Halloween Picture Frame

I just got back from a camping vacation, which was wonderful, but now is time to get some more crafting in before school starts again.  I made a picture frame for Halloween.




The frame is a plain wood frame that I got a local craft store,  I painted the edges black.  I then covered it in a spider web patterned card stock from the Spooky Delight stack by DCWV.





The tree, sign post, and raven are both from the "Creepy Critters" cartridge.  I used the "A Frightful Affair" cartridge to cut the words in the signs, then backed them with grey card stock.  The ghost and fence are also from that cartridge.  I inked up the edges of the ghost with antique linen Distress Ink.  I used a circle to cut the moon.  I created the shine with some shimmery yellow spray ink.  The little bat is from the "October 31st" cartridge.

Fright Night

Here is the fun Halloween card I made today.



It is 4"x8" and made out of black card stock.  I cut purple card stock at 3 7/8"x7 7/8," then grey card stock at 3 3/4"x7 3/4" as mats.  I stamped stars all over the background of the grey mat using a stamp from Jaded Blossom.  It is from the Halloween Panels set, I only inked up some of the stars on the panel with the ghosts.  Then I stamped them repeatedly.  I then used a glitter marker to color in the stars.


The trick or treaters are from the "Autumn Celebrations" Cricut cartridge.  I used foam tape to adhere the witch in the middle and the little guy at the beginning of the line, just for a little dimension.


The haunted house is from the "A Frightful Affair" cartridge.  I stamped the ivory base with a texture stamp from Jaded Blossom, one of the ones on the Halloween Paint Splatters set.  I then cut the moon part again, out of yellow vellum, to cover the ivory color and the stamping.


The banner is from "The First Few Years" cartridge and the stamp is another one from Jaded Blossom.  This time it is from the Halloween Treats 2 set.




I cut some purple card stock at 3"x7" and then some white card stock at 2 7/8"x6 7/8" for the inside of the card.  I used the Halloween Designer Tapes stamp set from Jaded Blossom to create my faux washi tape look.  I fussy cut them out and adhered them to the corners of my mats.  The sentiment is from the Halloween Treats 2 stamp set as well.

I made this for the current challenge at Jaded Blossom, which is Halloween.
