A Spooky Haunted House for Halloween – 5×7 Card

This is my absolute favourite card from this Halloween season, but I had to get creative to make it work. See I didn’t actually have a haunted house die. What I did have was the Sunny Studio Gingerbread House die. Yes, this house is actually meant to create a fun, colourful and festive Christmas gingerbread house. But with the right colours, a few holes in the roof, some boarded up windows, you can make light and happy into dark and dreary pretty quick!

Overall, this was a super fun scene to put together, with a blended background, all kinds of different die elements and a mix of cute stamps – I really put my different supplies to work to make this one.

I did have to make this card in a different size than normal, since it just didn’t fit the way I wanted on an A2 – so I upped it to a 5×7 to get the balance right. Still able to be mailed without any extra postage or damage to the card.
