Pocket card........Halloween!!

I had made this POCKET CARD file some time ago but just got around to using it last night. I am still using some of the scraps my LSS owner gave me so I decided to make another Halloween card...because I SEND SO MANY *okie rolls eyes at self and wonders why she keeps making them since she has never sent a Halloween card before in her life*. I just sized my objects to the where I was going to use it on the card then copy and pasted onto a new mat for making the Halloween version. But the version for download is just a plain version. So you can add what you like, or add nothing at all.......totally up to you! *okie hopes everyone likes the versatitilty of the card files she makes*

BUT!! If you want to make this particular card you can download the POCKET HALLOWEEN CARD. All of the work is done for you! *okie grins big* The carts used are George, SYI, PDDU and Paper Pups. If you don't have all of those then you can just delete what you don't need and add what you do.

So anyway here are the photos. I used Paper Doll Dress Up for the web and the spider. I did add a pop dot under the spider. OH yeah.....this is an A2 card so fits in a standard size envie. But with all the stuff it will require extra postage because it is over 1/4" thick. I used a velcro dot to keep the card closed and added some Scotch 2 way glue to make the card stay closed.








This is how it looks opened up. I used Paper Doll Dress Up for the Ghosts and fence. The jack-o-lantern is with Stretch Your Imagination and the BOO! is from Paper Pups. And I doodled, then I doodled, and then doodled a little more HA HA HA! Of course I had to ink it! My two staples of scrapping and card making.....INK AND STICKLES! LOL





Here is what it looks like with the tags pulled out. Now you can see the fence. I left one tag blank so writing could go there. The mats and ribbon are purple, but kinda look blue to me in the photo.....WHAT IS UP WITH THAT?? You can see the velcro in this picture. Oh if you click on the picture it will show the larger version and you can see the detail better, especially the fence.

Anywho....hope ya'll enjoy the card!

  15. This is one adorable card, and so versatile. I think if you are willing to share the cutfile I would like to see if the tags are big enough to attach a gift card on.
    Thanks,
