Flying by with a Halloween Hi

Hey everybody! Happy Sunday – I hope you’re having a great weekend! I’m nearing the bottom of the pile of Pajama Crafter Stamps projects that I created prior to leaving the team at the end of February and hadn’t yet showcased. Only a few more after this one! I created a clean and simple Halloween card featuring the Prickley Pear Stamps Bats stamp set and coordinating Bat die. This is almost a one-layer card and I love how it turned out – a good ol’ black and orange color combo with a tiny pop of yellow and purple!

The A2 size card base was cut from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White cardstock and the bottom right corner rounded. I stamped the two smaller bats from the Bats stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink directly on the card front as well as the sentiment in Memento Morocco ink. I stamped the larger bat on a Solar White scrap and cut it with the coordinating Bat die. You can barely see it, but I used a Sharpie Neon Yellow Ultra Fine Point Marker to color the windows on the haunted house on the bat. I popped the bat up on foam dimensionals and added a few Eyelet Outlet 3mm purple gemstones. Super easy design!

Flying by with a Halloween HI

Hi everybody! Happy Tuesday to you – I hope your week has started off nicely! Affiliate links are used in this post at no cost to you – I really appreciate your support! I’m back up on the Prickley Pear Stamps blog today with another Halloween card! It’s that time of year, you know! ;) I created a fun fold using the super adorable Bats stamp set, Bats 2 stamp set and coordinating Bat die. I’ve made several of these free standing pop-up cards in the past and they are definitely fun and pack a huge punch. I dug into one of my favorite paper pads for coordinating papers in the traditional Halloween colors!

I cut the card base from CutCardStock Basis Black cardstock and adhered patterned paper layers cut from The Paper Studio Four Seasons and Everything In Between -2- paper pad. I cut the stand-up portion of the card from CutCardStock Basis Orange cardstock (which they no longer carry, unfortunately) and a layering panel from Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80# cardstock which I embellished with leftover pieces of the patterned paper. Using the Bats stamp set and Bats 2 stamp set, I stamped a sentiment and some bats in purple, green, black and orange inks. I stamped a separate bat on Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 110# cardstock in black ink, cut it with the coordinating Bat die and adhered it to the front of the box portion of the card.

I cut the back panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a leftover piece of the patterned paper. I left this panel blank for a custom message and signature.

And one more look… super fun card in traditional Halloween colors! Love, love, love these bat stamps and die!
