INSTRUCTIONS
Cut card base 5-½ x 11” Score at 4-¼, 5-½ and 6-¾”
OPTIONAL: Emboss the card front with Seasonal Cheer Mini Embossing Folder in the Halloween pattern along the center of the card front.
Cut a window in the card Beautifully Celebrated Die. Set aside. This will be used for the flap fun fold element.
Fold on the three score lines so the fold looks like an M (mountain - valley fold). This creates a flap inside your card base. Glue so the flap is closed. The flap measures 1-¼ x 5-½”
Glue the 1” DSP strips to this fun fold flap on both sides.
Cut the Dracula face out of the Spooktacular DSP with the same die used to cut out the window on the card front. Glue face to the back of the die cut that you cut out of the card front. (The embossed pattern should be on the other side).
TIP: Use post-its to temporarily hold the Dracula face in place in the window of the card front while you add glue to the back. Place glue only along the top. Glue to flap. This becomes your fun fold piece!
Once the glue is dried remove your post-its and the face should line up perfectly in the window when the card is closed.
Glue the ¼” DSP strips to the top and bottom of the card front.
NOTE: I did use a blending brush to add a little black ink (very soft touch) to the front of the card with the embossed pattern to make the bats more visible. Optional but a fun look!
Stamp “Happy Halloween” in the Basic Black Hydbrid Stampin’ Up Ink using the Oh My Fright Stamp Set onto the oval die cut. Glue to the center of the die cut on the back side.
To decorate the inside of the card, use the Perennial Postage Die Cut (3-¾ x 5” size) in Basic White for the insert and decorate with two bat die cuts and the spooky tree die cut from the Oh My Fright Dies.
Finish the card with two bat embellishments on the front of the card.
