Halloween Shutter Card


Hello my crafty friends.  Mid August I had this patterned paper out to make a card for Karen Burniston's last release, and when I was done that card I realized I had enough leftover to create a Shutter Card. I have a walkthrough of my card on YouTube:  


I really like this paper - the purple stars and dots are flocked, or felted. The first photo is what the card looks like coming out of the envelope, and below you can see the card partially open. 


When the sides are fully open the shutters reveal a cute spider.


Adding an acetate panel behind the opening, allows you to add embellishments on top to look like they are floating. That is what I did here with those tiny enamel dots.


Since there isn't a lot of room inside to write a message, I added a stamped panel on the back with a scrap of the patterned paper and a few more pieces from Doodlebug Designs.


I have quite a few items from Doodlebug Designs for Halloween, and will link them below in addition to what I used on this card.
