🎃 31 Days of Halloween – Day 1:
Trick or Treat! 👻

Hello, crafty friends!

It’s officially October, which means it’s time for something spooktacular here at Mommy Stampin’ Creations!

Today I’m kicking off my 31 Days of Halloween! 🎃

For the next 31 days, I’ll be sharing Halloween inspiration featuring handmade cards, fun paper crafting ideas, spooky little details, and plenty of creative inspiration to help us celebrate Halloween all month long.

👻 Day 1 – Trick or Treat Halloween Card

For my very first project, I created this fun Trick or Treat card with a spooky nighttime scene.

I love the combination of the dark background with the bright yellow moon and white clouds. The bare black tree gives the card just the right amount of spooky, while that adorable little ghost keeps it cute rather than scary.

And, of course, I had to add some black-and-white gingham ribbon at the top. I love how it adds another pattern and a little extra texture to the card.

The “TRICK OR TREAT” greeting finishes everything off perfectly!

🎃 Some of my favorite details:

Spooky black, gray, white and yellow color combination
Crescent moon and clouds
Bare Halloween tree
Sweet little ghost
Black-and-white gingham ribbon
Starry nighttime background
Bold Trick or Treat greeting

One of my favorite things about Halloween crafting is that you can mix cute, spooky and whimsical elements all on the same project. This card definitely has a little bit of everything!

🎃 Supplies Used

For today’s Halloween card, I used:
