Raise your hand if you’re a collector of Designer Series Papers. Count me in, too! I love all of Stampin’ Up!’s papers, including it’s double-sided patterned designs. Not only do I love collecting the paper, but I love using it, as well.
For today’s card, I’m sharing a simple Designer Series Paper (DSP, for short) technique that works really well with the “scenery” designs.
Here are some measurements and information to help you get started:
Wild Wheat card stock base measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored and folded at 4 1/4
A 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 piece of your choice of Designer Series Paper. I used the Splendid Autumn 6 x 6 DSP for this first card.
Cut the DSP in strips at 1 1/4, 1, 3/4, and 1/2
Space these pieces out and attach to a piece of Cajun Craze card stock measuring 4 1/2 x 3
Pop this up on card front
Stamp sentiment with Cajun Craze ink on a piece of Crushed Curry card stock measuring 4 3/4 x 1/2. Find the congrats sentiment comes in the Sweetly Scripted stamp set, one of Stampin’ Up!’s Online Exclusives.
Pop up the sentiment on card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Add gems!
Here’s another card using this cutting technique with Stampin’ Up!’s Thoughtful Journey 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper.

When I hold my monthly in person stamping classes in my home in Mesa, Arizona, I love to give each stamper a fun treat packet.
This month, I created these cute little Boo! treat packets as my gift to them. I used the Alphabet A’ La Mode Dies. The dies let you spell any sentiment you want. And, once upon a time, Stampin’ Up! sold the clear boxes that measure about 3 1/4 x 3 1/4. I found some extras in my stash and decided to create something fun for Halloween. And, I filled them with Reese’s Peanut Butter ghosts!
These DIY treat boxes are perfect for those special trick or treaters, kids, nieces, nephews, and grandkids, too!
If you don’t have access to these clear boxes, the current Scalloped Gift Card Boxes would work, as well.
Alphabet A’ La Mode for Halloween Treat Box
Here are a few details and measurements to help you get started:
Alphabet A’ La Mode Dies with Granny Apply Green, Pumpkin Pie, and Gorgeous Grape card stock. Tip: Apply Adhesive Sheets to the back of the card stock before die cutting. I die cut all the pieces and then mixed and matched the letters.
Basic Black card stock die cut with circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies.
Black & Very Vanilla 3/8″ Large Check Ribbon colored with Stampin’ Blends. I used both Gorgeous Grape and Pumpkin Pie.
Gems: The Gorgeous Grape gems from the Glossy Dots Assortment work, as do the Granny Apple Green gems from the Iridescent Adhesive-Backed Discs.
I hope you enjoy these cute little Halloween treat boxes. I know my stampers appreciated them this month.

Baby Wipe Technique
Layer two baby wipes on top of each other. Be sure to protect your work surface as the ink will bleed. I used my Glass Mat.
Drip drops of reinkers onto baby wipes. I used Wild Wheat, Early Espresso, Pretty Peacock, and Cajun Craze.
Cover the area. It has to be large to accommodate the large background stamp.
Dip the stamp in the baby wipe and then stamp on the Very Vanilla card stock.
