Halloween lovers take note! This is your month! I have a fun and easy card to create to send to friends and family. The layout lends itself to a host of different stamp sets and patterned papers. This card uses Stampin’ Up!’s Pick of the Patch Bundle and the Them Bones 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper.
Pick of the Patch Halloween Card
Here are some basic instructions to get you started:
Gray Granite – 11” x 4 ¼” scored and folded at 5 1/2
Basic Black — 5 1/4 x 4
Them Bones 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper (two designs as pictured above) 2” x 4 ¾”
Instructions:
Emboss the piece of the 5 ¼” x 4” Basic Black cardstock with the Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. Add to Gray Granite card front.
Glue the two strips of DSP to card front, as shown above.
Die cut a piece of Pumpkin Pie cardstock with a circle with the third largest Stylish Shapes Dies.
Punch a piece of Gray Granite cardstock with the 2 3/8” Circle Punch. Emboss with Distressed Tile 3D Embossing Folder. Layer the circles.
Stamp the pumpkin with Pumpkin Pie ink and the stem with Old Olive ink. Punch with Pick of the Patch Builder Punch. Add the Happy Halloween sentiment with memento ink.
Add pumpkin to circles with dimensionals.
Place on card front in lower right-hand corner.
Add three black Adhesive-Backed gems to card.
Here’s another card created using this same layout. This one uses the Heartfelt Hexagon Bundle, a sneak peek from an upcoming Stampin’ Up! catalog.
This next card uses Stampin’ Up!’s Inked & Tiled stamp set and Inked Botanicals 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper.

Do you ever get card ideas in your head and they just have to come out? That describes me with today’s card. I thought it would be really fun to use Stampin’ Up!’s Trucking Along stamp set in conjunction with the Pick of the Patch Bundle. My vision saw a big pumpkin riding in the back of the truck. Isn’t it fun?
A quick note about the Trucking Along Bundle. The stamp set is available as an Online Exclusive (meaning you’ll find it on Stampin’ Up!’s online store). The Trucking Along Builder Punch is slated to be available October 9, 2023. But, from my video below, see how easy it is to cut the truck by hand.
