Hello everyone, Sylvia here with a few Halloween cards.  I know some of you do not make Halloween cards but I usually make a few cards for the children and some treat bags just in case any children call to Trick or Treat on the 31st.

Above is a card for the older children featuring a zombie and graveyard with bats flying round a full moon.  The background was created with distress inks and the foreground was hand cut from black card with machine cut bats, tree and crosses.

Orange and purple with fun images are used with black for the not too scarey cards made for the younger children.

Materials used for these cards:

• Dark Violet Plain Card 240gsm, Mandarin Orange Plain Card 240gsm, Black Smooth Card 250gsm, White Card Linen 255gsm, Daffodil Yellow Smooth Card 240gsm and Apple Green Card Plain 240gsm
• Papermilldirect pearlised square envelopes
• Sizzix Tim Holtz Alterations die lost zombie
• Tonic Studio pretty piazza window box die set
• various Halloween cutting files from the Silhouette Studio
• distress inks
