Woof woof! Did you miss some spooky fun last month? Well, I sure did! That's why for this week's Fandom Friday, I'm diving headfirst into Halloween a little late but with just as much excitement! I've created an adorable handmade card featuring the oh-so-cute Ghoul Squad stamp set from the amazing Kindred Stamps. Even though this particular set is currently taking a little ghostly nap (aka sold out!), be sure to add it to your wish list because you never know when it might reappear, especially as the spooky season creeps closer!

For this card, I decided to put a little twist on a fantastic sketch from Call Me Crafty Al's "Show Us Your Sheetload" series. You can find the original inspiration linked in my video's description on YouTube, but I tweaked it just a tad to bring my specific vision to life. I layered some spooky skeleton patterned paper onto a black A2 card base, then added a strip of sunny yellow cardstock where I stamped the playful sentiment "You Make Halloween Not So Scary" in a rich black ink.
To create a tag-like element without actually making a tag, I used a corner chomper on a piece of orange gingham paper and adhered it to the right side of the card front. The star of the show, the sweet little dog dressed as a ghost from the Kindred Stamps set, is popped up on foam adhesive for some delightful dimension. Finally, I scattered a few bat embellishments across the top for an extra touch of spooky charm and added some highlights with a white gel pen. For all the details on the dimensions and the original sketch inspiration, make sure you watch my full video! You won't want to miss it!
