Now that the children are all back in school, we know it is time to start thinking about the upcoming holidays.  I always find that once I get past September the fall season is just a blur all the way into Christmas.  School activities get into full-swing, there are craft shows to go see, some fall birthdays thrown in and before you know it  Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas all come in close succession.

Ever since I ordered the Stampin’ Up!® Creepy Crawly Designer Paper  I have been in the mood to stamp some Halloween projects!   This week on Splitcoaststampers the tutorial was about making Criss-Cross cards.  I decided to try it and this is what I came up with using several different stamp sets plus the new Creepy Crawly DS Paper.  For the pumpkin, I used the new Year After Year set and colored it in with my Aquapainter and Stampin’ Write Markers.  On the inside card, I used Party Punch and  Booglie Eyes .  I just love the Booglie Eyes set!  And of course to make the little tab at the top, I used the Round Tab Punch.
