Day Three of My Five Days of Halloween Series Happy Haunting Card

 Welcome Back to My Five Days of Halloween Magic! 🎃

Hello, my crafty friends! I'm absolutely thrilled you're joining me for day three of our Halloween adventure together! If you happened to miss the spooky goodness from days one and two, I'd love for you to peek back at those posts – they're packed with frightfully fun inspiration that I think you'll adore!

Today, I'm sharing something extra special that has my crafty heart doing little happy dances! This card showcases the absolutely charming (but deliciously spooky) Happy Haunting stamp set from Lawn Fawn. While this little treasure is retired now, don't you just love how these vintage finds can create the most magical projects? Every image in this set strikes that perfect balance between adorable and eerie – exactly what makes Halloween crafting so wonderfully fun!

Let's Create This Together:

I started with a gorgeous foundation using Gorgeous Grape cardstock (8½" x 5½", scored at 4¼") – doesn't that rich, deep purple just whisper "autumn evening" to you?

For our dreamy background, I layered Basic White (3⅝" x 4⅞") onto an Old Olive mat (3⅞" x 5⅛"). Then comes my favorite part – the magical ink blending! I swept Gorgeous Grape, Misty Moonlight, and Old Olive inks across that white background, creating the most enchanting twilight sky that makes my heart sing every time I look at it.

Bringing Our Spooky Friends to Life:

The little haunted house got the royal treatment with my beloved Stampin' Blends – I used Dark and Light Smoky Slate for those weathered walls, Dark Pebbled Path for shadowy details, and a pop of Cherry Cobbler for that perfect Halloween accent.

Our sweet little ghosts? They came alive with gentle touches of Light Smoky Slate and the magic of my Colorless Blender – they look like they're floating right off the page!

And because every Halloween card deserves a little sparkle (don't you think?), I scattered some gorgeous Pink Fresh Studios amethyst gems across the design. They catch the light like tiny stars in our spooky night sky!

I'm completely smitten with how this turned out! Those classic Halloween colors paired with these endearing images create something that feels both nostalgic and fresh. There's something so satisfying about working with that traditional palette – it just feels like Halloween magic in cardstock form!

I truly hope this little creation brought a smile to your face and maybe sparked some inspiration for your own Halloween crafting adventures! Your creativity means the world to me, and I love being part of this amazing crafting community with all of you.

Don't forget to swing by tomorrow – I have something absolutely delightful brewing for day four that I cannot wait to share with you!

Until then, keep creating magic!

With love and crafty hugs,
Beth ✨

Happy Crafting, my wonderful friends!
