Cricut Cardz Challenge #44

Hi Everybody!
Another great challenge going on over at Cricut Cardz Challenge !  This time we were to make a Halloween Z-fold or S-fold card using any carts or colors we wanted.  I was a bit nervous when I saw this was our challenge, since I haven't been making cards that long, and I've never done any folds other than folding in half!  I've never even done a gate fold or anything! So I went on YouTube and searched for how to make this type of card, and funny enough Mary's YouTube channel came up with a tutorial.  Here's what I came up with, and the details:

*All cuts from the Happy Haunting cartridge
*Used my Gypsy for sizing
*tree cut @ 4.25"
*ghost cut @ 3"
*grave cut @ 2 1/2"
*paper = Martha Stewart (base), DCWV (grave), Best Occassion Glitter Paper (ghost)

Here's what it looks like opened up.



*I used my white gel pen for the only kind of stitching I can do!
*I added bling for the eyes on the tree.



*I used the stamp set A Haunting We Will Go by Pink Cricut. (These stamps rock!!)
*I also added red Stickles on the drops of "blood".


*This cat sticker fit perfectly on the fence and added that perfect extra dimension.
*Also stitched on the fence.
*Added green Stickles to the grass.



Hope you like it! I was happy with how it came out, and would definitely make another card with this kind of fold.  So go make your own Z-fold or S-fold card and join us over at the Cricut Cardz Challenge!

  2. Aren't you so glad you can add this fold to your design file now? This is one of my favorite folds because it's different, but so quick and easy. Wonderful job on our challenge this week. Love your sparkly ghost and cat.
