Hello, friends! I thought I’d get an early start on some Halloween cards for the year. Normally, I only need a handful of cards for my nieces and nephews. But now that I’m giving cards to a local retirement home, I’ll need A LOT more. During the holidays, I give enough cards for every resident. That’s around 90 – 100 cards. I don’t care for the scary side of Halloween. So I’m making cute cards instead using Doodlebug Design’s BooVille collection. This is from their 2017 release. 

I used my 6×6 Paper Pad Tutorial and one paper pad to make 34 cards.

Because it takes many hours to use up a 6×6 paper pad, this video has been sped up 7 times. The real time recording was just under 5 hours, not including any of my planning, prep, or die cutting time. Watch the video below or click HERE to see it on YouTube.

In addition to using the 6×6 paper pad, I also used 21 sheets of  8 1/2″ x 11″ and 2 sheets of  12″ x 12″ solid colored cardstock.

Cardstock colors – 

Black – Recollections

Meadow green – Coredinations

Orange – Coredinations

Purple – unknown

Here are close up pictures of the cards I made, including sketches and measurements. Operation Write Home sketches are the only ones that already provide measurements. For all the other sketches, I simply figure the measurements out on my own, for what works for me. All of my cards are A2 size. Go HERE to see my video explaining how I determine card sketch measurements. All cards are made using Doodlebug Design’s BooVille 6×6 paper pad.

  • Another cute set of cards Kristie. I love Halloween paper but only use it on layouts – probably the reason I have a collection of it now ;).
    I really like the Mojo Monday sketch 361, but it's hard to truly pick a favorite as they are all so cute.

  • Oh golly, these are so fun and adorable, Kristie! Really like that you used the Lawn Fawn stamp set. When I went to pull out this paper pad (yay, I already own it, but have used a bit of it), I found I have several DB Halloween pads. Clearly I love them, but haven't had the chance to use them. LOL Can't wait to watch you in action putting these cute cards together. You have used some fun sketches. 🙂

  • Thank you, NannaT! I usually buy the Halloween collections from Doodlebug every year. But this is the first time I actually finished off a Halloween 6×6. 🙂

  • Thank you, Jeanne! Yay for already owning this cute paper collection. I seem to buy the Halloween DB paper pads every year. But this is the first one I actually finished completely. Now I won't feel bad about buying the new one when it's released. 🙂

  • Hi Kristie, I love your videos and cards! I really like how you use mats to separate the layers. I do this when I scrapbook so love the look on cards. I have a question on your sketch measurements. Are the measurements shown for the pattern paper or the mats?

  • Thank you for your kind words, Sue! I really appreciate it. I have always been a huge fan of including matted layers.
    The measurements listed are for the pattern paper. Then I usually add 1/8" for the matted layers. I list them that way because not everyone likes to use layers on their cards. 🙂
