Cute Pumpkin handmade card idea by Julie
I started this spooky little card with a Creepy Halloween Paper from PolkaDoodles, but before hitting print, I added a few digital spider webs at a low opacity along with the “EEK!” sentiment, also from PolkaDoodles. Once printed, I added some black acrylic paint splatters to give the background a slightly messier, spookier finish, then matted the panel onto a black card base. The Stacked Pumpkin Trio image was printed separately, coloured with Copic markers, and fussy cut before being attached with a wobbler mechanism— three pumpkins now wobble and sway! For a little extra drama, I added Glossy Dots to the EEK sentiment and the pumpkins’ eyes, giving them that shiny, dimensional finish. A few sparkly bat embellishments from my stash finished everything off with just the right amount of Halloween sparkle. Cute, spooky, and it moves... I’m calling that a Halloween win!

Hello! Autumn is welcome to move in with me, joyfully! I absolutely love this golden season, and staying true to that theme, I’ve made leaves glow with radiant golden shine! I started by creating a watercolour background using warm brown, yellow and terracotta inks, then die-cut the leaves straight from that painted panel. You’d never guess it, but I used the Sweet Poinsettia flower Craft Cutting Dies for this! It works perfectly for autumn foliage too don’t you think? For the second background, I blended yellow, orange and red inks into another soft watercolour wash, trimmed it to a strip, and layered it onto my card base. Then it was time for plenty of liquid gold! I brushed it over every leaf and flicked delicate splatters across the card for that extra sparkle.
To finish, I added a lovely sentiment from the Christmas & Everyday Sentiment Strip Pack because if this card doesn’t sparkle, I don’t know what does!
