Them Bones Halloween card

We love Halloween at our house. Them Bones is a fun Halloween suite in the Sept. - Dec. 2023 mini catalog. One of the papers in the suite can be used for your card front. Another paper provides the skeletons, this is an easy card to put together.

Card Base: Cut Starry Sky 8 ½ X 11 paper in half widthwise. You now have two pieces 8 ½ X 5 ½ Fold one of the pieces in half lengthwise for your card front. The card front now measures 4 ¼ X 5 ½.

Card Mat: Cut Basic Black paper 4 X 5 ¼.

Card Front: I used this paper from the Them Bones paper pack. If I cut 5 ⅛ across from the bottom of each side, then cut 3 ⅞ wide pieces so your card front measures
3 ⅞ X 5 ⅛. You can get 6 card front pieces from one piece of 12 X 12 paper. Save the strip of paper left from each side, it is all stars - you can use it for the card insert strip. Attach the card front to the black mat. Attach card front/mat to the Starry Sky card base.

Use dies from Bag of Bones die set (or fussy cut) a Skeleton and animal from this paper.

Attach skeleton and animal to card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Add Glow in the Dark bats to the card front.

Card Insert: For the inside of your card, cut a piece of Basic White 4 X 5 ¼. Cut a piece of the left over strip of star paper from card front ½ X 4. Attach to the top of the card insert. Stamp a sentiment from Bag of Bones with black ink before attaching this piece inside your card.
