Cards Against Humanity DIY Halloween Costume

0 Comments

A DIY Cards Against Humanity Halloween costume is an excellent last minute costume idea that works for couples and groups!

If you’re anything like me, sometimes inspiration strikes just a little too late. Not with this costume though! I managed to pull off some last minute Halloween costumes with 30 minutes to spare until trick or treat time.

I made these Cards Against Humanity sweaters for Halloween a few years ago, and they’ve become our easy go-to when having to get dressed up. They’re amusing, keep us warm, and were insanely easy to make. All it took was a quick trip to Walmart, and about half an hour to cut and press the vinyl. The hardest part what deciding what semi-appropirate phrases to use!

Making DIY Cards Against Humanity Costumes

If you’re familiar with the Cards Against Humanity game, you know that in each round, one player drops a black card with a fill in the blank or question. All other players then choose one of their white cards to either fill in the blank or answer the question. The goal is to share the most hilarious/inappropriate answer.

For the costume version, there should be one black top and the rest should be white. This works perfectly for couples: one person in white and one person in black. And even better for groups, with one person in black and everyone else in white with a different phrase.

We used comfy sweaters, since Halloween for the past few years has been rather chilly. It’s looking like more of the same this year. A plain ole t-shirt would be perfect too.

For my DIY costumes, I used my Cricut to cut out white and black vinyl, that was picked up last minute from Walmart. In Cricut Design Space, I typed out all the wording (including “Cards Against Humanity” for the back of the sweaters) using the Cards Against Humanity font, which is: Helvetica Neue. Don’t forget to use some rounded rectangles to recreated the logo, and you’re good go to!

I always use my EasyPress with the Cricut heat guide suggested settings. In this case, it was probably press for 30 seconds at 315º F. An iron works just as well, it may just take a bit longer.

And there you have it! An easy last minute DIY halloween costume!
