Welcome to Team Stamp It’s monthly blog hop! Thanks for taking the time to join us. Today, we share Halloween- and fall-themed, handmade greetings cards and paper crafting projects.

My card features a host of products and a fun technique, most importantly the rubbing alcohol and Stampin’ Blends technique. I love the results this technique produces. See this additional blog post for other examples of this.
Rubbing Alcohol and Stampin’ Blends Technique
Here are some basic directions to achieve this cool background.
Scribble or color with your choice of Stampin’ Blends on a piece of Stampin’ Up!’s vellum.
Pour some 91 percent Isopropyl Alcohol into a small container.
Dip a paint brush into the alcohol and drip and/or touch the liquid to the colored markings.
Watch it do its magic or use a straw or your breath to move the colors around.
Let it dry.
Once the vellum is dry, I adhere a piece of Stampin’ Up!’s Adhesive Sheets to the back of the vellum.
I remove the adhesive backing and attach it to a piece of card stock. The example above shows Basic White.
For today’s card, I die cut the piece with a layer from the Stitched Rectangle Dies.
Use the piece any way you like!

I also used a few other products to complete this design:
Here’s a quick video to help you understand the process.

I chose this stamp set because of its versatility. It includes sentiments for everything from Halloween, to fall, to Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Valentine’s Day.
Banner Year Halloween Card
First up is the Halloween card. It also uses Stampin’ Up!’s Magic in This Might Designer Series Paper and the Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder.
Banner Year Fall Card
Here’s the fall card. In addition to the Banner Year stamp set, I paired it with the Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper. (I must tell you. This paper is gorgeous. I hated to use it!)
Banner Year Holiday Card
And, here’s the holiday card. I added the Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper and the 3/8-inch Red Ribbon.

Instructions:
Fold the Cajun Craze card stock in half.
Using adhesive of choice, adhere the 3 ½” x 5 ½” inch piece of Magic in This Night DSP to the Cajun Craze base.
Attach the 4 ¼” x 1” piece of DSP to the 4 ¼” x 1 ¼” Basic Black piece.
Place a Glue Dot on each end of the 5” inch piece of Glittered Organdy Ribbon. Stretch the ribbon across the front of the DSP/black piece, sticking the Glue Dots to the back of it.
With adhesive, adhere this entire piece to the card front, about halfway down.
Create a “faux” box with the 3” Glittered Organdy Ribbon. (Slip the piece underneath the ribbon already attached to the card stock. Tie a knot.)
Die cut the white scrap with a circle from the Stitched Shapes and the Cajun Craze with a scallop circle.
Stamp the spider web image with Cajun Craze ink onto the white circle three times, stamping off once for each web. Use Memento Black ink to stamp the “Happy Haunting” sentiment in the middle of the white circle and on top of the webs.
Place the white circle on top of the Cajun Craze scallop with Glue Dots. With Dimensionals, pop this circle up on top of the ribbon on the left-hand side of the card.
Stamp the word “Boo” in Black Memento on the 5 ¼” x 4” Whisper White. Attach to the inside of the card.
