Halloween Tri-Fold Card

I think it is safe to show you these cards. I mailed a "stack full" of these on Monday to all of our family members. They should all have them by now! I make holiday cards for both sides of the family for each major holiday only because I love to create!

I used a regular card size piece of cardstock....only instead of folding it in half, I folded it in thirds. I alternated the folds so the card sits accordian style........

This is the card laying flat so you can see all the wonderful detail......

This is how many I made!


Supplies Used:
  • Cardstock: Basic Black, Perfect Plum, Pumpkin Pie, Wild Wasabi and Whisper White
  • Stamp Sets: Wicked Cool, Seasonal Sentiments
  • Punches: Bat Punch, Decorative Label Punch, 2 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch
  • Tools: Big Shot, Spider Web Impessions Folder
  • Accessories: Ravin Lace Trim, Rhinestone Jewels, Stampin' Dimensionals, Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint
  • Inks: Basic Black, River Rock
You probably can't tell from the photo's but I used Shimmer Mist on all the bats and they just shine with glitter! Shimmer mist is made using a small spray bottle with 1 ounce of rubbing alcohol mixed with about 10 drops of Shimmer Paint. It's an easy way of creating your own spray glitter in a bottle!
