The other day I made a few more Halloween cards, partly to use up as much of the Them Bones Designer Series Paper by Halloween as I can! Some of the patterns I can use for Thanksgiving and beyond, but the skeletons and tombstones, not so much! It’s also about trying not to hoard all the beautiful Stampin’ Up! paper that takes up space in my house after all these years!

I’ll just give a general description of each card.

Top left: This card uses the diagonal striped blue paper on “the other side” of the pattern with the little bats flying around. Layered on that is the spotlight panel (with a layer of Basic Black) that is part of the one sheet with a lot of different scenes that you cut apart. I cut out one of the skeletons and adhered him in the spotlight, from the moon I suppose, as if he is dancing. The “Happy Halloween” greeting is from a past Paper Pumpkin Kit stamp set. You can use what you have. I added some Black Classic Matte Dots to the greeting and some Iridescent Rhinestone Gems.

Top Right: This card uses one of those panels on a big sheet, plus I added pumpkins from the Pick of the Patch Stamp Set. The greeting is stamped with the Alphabest Stamp Set and punched out with the Best Label Punch.

Bottom Left: This card also uses that blue striped paper for the background. I added pumpkins, a skeleton, and a punched out moon from the large paper with tombstone scenes that can be cut apart.

Bottom Right: A super easy card to make by just cutting out the Trick or Treat panel on the sheet with all the different panels. It is layered on a piece of the orange plaid designer paper. I just added a bow made from Glittered Organdy Black Ribbon (retired). You could use the Black and White Gingham Ribbon or anything else you like.

If I have time I may even make some Halloween cards to hand out to the Trick or Treaters along with their candy!

I hope these ideas help you if you are still making Halloween cards or if you, too, want to use up your Halloween Them Bones paper!
