Well, I'm not sure what possessed me to make such a complicated Halloween card this year, but I'm pretty sure I won't do it again!
This thing was multiple folds and steps and die-cut layers and I made 25 of them and I practically have to take out a second mortgage to pay for the postage! I don't know what the name of this fold is, but it stands up on its own for display.
Most of the dies came from the Jim Holtz collection for Sizzix and I am absolutely in love with those ghosts. I cut them from vellum so that they would appear to be translucent. The cardstock and matching envelopes are from LCI Papers and I lined the envelopes with lightweight scrapbook paper in orange with white polkadots. The stamped images on the front fold are done with white embossing powder.
This is the best halloween card I've ever seen Fran - and I don't even do halloween!! How amazing are those ghosts in vellum and you've made your multi-stepped, multi-folded card seem clean and uncluttered even with that level of detail. Deeply impressed! Also - it's a 'special' kind of a year this year and your incredible cards are sure to be treasured! Vicky x
