How fun is it to use this designer paper with the witches’ brooms all over it and then put a Halloween witch holding a broomstick on the front of the card as in this Toil & Trouble Witch’s Broomstick Halloween Card!
This Halloween designer paper from Stampin’ Up! in the new Holiday Catalog is called Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper. It has lots of cute images for all kinds of Halloween cards, bags, tags, and other projects! You will have fun making all kinds of cards and things out of it! I just started with a card base of Pumpkin Pie and a layer of Basic Black. Next comes the designer paper pattern with the broomsticks.
For the focal point of the card, I cut out the witch by hand from the Toil & Trouble DSP and mounted her on two ovals, one using Crushed Curry. You know you can find out the coordinating colors of any designer paper by looking on the back of the paper.
To finish off the card I tied on a piece of Crumb Cake twine from the Nature’s Twine package of 4 colors. After that, I realized I didn’t really have a good place to put a greeting, so I left it off. I can stamp something on the inside or just a personal note. It’s not a rule that every single card has to have a greeting on the front!
I hope you will check out this Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper and see if it gets your Halloween spirit moving! Here’s another card I made with this designer paper by cutting out the witch and a cauldron! Don’t forget to join Paper Pumpkin, too and get a spooky cute box this month!
