Painted Patch Thankful Card For November

Happy November! Who knew November would finally get here? It seems like we went from summer straight into October and Halloween, and now it is already November! I feel like Thanksgiving is a week away. And some people online think Christmas begins the day after Halloween!! Really?! How tired of your Christmas decorations are you going to be by Christmas Day? Let’s slow down and enjoy the autumn in November before we rush into only thinking about Christmas.

For the first week in November, I wanted to start with a card that made us think of fall, and this Painted Patch Thankful Card For November does that, I believe. I love the Painted Patch Designer Series Paper! The colors and the pumpkins and gourds are fun to use when making fall cards and projects. I especially love this sheet with the dark Secret Sea background. It really makes the leaves, pumpkins, and gourds stand out!

The card base is Secret Sea, although you could use Basic Black or any of the colors in the paper. I added a layer of Golden Glow cardstock (one of the In Colors) cut at the usual 4″ x 5 1/4″. The designer series paper is then cut slightly smaller at 3 3/4″ x 5″. I wrapped around a piece of the Calypso Coral with Copper Border 3/8″ Ribbon and added a bow that I tied separately and adhered with Mini Glue Dots. I didn’t realize how beautiful this ribbon was until I used it! That copper sparkle along the edges is really nice.

For the greeting, I inked up just the word “Thankful” from the “Thankful For You” stamp in the Framed and Fabulous Stamp Set. I used Calypso Coral ink. Then I chose a die in the Flourish & Frames Hot Foil Dies set. Even if you don’t use it for hot foiling on this card, you can use the open dies to cut out labels and frames as you normally would with die-cutting. After cutting out the word “Thankful,” I thought it needed more, so I added a piece of Calypso Coral underneath. But I didn’t like just the rectangle shape so I fussy-cut around the die shape as best I could, and I liked that better. I popped up the greeting and added two little sequins I had handy from a Paper Pumpkin Kit, which I think match beautifully on the card.

Since the Secret Sea is such a dark color, you will need to add a Basic White or other light color of cardstock to the inside for stamping a greeting or writing a personal message. Add a few fussy-cut images from the paper in the corner for a surprise decoration inside the card.

Since I didn’t have a “Happy Thanksgiving” greeting to use, I thought partially inking up a stamp with Thankful on it worked just fine! If you are sending out Thanksgiving cards it’s time to make those cards and get them in the mail soosn! Use whatever greetings you have, there are lots in your stash that will work for the season of Thanksgiving!

Happy Halloween! Here’s a Treat!

Halloween Treat Holder

Happy Halloween today! Hope you are ready for a fun Halloween night, going out to a party, trick-or-treating, or passing out candy to the trick-or-treaters! I hope it is not rainy or too cold. Every kid deserves a fun Halloween night! It will be part of their childhood memories for the rest of their life!

If you need one last Halloween idea for an easy little candy holder for Halloween, try this one. You can change it up for other occasions as well and change the dimensions depending on what candy you have.

For this sample, I cut a piece of cardstock at 7 “x 2 1/2”. It is scored at 3/4″, 3-3/4″, and 4-1/4″. As I said, you might want to make it wider, longer, or have a wider space where the two score lines are at the top. Maybe you want it turned the other way so the part that folds over is at the top. Do whatever you like.

I just used a scrap of striped paper from the back of one of the monster faces on the Spooktacular 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. You can use whatever you have. My paper is cut at 2″x 2 3/4″. Stamp a pumpkin or cut one out of designer paper as I did from the Painted Patch Designer Series Paper. I had a Halloween stamp set from a Paper Pumpkin Kit nearby so I just used that for the greeting and to stamp the face on the pumpkin. There are so many fun things you can do with these! Here’s a very similar idea from a few years ago. You can also add a small strip of designer series paper to the bottom portion. Staple the candy inside and tuck in the top flap or use a few Mini Glue Dots, or punch holes and tie with ribbon. Just have fun!

Hope the Great Pumpkin brings you lots of Halloween candy!

Velvet Meadow Thinking of You Card

Velvet Meadow Thinking of You Card

Maybe you would like to see a card that isn’t Halloween, fall, or Christmas! This Velvet Meadow Thinking of You Card is very simple to make because of the paper’s pattern. I hadn’t used this Velvet Meadow Specialty Designer Series Paper in awhile, but when I came across it among my designer papers, I couldn’t resist the soft flocking! That gives the paper such a special touch! And you will want to touch it!

This card is made with the sheet of paper that can be cut into six sections because the floral pattern is at the top and the bottom of the paper. Therefore, you can cut the paper into 4″ strips and then cut from each end at 5 1/4″ length, omitting the extra “plain” section in the middle. You can use those six panels for six different cards!

