Halloweenie Cards

Happy Day After Halloween! Or, today is Dia de los Muertos, if you prefer. :) Hope you are not too hopped up on sugar!

I made these cards randomly over the past couple weeks, and just forgot to ever upload them as they were made or before Halloween. Both were 5 minute cards while I was sitting at the table bored and just playing with my supplies (my craft cart is really paying off to be able to just play with stuff again), and then all of sudden I had cute cards. The orange one came about because I was testing how to make a circular card and then I thought "This would make a cute pumpkin", so I made it into one. The other one happened because I was looking at the Washi tape I had just bought on clearance and just threw it on a card and found it was the perfect fit to throw in the stamp. I love when things work out so well.

Spooky Dance Halloween Card

Oh, my, my. I have been a VERY naughty blogger and have not been keeping up on updates. Well, time to fix that! You'll see a lot of posts in rapid fire as I get caught up. Ready? Here we go! Post 4...

A couple weeks ago Micheal's had a craft storage cart on clearance for $20 (woohoo!) and I snatched it right up. While my craft supplies were mostly organized, they were in storage containers on shelves in our bedroom, it was hard to work on something because I'd always have to get up from what I was doing and go get something or put something away--and always kept saying I'd craft more if I could have the supplies at hand. Anyway, the point of that long tangent was... with it being by the table, I sat down that day, having no ideas or maybe no intent to craft, and within 5 minutes had this cute card:


The skeleton was one singular guy, but I thought it would be fun to make it look like a dance line, so just repeated the image, added the text, distressed it some, and voila! Dance party! :)
