Here is another fun product that I was asked to create with. This Halloween card was so fun to use. I am not a big Halloween person but love working with the purple and green together and of course adding the Black Glitter paper is always fun.
When I saw the pumpkin fall like border I immediately thought of peaches. So I thought this would be a perfect image to add to the peach suite.
I added the Cute Halloween DSP and layered the front up before I used the right side of the border die to cut an edge so I could adhere the border to the trim of the card. When the card is closed you can see the Glitter paper accent the inside of the card.
I just had to add this adorable little hat from Frightful Tags. I also cut the hat out in Granny Apple Green and Crushed Curry to add some accent to the hat. Cutting the sentiment label out of an accent color is one of the techniques I love to do. If you look closely you can see that I also did that with the little ghost. By offsetting the two layers it looks like the ghost is looking to the left so I also added a tiny piece of black DSP from the stripes behind his eyes. This card was so fun to create.
The gems I used are retired but I am all for using up items you may have in your stash that match perfectly!

I would like to have the revised dimensions for the 6×6 paper holders with the wider sides. I have some 6×6 DSP that I have more than one pack so would love to make these storage holders with wider sides to accommodate multiple packs.
Thank you and want you to know I love your videos. You create great cards. Thank you for sharing your talent with all of us.

Thank you Linda. I appreciate it.
As for the dimensions I am updating my PDF and I am also going to be doing a video on it next Sunday (I hope). Let me get that updated and I do a video on Sunday and post an updated PDF. Thank you!

Dear Marcie,
Thank you so much for sharing your genius with us. What a great teacher you are.
With regard to asking for specific things we’d like to see, it would be great to focus on dies in general. I know that sounds far too general but I was thinking of focusing on dies that stand alone. It’s impossible to even ponder the possibilities because your ideas are so far reaching but lucky us. We’re oftentimes the first to know about the unbelievable creations you come up with. Talented. So very talented.
Again, I thank you so much for all you do for those with whom you come in contact. You are soothing and you bring forth the best we can be. You are hope and make many of us who are alone in so many ways get totally lost in the
creativity you are. A very talented and giving person you are.
Blessings to you & yours.
Sincerely,
M-

Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate it. My hope is to craft with my “friends” and relax and everyone have a great time. I, of course, would love it if people would learn something and take it back to their crafting space.
I will work on the dies. I just did one with the Rugged Icon dies. I will continue to bring the stand alone dies into projects. Thank you very much for your suggestion.
