I started with a base of Basic Black cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I ran through the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder (you can find all the measurements I used below the Supply List). Next I made a banner using the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper and adhered it to the card front (to make a banner, at the bottom of your paper, in the middle, make a small cut up the center; then cut from each corner to the middle).
Then I layered a piece of the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper onto a piece of Basic Black cardstock. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back before adhering it to the front of the card. The sentiment was stamped in Memento ink using the stamp set, Frightfully Cute onto a piece of Basic White cardstock that was cut out using the Frightful Tags Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the upper half of the sentiment. I had planned to place the sentiment a bit higher on the Designer Series Paper but I didn’t want to cover up any of the cute bats so I placed it where you could still see the upside down bat.
To complete the card, I added two Matte Black Dots on either side of the sentiment.

Today’s card features Stampin’ Up! Cute Halloween 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper and the Cutest Halloween Bundle which includes the Cutest Halloween Stamp Set and the Halloween Punch. Unfortunately, overnight, the bundle and punch went into backorder** status (the stamp set is not on backorder) but for this project, it’s very easy to fussy cut the pumpkins and cat (these shapes were cut directly out of the Cute Halloween Designer Series Paper). I don’t love fussy cutting but these shapes are easy to cut out. You can access my free tutorial for this card below the Supply List!
** When an item is in backorder status, you can still add it to your cart. The rest of your order will ship as usual and when the backordered item is back in stock, Stampin’ Up! will ship it separately to you. The Cutest Halloween Bundle is estimated to be back in stock the week of November 1st.

I started with one of the scored card bases in the Hand-Penned Memories & More Cards & Envelopes Pack (each package contains enough card bases & envelopes to make 20 cards). Then I chose one of the 4″ x 3″ cards and adhered it to a piece of Highland Heather cardstock (not included). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the card front.
Using the Layering Circles Dies, I cut a circle out of Highland Heather cardstock using the Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I placed one of the stickers included in the Card Pack in the center of the circle, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it in the lower left-hand corner.
To complete the card, I added three Elegant Faceted Gems (not included in the Card pack) to the front of the card. This was a very quick and easy card to make!

I think at one time or another we’ve all been stuck and don’t know what to create. The best place to look is the Stampin’ Up! catalog as it’s filled with so many ideas! The inspiration for today’s card came directly from the catalog (page 25 in the Annual Catalog)!
I started with a base of Fresh Freesia cardstock and then added a layer of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper. Next, I added a layer of Vellum cardstock but before adding it to the card, I placed it inside one of the Meadow Moments Embossing Folders and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. To adhere it to the front of the card, I placed Mini Glue Dots in the middle where I knew they would be covered up.
I used the Painted Labels Dies to cut the shape I used in the center of the card out of Pansy Petals Designer Series Paper. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
The sentiment piece was cut out of Basic White cardstock using the Tasteful Labels Dies. I used the stamp set Measure of Love to stamp the sentiment in Evening Evergreen ink. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the Painted Labels shape.
Fresh Freesia cardstock: 11″ x 4-1/4″ or 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″

I started with a piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock for the base of my card and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder.
Then, using Basic White cardstock and our Blending Brushes, I covered my paper with Just Jade ink. When I had the shade I wanted, I blended Pool Party ink and then a small amount of Pacific Point ink. As I mentioned in Monday’s post, after getting ink on my Blending Brush, I start by moving the brush in a circular motion on my grid paper and then without lifting the brush, continue on to my Basic White cardstock. This will help to prevent blotches of color.
I cut the paper down to 4-3/4″ x 2″ and then using Memento Ink, stamped leaves using the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set. Then I adhered it to a piece of Coastal Cabana cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.
I used the stamp set Pansy Patch to stamp the sentiment in Memento Ink onto a piece of Basic White cardstock. This is a photopolymer stamp set and I CUT the stamp in half so it would fit on my circle. Now my stamp is more versatile and it was easy to cut with our Paper Snips. I cut the sentiment out using our Tasteful Labels Dies. I used the Layering Circles Dies to cut a larger circle out of Coastal Cabana and then layered the two pieces together. On the back, I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the right side only and then adhered it to the card front. To complete the card, I added three Holiday Rhinestones.

Today’s card features the Stampin’ Up! Gorgeous Leaves stamp set and our Blending Brushes. If you haven’t tried using our Blending Brushes, they make it so easy to make a beautiful background. Not only will you have a one of a kind background, but it’s really relaxing too!
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Next, I used one of our Blending Brushes to pick up Magenta Madness ink and blend it over the paper until I had the shade I wanted. Then, using another Blending Brush, I lightly blended Daffodil Delight ink over the top.
Tip: After picking up the ink on the brush, brush the ink over your grid paperbefore applying it to the Basic White cardstock. If you pick up the ink and directly start blending on your Basic White, you’ll get blotches of color. I pick up the color and then blend in a circular motion on the grid paper and then, without picking up the blending brush, continue onto my paper.
After getting the color I wanted, I used the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set to stamp two different leaves in Memento Ink. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
The sentiment was stamped onto a piece of Basic White cardstock in Memento Ink using the stamp set, Biggest Wish and was cut out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to the back of the sentiment before it was adhered to the card front
Bundle Alert(save 10%): The Gorgeous Leaves Bundle #158609, includes the Gorgeous Leaves stamp set and the Intricate Leaves Dies.

I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock and then added a layer of Cajun Craze cardstock that I embossed using the Timber 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I added a square of Basic White cardstock that I embossed with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder onto a square of Bumblebee cardstock, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the card front.
I cut two leaves using the Intricate Leaves Dies out of Cajun Craze cardstock and Bumblebee cardstock. Down near the uppermost part of the stem, I added a Mini Glue Dot between the leaves to secure them together. Then I added one to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. I made a bow using two pieces of Crumb Cake Baker’s Twine (you can find this in the Baker’s Twine Essentials Pack). I added a Mini Glue Dot to the back (rolled into a ball) and adhered the bow to the leaves.
The sentiment was stamped onto a Basic White scalloped circle that was cut out using the Tasteful Labels Dies. It was stamped in Cajun Craze ink using the stamp set, Biggest Wish. I added adhesive to the upper part of the circle and adhered it to the lower bottom right corner of the small square. To complete the card I added three Holiday Rhinestones.
