die Cut, Ellen Hutson, Essentials by Ellen, Halloween |
Good Tuesday morning. Ellen Hutson released Julie’s All Inside Stamp Set and coordinating All Inside Die Set early in 2016 and they have become very popular. In the summer of 2016 Bear Ware Stamp Set and Bear Ware Die Set were released with a wonderful collection of images to coordinate with the All Inside bear. Due to the popularity of the Bear Ware accessory images Julie created a new coordinating accessory set of Halloween and Christmas images- Bear Ware 2 Stamp Set and Bear Ware 2 Die Set. I have to admit that these are my favorite images. Since I hate spooky and gory Halloween stuff I especially love the fun and innocent images in the set. I will have to play with the Christmas images very soon. I wonder what Julie will come up with next for this precious bear? The frames were made using the Lawn Fawn Scalloped Rectangle Stackables and Hero Arts Infinity Nesting Rectangles. The leaves were made using the Impression Obsession Oak Leaves and Rake set.
I started by securing the cardstock and stamps in my MISTI, applied ink and stamped them all at once. Using my MISTI also allowed me to stamp the images a second time to get good crisp images. I heat set the images before coloring.
I don’t often color with my Copic markers since I am so challenge with them but I figured I couldn’t go too wrong for these fun cartoony images. Once they were all cut out with the coordinating dies I used the Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pens- Amethyst, Harvest Moon and Emerald Green to add sparkle to the mask, leaves, hat trim and pumpkin. Sadly all that sparkle doesn’t show well in the photos. I love the different theme colored Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen sets.
The front frame was attached to the green layer using thin strips of mounting tape. They were both attached to the back scalloped layer with double stick tape and then they were attached to the card base using double stick tape.
I assembled all the pieces to create my scene. The mask, hat and Jack-o-Lantern were attached to the bear using glue dots. The Boo bag was attached using a small piece of mounting tape. The bear was attached to the card base using mounting tape. The leaves were attached to the tree using glossy accents and then the tree was attached to the card base with thin strips of mounting tape. The broom and cat were attached with mounting tape. I finished by applying a few leaves falling from the tree and to the frame.
I certainly wouldn’t be scared if this guy came to my door Trick-or-treating because he looks so cute with his witch costume and little kitty friend.
Thanks for coming by and I hope you are having a great day.

Sep 28, 2017 | Frame, Halloween, Impression Obsession |
Good Thursday morning. I have fun Halloween cards to share with you today. I am not fond of spooky or scary Halloween cards and Impression Obsession has some new scene dies that are cartoony and fun. I thought I would take a few step by step photos of to show how fast and easy these framed scene cards come together. The first card was made using the Witch Line and the second with the Halloween Scene.
Project Pieces and Supplies
Witch Line, Black Frame 4.50”, White Frame 4.25”, Card Base 5.00” Square, Mounting Tape
1. Apply thin strips of mounting tape all the way around the back of the black frame and a few small pieces in the corners and attach it to the white frame.
2. Attach thin strips of mounting tape to the back of the double matted frame and attach to the card base.
3. Attach small pieces of of mounting tape to the back of several of the key pieces of the Witch Line and attach it to the card base.
Here’s my second card that was just as fast and easy as the card above. The Halloween Scene die creates it’s own frame. I cut it out using a 4.50” black frame.
I attached the die cut frame to the 5.00” square card base using thin strips of mounting tape and dressed it up by adding an orange scalloped frame from the All-in-One Frames Circles for a little bit more contrast for the scene.
Here’s a card I posted a while back made with the new Halloween Web with lots of fun Halloween images added around the frame.
Thanks for coming by and I hope you have a great day.
All cards are 5.00” Square
