    Joan Bardee here and I am delighted to share 3 fun and colorful cards using some cute products in Spellbinders’ Boo Dance Party Collection. Dancin’ Ghost You can’t have a Halloween Party without a dancing ghost, right? This Dancin’ Ghost is carrying a cute little bag full of die-cut candies, and the best part is that its striped legs swing back and forth! Added a tiny hanging spider from Boo Dance Party Sentiments Clear Stamp Set to the ghost and accented it with a black sequin for a fun detail.

    Hey there, crafty friends! I’m so excited to be back here on the Spellbinders blog today! My name is Suzanna, but you may know me online and Instagram as Made in Mojave. I’m sharing four mini slimline cards today that I created with the Halloween collection. Each one is a little mix of cute and spooky, my favorite Halloween combo! My first card is the most simple of the bunch, but also my favorite. Using a super versatile hot foil plate, I added Aura foiled stars to a black background.

I currently live just outside Nashville along with my handy husband, 11-year-old son, and our two Yorkies, Max and Penny. If you’d like to visit with me more later, you can also find me on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and YouTube. Today I am sharing a set of favor boxes I made using the new Halloween 2021 collection.
