We bought 8' boards, cut them in the shop, stained them & let them dry!
These cut wood strips measure approx. 3/4 x 1 1/2 x 6".
I used 3 of these wood strips for this one decor piece.
I added some words along the front edge!
And......did you notice that I added a wreath onto the house window.
I fussy cut the little bow that is on the wreath, directly from the 
A Little Christmas DSP= $13.00 September-December catalog pg. 64. 
And then added 3 red Rhinestones onto the wreath 
that I colored with a Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blend too.

Frightfully Fun Ghost Cards

Check out these 2 cute ghost cards.
 
THIS OR THAT?
Which do you like better- 
The horizontal one- LEFT?
OR 
The vertical one- RIGHT? 
 
I used the exact same pieces of supplies to make them both, but flipped the DSP over or turned the card base to give them totally different looks.
 
Everyone that joined me for my Halloween Treats Classes this month got to choose which one of these cards they were going to make. 
 
 These ghosts just make me smile!!
 
I fold the front of the card base backwards so that this could be a z fold card.
And the spiderweb DSP here is the reverse side of the ghost DSP!
So cool huh!
 
Notice the ghost?
He has black eyes & mouth.
How did I do that?
I just added a black dimensional behind his face when sticking him to the ghost layer on the backside.

Here are the supplies & measurements.
stamp set:  'Oh My Fright' 
card stock:
  • Basic Gray- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 4 1/4" for card base
  • Smoky Slate- 4 x 5 1/4"- emboss using Swirls of Magic Embossing Folder
  • Smoky Slate-  2" strip- stamp words onto & punch out with 1 3/4" Circle Punch
  • Vellum- 2 3/4" strip- punch out circle using 2 3/8" Circle Punch 
  • Basic White- 2" strip- die cut ghosts
  • Basic White- 3 1/2 x 4 3/4"- for inside of card
