Today’s modern spin on a Halloween card offers a sneak peek of the Stampin’ Up! Tricks & Treats Dies. The trio of die cut candy corn is the focus of this card. However, it’s a sketch you can use over and over with a trio of your choice (hearts, stars, flowers – you get the idea)! Need more sketch ideas? Check out my FREE Stampin’ Pretty Sketchbook here.
WHAT I LOVE! Don’t miss that the Tricks & Treats Dies include a treat holder die that can deliver a treat or small gift for any occasion with panache. It measures 4″ Tall x 3″ Wide x 1-1/8″ Deep.
