Hello Crafty Friends! It’s August Release Day at Pretty Pink Posh and I’m so excited to share a pair of fun Halloween-themed caramel apple cards featuring products from Pretty Pink Posh’s latest release, including the Halloween Caramel Apples, Pinking Ovals, Boo Greetings, Halloween Silhouettes Stencil Collection, and Rounded Stitched Rectangles. The Halloween Caramel Apples set is such a fun and unique die set, allowing you to create and customize your own festive caramel apples with lots of adorable details.
To begin, I created a soft pink background by ink blending Tattered Rose Distress Oxide Ink through the Halloween Silhouettes Stencil. Once the ink was dry, I die cut the panels using the second largest die from the Rounded Stitched Rectangles set.
Next, I die cut two of the largest Pinking Ovals from gold speckled cardstock and two of the second largest ovals from white cardstock. I adhered the white ovals to the gold layers to create the focal panels.
For the caramel apples, I die cut two apple bases and ink blended them with Festive Berries and Candied Apple Distress Oxides. One apple was decorated with a spider web, while the other featured the adorable ghost face, both die cut from white cardstock. I ink blended the ghost’s eyes and mouth, along with the spiders and bats, using Black Soot Distress Oxide Ink. For the spider web apple, I added the icing layer, blending it with Kitsch Flamingo and Spun Sugar Distress Oxides. To give the icing a realistic glossy finish, I applied glossy accents and set the apples aside to dry.
Using the sprinkle die from the set, tI created colourful sprinkles and inked them with Wilted Violet, Black Soot, Twisted Citron, Mowed Lawn, Spun Sugar, and Festive Berries Distress Oxides before adhering them to the icing.
To finish the apples, I die cut bows from both polka dot patterned paper and pink cardstock. The sticks were ink blended with Antique Linen Distress Oxide, with a touch of Gathered Twigs along the edges.
Once the glossy accents had completely dried, I wrapped each caramel apple in cellophane and tied them with the layered bows. I completed the cards with white heat embossed sentiments on black cardstock and added a stamped “Boo” from the Boo Greetings Set on white cardstock.
Thanks so much for joining me today! I hope these spooky sweet caramel apple cards inspire you to create some fun Halloween projects of your own. Happy crafting!
