Hello my crafty friends! I decided today to open up my Spellbinder BetterPress and get creative. And I totally love the look it gave me with my cards. I’m so looking forward to doing more with the BetterPress. I’ll list everything down below I used.

Pumpkins Halloween Card
Happy Halloween
Products I use to make these cards are Letterpress plate called Pumpkins & Ghosts background plate. Distress Oxide are twisted citron, vintage photo, carved pumpkin and fossilized amber.
I used the spellbinder better press ink Mulberry, Leaf, Bark and Saffron ink. It was simple and easy to do. Just stamp with ink on plate and run it threw your Sizzix machine.
Sequins are ghost, bats, pumpkins, black and orange sequins. I also used a clear card sleeve to put my background in and seal it after the sequins in with red tape.
I love the way the cards came out.

Thank you for checking out my blog. Hope you guys like them and will try theses techniques with whatever you have in your stash. Please leave a like or comment on what you think. Have a wonderful day!

Hello my crafty friends! Last week I decided to make some shaker cards. Using a die cut frame called Bats. I really like the way they all came out. It was simple and easy to make. I cut the Bats frame with 110 black card stock.

Trick or Treat
Here you can see I mix white, black and green sequins.
The sequin mix is by Picket fence studios, Frankie Comes to town, then I mix my own sequins together to match each backgrounds in the cards.

The background I used in each card is LDRS Creative card stock called “Haunted Halloween. I believe I purchased this card stock from Amazon.

The size of the cards are an A2 and also the Bats frame. I took a sleeve protector made for cards and then cut the card-stock down to A2 then slipped it in to the sleeve. Added my sequins and sealed the back with red tape.
Here everything I used for theses Halloween cards. Hope you try this out with anything in your stash. Have a wonderful day.

Hello my crafty friends! Today I wanted to share with you guys a easy and simple shaker cards. I made theses cards the other night when I couldn’t sleep. Sometime my creativity come to me when I ready to go bed. How funny is that, so I get up and start creating my cards. Hope you guys like this and will create one like this no matter what you have in your stash.

Boo Halloween card
In theses cards I used Tim Holtz Frightful things Thinlits set # 664209 and his new Boo die. Ghost were cut out on 110 white card stock and the Boo was with 110 black card stock.
Background card stock I used is Recollections Halloween paper. I cut it to a A2 size card then put a clear sleeve over it. Then added my ghost sequins mix to it. I found the ghost sequins at Michaels by recollections. Then added black, white and purple to the card. Then sealed it up.
I like to used red tape when sealing clear plastic. It holds it down really nicely. I never worry about anything coming apart when using red tape.
I did used 3d adhesive with the boo and ghost to give it dimension.
This is everything I used for theses Boo Halloween cards. I hope you guys will create something like this for your Halloween cards.

Thank you for checking my blog. Also I will be posting some other Halloween cards I made soon. If you like theses cards please let me know. Have a wonderful day.
