Hi there crafty friends! Today I have a sort of a crafty lookback from the past few years featuring some of my favorite Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous and Sizzix projects. Hope these will provide some inspiration to you as you are getting into the Halloween making season…there is tons of frightful, some delightful and one super creepy card!

Too Old for This Sheet 

This card was inspired by a sweatshirt I saw at Target and I knew it had to be made into a card as soon as I got home. I cut the ghost from black and white cardstocks and then cut out my letters after backing the cardstock with Sizzix adhesive sheets to make placing them a breeze.

Just A Bunch Of Hocus Pocus

This card features a background of Distress Inks and Distress Mica Stain with a bunch of stars from the Halloween Doodles set stamped all over the background. Once my background was dry, I stamped the sentiment from the Bold Frights over top. This is a super easy one to create with any Halloween Backgrounds you may have on hand.

By The Light of the Moon 

The fun background on this card was created with Distress Mica Stains – I used some of the Christmasy colors, a little masking on the moon and lots of stamping and splatter over top.

Happy Halloween

This card uses my favorite stamp set from this year, Tiny Frights. To create this card, I stamped all of the images in a pattern onto my pink cardstock using Black Soot Archival Ink. I then stamped them onto colored cardstock, cut them out and paper pieced them onto the images I had already stamps. Time consuming, but relaxing and oh so worth it!

Something Wicked This Way Comes

This card uses the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Moon Masks with Crypt Grit Paste and lots of inky blending for the background. This year I would definitely switch it up for some glow paste :)

Layered Dots Trio
These are super easy and fun to put together and you can make SO many different color combos perfect for almost any occasion. I kept these really simple with a bold saying and one tiny accent to make them even more fun!

Creepy Eye Guy

One of my all time favorite creepy cards. I did ome super careful cutting with an x-acto knife and layered the stamping and adding a creepy eye to make it look really real! Once my images were
