"Spooktacular" Invitation by Tammy G Weir


Halloween Invitation



Supplies: 
  • Judikins Diamond Glaze
  • Glitter Paper  3 1/4" x 4 1/4" mat
  • Black - Red - White Markers
  • 1- small black brad
  • 1 - 6" x 12" Cosmo Criket Haunted Gothic Scrapbook Paper
  • 1 - 12" x 12" Cosmo Criket Haunted Journaling Cards Scrapbook Paper
  • 1 -  12" x 12" Cosmo Criket Haunted Strip Tease Scrapbook Paper
  • 1- 2 1/2" Cardstock Circle punched or cut from Black Paper
  • Happy Halloween rubber stamp from DRS #22G259 or your stamp of choice.


Instructions:
  • Using the 6" x 12" Haunted Gothic paper make a score line 3" in from both the left side and right side - fold each side in to meet in the middle - this will create your gate fold card base
  • Next using the Haunted Journaling Cards paper cut 1 of the six journaling cards (Spooktacular! was used for this sample) and adhere it to the center of the inside of your card.  Taking your black and red markers fill in any information regarding your event.
  • Now we will begin assembling the cover of your card
  • From the Haunted Journal Cards paper cut out the 3" x 4" framed card
  • Adhere the framed card to the 3 1/4" x 4 1/4" glitter mat
  • Stamp you Halloween Greeting to the center of the framed card and then adhere matted card to the left flap on the cover of your card; making sure to only adhere 1/2 of the mat to the left flap so the other half is centered over the right side flap when card is closed.  
  • Cut co -ordinating strip from the Haunted Strip tease paper 6" long.  Score every 1" along length of strip and fold - this will create a feel of depth and texture. Adhere strip to left side only along bottom of front card *see sample above
  • Using your 2 1/2" circle and your white marker draw straight lines from center of circle out to the edge creating a "cob web" effect.  Once you have your "cob web" drawn using Judikins Diamond Glaze lightly apply glaze over each spider web line.  Allow to dry and attach to top right corner of matted journal card using small black brad.
