Create a detailed handmade Halloween greeting card with this haunted house SVG cut-file set.
The card front features a tall haunted house surrounded by twisted bare trees, pointed fencing and an arched opening. “Happy Halloween” is incorporated directly into the cutout artwork, keeping the complete front design connected and suitable for cardstock cutting.
A separate folded insert sits behind the outer card, adding color through the windows, lettering and surrounding openings. The insert also creates two clean interior pages where you can write your own Halloween message.
The finished card measures 5 × 7 inches and has been successfully test-cut with Cricut.

Recommended Materials
For best results, you will need:

- Cricut or another SVG-compatible cutting machine
- Standard cutting mat
- Fine-point cutting blade
- Ruler, scoring tool or bone folder
- Paper adhesive of your choice
The product images show black cardstock with a pumpkin-orange insert. You can use any color combination that suits your Halloween project.
Designed for Cardstock Cutting
This design was created as a connected cutout rather than a collection of floating decorative pieces.
The trees, haunted house, fencing and stencil lettering remain connected to the surrounding cardstock. The separate insert provides the contrasting background color and prevents the openings from appearing empty when the card is assembled.
Because the design contains fine branches, windows and lettering, use a clean cutting mat and a blade suitable for detailed cardstock work.
File Compatibility
The included SVG files are intended for cutting software that accepts SVG files, including:
- Cricut Design Space
- Silhouette Studio Designer Edition
- Brother CanvasWorkspace
- Other SVG-compatible cutting software
Please confirm that your software supports SVG imports before purchasing.
