Karen Burniston's Designer Challenge - October 2024 - Haunted!

  Hello Crafty Friends and Welcome! It's Designer Challenge time once again and out theme for October 2024 is Haunted! Holy moly it's already October!!! This year has flown by. My card for you today uses the Tiny Trees Pop-Up to create a Haunted Forest!!

For this card, I wanted to put in four trees (I wish I could have put in more) so I went with a 5x7 card base from black cardstock. 

I dug through my patterned paper stash and found some great purple swirl paper. I thought this would be perfect for my haunted forest floor. I also added some fun halloween paper to the sides of my card and added a strip of green cardstock for trim. 

I die cut all my trees from heavy weight smooth black cardstock. I die cut the extensions for the trees using the same paper as the card base. Then I glued my trees in using Lineco Neutral pH adhesive in my fine tip bottle. 

I then die cut my ghosts using Karen Burniston's Halloween Elements and a heavy weight vellum. This way, you could still see through them and they were strong enough to handle being folded down with the trees. 

I added a place to sign the card, using the labels in the Raising Platform Pop-Up. Then I added some stickers from the patterned paper pack. 

For the front of the card, I continued the same patterned paper, adding the Happy Halloween sentiment and some more ghosts. I tried to keep the front more simple since all the fun is on the inside!
