Ghoul Gang

Hey everybody! HaPpY fRiDaY to you! I’ve popped in this morning to share a Syncopation Design inspiration project created with the awesome Code Orange stamp set! I used quite a few stamps in this set for my card and I absolutely love how it turned out! What better day than Friday the 13th to share this cool ghoul W-fold design! I’ve made a few these in the past and always chuckle because it really should be called an M-fold! Regardless, it’s a fun one to put together! I’ve had the handwritten instructions for this in my arsenal for a number of years and don’t remember who to give credit to, but there are many tutorials out there by searching for a W-fold.

I cut the card base and inside strip and panels from CutCardStock Basis Black cardstock along with front and inside layering panels from coordinating prints in the American Crafts Halloween 6×6 paper pad. I stamped the focal image for the front in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Solar White cardstock, colored it with alcohol markers, and cut it with an oval die from the Keep It Simple Stitched Ovals Nested Dies. I also cut a slightly larger oval from the Basis Black to layer beneath the focal image. I added a strip of patterned paper and two strips of MAMBI skinny washi tape to the top of the front panel which completed the card front.

I stamped the images for the inside on Solar White cardstock, colored them with alcohol markers and cut them with an oval die from the Keep It Simple stitched oval dies. I assembled the panels and adhered them to the strip. Such a fun, fun design!
