Just so I am sure I understand... we are to take store-bought Halloween cards and alter them. If so, are Halloween cards available to buy in stores as early as the beginning of September? I never buy greeting cards so I've no idea.

I've never even seen Halloween greeting cards...

PumpkinSeedMama 08/ 1/2007 #

What you do is......get some blank cardstock, cut it to size, fold it in half to make it into a card. Then you can alter it and add Halloween embellishments. Or....you can buy some blank pre-made solid color cards and then embellish them. That's what I do.

Here is an example: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/1003/gurneyz/2007_0731ALTER0005.jpg

Excellent! I was hoping it would not require store-bought cards. I will have fun with this :-)

Hi there. I just (requested/signed up). I'm a newbie but LOVE this concept of sharing! I have already started my halloween cards, because I love the colors and papers that are available. Hopefully cards like these will qualify?

I sure hope the examples that skturbokitty gave are okay as well. I can make cards like that, but I don't have very many vintage halloween images if they need to be more vintagey. Thanks!
