Halloween Decor

Hey there! Today I'm here with a fun Halloween Decor Project created for CutCardStock!

Do you like decorating for Halloween? If so this piece can be disiplayed on a table, shelf or hung on the wall. Mixing it with a few other Halloween elements would make a fun vignette.



Stamping

I wanted to have a witch in the project, so I chose to use one of my Julie Nutting stamps and dress her like a witch. A witch’s hat and broom were stamped from a Hampton Arts stamp set.

These items are paper pieced. They were stamped on various card stocks.

DCS Discount 8.5×11 Card Stock: Smooth Sand Castle Tan 

DCS Discount Card Stock: Vanilla Bean Brown Card Stock

DCS Discount Card Stock: Textured Flame Tree Orange Card Stock

DCS Discount Card Stock: Plum Purple 8.5×11 Discount Card Stock

Basis 8.5×11 GREY 80lb Cardstock




Different colored inks were used for stamping.



I fussy cut my pieces and put together.

Base

The base for the piece is an 8 1/2 x 7 inch piece of KRAFT CHIPBOARD .05 covered with an 8 1/2 x 7 inch piece of DCS Black GLITTER Heavyweight 12×12 Discount Card Stock.

I love this chipboard! It is so nice and sturdy! The glittered black card stock gives the illusion of stars.

Embellishment

To decorate the base background I did some die cutting and border punching. The moon piece was stamped and fussy cut. My word piece is from a Recollections Halloween paper pad, which I fussy cut. I also hand cut a piece of the gray card stock to create a larger tree base.



The punched, die cut, hand cut and paper pieced elements are added to the base.






Finishing

A few more die cut pieces added along with some stamped spiders and we’re done. 

I’m showing the option of hot gluing a piece of ribbon to the back for hanging on the wall.
