Silly Halloween Cards

Happy Wednesday!


I have to admit, last week when I was trying to make a card for Laura's Sketch #10 over at 2 Sketches 4 You, all I could see was a long bug! So I finally decided to go with it, and this is how it turned out! lol! The Kiwi Kiss card is 6 1/2" by 3 1/4" and I made that middle panel lift up with a surprise underneath:


While working on the bug card, I used a small piece of white cardstock to punch out the eyes with a 3/4" circle punch and the feet with the word window punch (I changed to black later, it looked better). Anyway, after punching, I had the leftover scrap of white and I kept seeing a silly face in it, so I used it to make this card:

I cut the hat freehand, but didn't love it, so I dragged the pointy end of the paper piercer over it to distress it some. Very quick and simple card, and silly, of course!

Hope your week is going well! Thanks so much for stopping by! Hugs and happy stamping!

    I'm such a dork. LOL! I was reading another comment and must have had my eyes crossed. Then I posted and saw it wasn't you who asked about the costumes. Blame it on my late night class and drinking too much coffee to go to sleep. LOL!
