Halloween Shaker Window

Hello Friends

I have one more Halloween card for you today.  It is featuring a shaker window and some cute little frightened kitties!  I repurposed a mix of dies as you will see in my list.  Dies used in this card: Garden Window, Ghost House, Spooky Kitties, Santa Gnome in Throne (chair) and Witchy Jack-O-Lantern (pumpkin)


Design Steps: 


1.  Use a black A2 card base, cut a piece of orange DP 5 3/8 x 4 1/8, cut a strip of kraft card stock 3/4 x 5 3/8 (run through an embossing folder for some texture)


2.  Glue the orange DP to the black card base then glue the kraft strip to the bottom of the orange DP


3.  Using the following dies Garden Window, (cut out 4 windows) Spooky Kitties, Santa Gnome in Throne (chair) Ghost House and Witchy Jack-O-Lantern (pumpkin) Cut out these colors of card stock: black, dark grey, kraft, white, yellow, green, spider DP, Star blue DP, orange and orange DP. (Not pictured pumpkin) Ink the edges with coordinating ink and then assemble the pieces


4.  To create the shaker window glue the acetate to the back of the first window then glue on top of that the other 3 window frames.  Add dimension tape to the back of the window.  Pour in the shaker bits.  For the scene in the background of the window cut a piece of starry purple DP to fit behind the window.  Add the hill for grass. Then add the Ghost House (I decided to cut off the ghost).  I backed the house with yellow card stock and glued it to the hill as shown.  Then take the background panel and lay it face down on the dimension tape


5.  Flip the window over and add the window sill and the kitty as shown above


6.  Glue the window to the right side of the card as shown above


7.  Pop up the chair and glue the kitty to the chair 


8.  Add the sentiment and the pumpkin and your card is complete









Thanks so much for stopping by! 

Blessings and Take Care
