Let the new A Frame House star in a Halloween design – don’t save it for Christmas! Hi, Jean here blending the Winter Days and Fall Cornucopia Collections, 2 holidays and 3 friendly ghosts.
The A Frame House is the perfect setting for the friendly Haunting Ghosts and Intricate Mini Pumpkins. The evergreen wreath becomes a garland of pumpkin lights.
Cut the A Frame House triangle pieces from recycled Kraft cardstock. Brush or sponge the roof with Pinecone VersaFine Clair.
Snip the tiny section that connects the bottom right corner of the door to the triangle – to let the door swing open. Crease the door on the score line.
Cover the Kraft cardstock with Olympia Green VersaFine ink and quickly heat-emboss it with detail clear powder. Cut the door overlay, wreath and chimney cap from the inked/embossed cardstock. Save the scraps – they’ll be pumpkin stems.
Attach a strip of acetate (or transparency) between the inked door and the door overlay to so it resembles window glass.
Cut the chimney vertically from the diagonal green/rust plaid from the Nutmeg Plaid 6×6.
Cut Haunting Ghosts from watercolor paper. Attach black cardstock behind the eye cutouts.
Cut a bright orange 6×6 from the Sunrise Collection with the 2-½” wide Nested Globes die. Cut the Nutmeg Plaid 6×6 with the 3″ wide Nested Globes die.
Stamp the greeting – from the Magical Halloween Clear Stamp and Die Set – on a yellow/orange Sunrise 6×6 with Morning Mist VersaFine Clair. Quickly heat-emboss it with detail clear powder. Cut it with the matching die. Ink the edges with Cheerful VersaFine Clair.
Cut the Intricate Mini Pumpkins (or use the extras from previous cards) with the bright orange andyellow/orange 6×6 sheets. In the edges with Sunshine and Cheerful VersaFine Clair. Trim strips of the green-inked cardstock for stems.
Attach the diecuts to a recycled Kraft A6 card (4-½” x 6-¼”). Attach orange Bright Jewels. Cut an A6-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.
The A Frame House set is great for Thanksgiving cards – simply layered over a forest of fall leaves. Add it to a background of Snowflake Rub Ons for simple holiday cards. Use the top portion to cut contemporary Christmas trees too!
Thanks for visiting – see you on Friday!
