Today’s card was sent to the other twin for Halloween. I am so glad that I kept the bat punch after it retired. They add the perfect finishing touch to a spooky card. I kept the rest of this card simple with a black and purple color palette. The addition of the silver glitter tape pulls the card together.

Today’s card was sent to one of my twins. I pulled out some DSP scraps and started layering pieces together. Once that was set, I added an embossing folder and some punched shapes. I finished off with a simple sentiment. Love it!

Slowly getting back into card making with a group of Halloween cards. Today’s card was made for Arthur’s Kindergarten teacher. I knew I wanted to feature the fun jack-o-lanterns from the Harvest Hellos stamp set. From there, I added a nice sentiment, some punched bats, and some retired DSP.
