It’s OK…

Hey everybody! Happy Monday – I hope you had a great weekend! I’m up on the CutCardStock blog today with a tutorial for making a super cute candy corn themed card. There are always a ton of posts around Halloween from people who really dislike candy corn, and when I saw this cut file, I laughed so hard and knew I had to have it! The cut file is from Printable Cuttable Creatables and I used Cougar Smooth White, Pop Tone Black Licorice, Lessebo Brick Orange, and Lessebo Sunflower Yellow cardstock to cut the pieces. And I happened to have some candy corn patterned paper in my stash so it really works!

I started by making the candy corn focal using the Printable Cuttable Creatables Don’t Like You Candy Corn SVG Cut File and my Cricut Explore Air 2. I cut the pieces from our Cougar Smooth White, Pop Tone Black Licorice, Lessebo Brick Orange, and Lessebo Sunflower Yellow cardstock. After assembling the candy corn focal, I cut a standard A2 top-folding card base and strip from CutCardStock Pop Tone Black Licorice cardstock. Next, I cut a layering panel from CutCardStock Lessebo Brick Orange and a layering panel and strip from coordinating papers in the Simple Stories Spooky Nights Collection. I rounded the bottom right corner of each and assembled the card. This couldn’t have been any easier!

I cut the inside panel from Cougar Smooth White and embellished it with leftover strips of the candy corn paper and orange cardstock used on the front. I added three candy corn stickers and a sentiment from the Simple Stories Collection Pack, which completed the card.
