Hi crafty friends! How are you today? Are you ready to start a new week again already? Dang, the time is going by fast this month!! Today I'm sharing another project I made with the brand new Pretty Pink Posh Fall Release! I adore this new release so much! I shared two cards last week for the big blog hop, that had a fall theme. Well, today I used the new products with some other PPP items, to make a Halloween Card!! I'm calling it a Stack o' Jacks! Today is the start of the big Instagram Hop to celebrate this new PPP Release! So be sure to head over to Instagram and leave a comment to be able to win a PPP gift certificate! As always with an Instagram Hop, I'm sharing my card here too. This card is full of bright colors and it makes me smile – just like those jack o' lanterns!
My finished card is a custom size: 4.5" x 6.5" and it's a white card base. I made a slightly larger card in this case to fit all the pumpkins in! I layered pretty black stripes paper, then my ink blended layer…. Those big fat smiling pumpkins are the stars of the card! I combined the Pumpkin Shaker Dies, the Stitched Pumpkins Dies, and the boo script for my sentiment!
For this pretty background, I cut a sheet of white cardstock to fit the layer. I used Fossilized Amber Distress Ink and a blender brush to ink blend just the top 2/3 of the panel. I used the Boo Stamp Set (the stars) and stamped stars over my ink blending using the same color. I feel like it looks like an Autumn sky!! And I love the stars!!
I die cut all the pumpkins from orange cardstock. I used a blender brush and two shades of orange distress inks to ink blend the bottom portion of each pumpkin. I also added some black paint splatters. I die cut the faces from black cardstock.
For the stem, I used woodgrain paper and for the leaves I used plaid patterned paper. I felt like that plaid just looked so perfect with the orange!
For my finishing touches, I added the word "boo" as my sentiment, and I sprinkled the card with Platinum Pearls…They are the perfect gray shimmer!!
That's it for today's spooky fun project!! Be sure to head over to Instagram to leave comments in the hop! I hope you have a fantastic day! Thanks for spending part of it with me here! I'll be back tomorrow with a new card for The Greetery! XOXO

I am not a halloween person but your cards are so dang cute ♥
Now you’re speaking my language!! Halloween for me… PPP has the best Halloween stuff. Love this stack of cuteness. The colors are too perfect and I just love it. I am going to try and get to Instagram today. I am so far behind on all of the posts because of our remodel. Fingers crossed… TFS
I love Halloween in all its versions (cute and spooky). And pumpkins are my favorite during fall.
Question: Did you use the shaker set as one of your pumpkins and then 2 of the others was from the stitched set?
Stop it, Wanda!!! That card is ADORABLE!!!!!!
