Handmade Halloween Cards

You can design lots of handmade Halloween cards with my paper card making ideas. I have many homemade card ideas to build your own Halloween cards.

Go to Halloween card ideas For my examples of handmade cards to make a Halloween card, I use die-cut shapes, dimensional stickers and Halloween paper packs.

On this handmade card making project, used a die-cut shape that featured a row of pumpkins with silly faces. I often pick an image to feature on my Halloween card designs so I used the row of pumpkins for this one. I adhered the die-cut onto white paper and then onto black paper. On your homemade greeting card ideas, using a contrasting color helps create a nice border for your image. A 1/8" border is a good size.

When making Halloween cards or for your other handmade card ideas, use your printer to create your sentiment. I printed Happy Halloween on lightweight cardstock paper and then cut it out into a small rectangular shape. I then taped it onto black paper.

I loved using this green paper on my Halloween card crafts. The paper print had a design on it but design wasn't too busy so it didn't fight with the featured image.

I incorporate lots of ribbon on my homemade Halloween cards and added an orange bow to help coordinate with the orange pumpkins on my Halloween greeting card.

I used Halloween paper prints on many of my other hand made card ideas. This paper print makes for unique Halloween cards and for my happy Halloween card, I started by applying black chalk ink around the edges of the background paper that has text on it.

I used a busy Halloween paper print for the top of the card and a not-so-busy print on the bottom. I separated the two prints with a solid orange and black paper. I also used orange ribbon on this handmade Halloween card as well as a dimensional sticker of a bat.

I decided to use the stripe paper to be the feature on this card.  The orange ribbon and crow sticker is just an accent to the paper.