I used Peaceful Pine cardstock for this card and made it a top fold just for fun. A side fold works fine too. The greeting is stamped in Peaceful Pine ink on Basic White cardstock. The greeting is in the Scalloped Blooms Stamp Set. It fits perfectly cut out with one of the Nested Essentials Dies. For the Peaaceful Pine layer underneath, I also used a larger Nested Essentials Die, but I trimmed it down just inside the pierced “stitching” around the edge. I didn’t want to take up any more space on the card.

For a little embellishment, I added a pink bow with the 1/8″ wide ribbon. I forget exactly which ribbon it is, but you can use what you have or some twine. There are also a few white Moody Palette Dots on the card front. These dots are great for mailing because they are almost flat. This paper is still available in the Stampin’ Up! Online Store so grab it while you can.

Here is another card I made by cutting out the flowers from the paper and popping them up over “the other side” of one of the papers.

Painted Patch Birthday Card For Fall

Painted Patch Birthday Card For Fall

If you need a birthday card for fall, just grab the pretty Painted Patch Designer Series Paper in the new Stampin’ Up! Catalog. I already had the pattern with the Cajun Craze background color picked out to make a card with. But I also kind of liked the paper with the pinkish colors, so I decided to make this card with the three panels of designer series paper. I’m not sure what that design is called!

The card base is Cajun Craze. It’s a color I don’t often use, but it’s great for the fall season! After playing around with other colors, I chose Petal PInk cardstock for a layer on top of the card base. But I adhered the designer papers to this piece to line them up before adhering that to the card base. The Petal Pink piece is 4″ x 5 1/4″.

I used two of the Cajun Craze DSP pieces on the right side and left side and the pinkish panel in the middle. It is mostly covered by the greeting. I cut these three pieces at 1 1/2″ wide and 3 3/4″ long. This allows for a space in between the DSP panels and around the margins. If you want the three panels to touch and not have the spaces between them, then you’ll have to adjust the measurements.

For the greeting, I used the birthday greeting in the Framed & Fabulous Stamp Set. It is stamped with Cajun Craze ink on Basic White. I used the Tile Garden Dies to cut out the greeting and the Cajun Craze layer underneath. I love these dies, all the sizes to layer, and the different borders on them!

I could have stopped at that point, but I thought it would be fun to cut out some leaves and acorns to add to the greeting from the designer series paper. They add a little extra color and interest without taking away from the color theme of the card. I also added a little double bow made with Linen Thread. I think our Linen Thread is one of the best basics to have in your “stash” of stamping supplies. It is so useful so many times, especially when you want just a little something extra without overdoing it.

On the inside of the card, I added a white layer for a stamped or written message with a strip of designer series paper at the bottom plus two more leaves in the corner. It just makes the inside of the card look a little interesting, too, like the outside!

If you are never not quite sure what card to make, just get out a pack of designer series paper and pull out all the sheets and see what appeals to you! Maybe just one sheet, maybe a couple! Just play and see what you come up with!

Painted Patch Pumpkins Hello Card

Leave a reply
Painted Patch Pumpkins Hello Card

Do you ever look through your packs of designer series paper and say, “Oh, I forgot I had this paper!” or “Oh, I haven’t used this one in a long time!” That’s how I came across this paper, so I made this Painted Patch Pumpkins Hello Card with the Painted Patch Designer Series Paper. I love this paper! It has so many interesting patterns in it, and although I have used it, I haven’t used it enough!

I didn’t go crazy thinking of a hundred different cards I could make with this and which paper I should use, etc. I just jumped in with the first patterns that caught my eye. The card base is one of the new In Colors, Golden Glow. I thought this pattern of the Painted Patch DSP with a Golden Glow background, with leaf shapes that are not filled in with color or design, looked nice for a background of pumpkins!

Although this paper is part of the Painted Patch Suite Collection, and the designer series paper and stamp set include dies that cut out certain pumpkins and other elements, I don’t own the dies, so I fussy-cut the pumpkins from one of the sheets of designer paper. I have the new Detail Scissors, which took the place of the scissors we have used for years. I just played around a little bit arranging the colorful pumpkins and thinking about a greeting until I had them positioned how I liked them. All but the pumpkin in the back are popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The greeting is stamped in Cajun Craze ink on a piece of Very Vanilla. This was diecut with one of the Sweet Words & Labels Dies. The sentiment is from the Simply Leaves Stamp Set. For a finishing touch, I added some Painted Patch Dots randomly around the card.

If you want to see another card made with the Painted Patch DSP, check out this one and this one.

Check out your supply of designer series papers and see what paper you have neglected for a while! I bet you will find something you will enjoy!

Scalloped Window Halloween Treat Box

Leave a reply
Scalloped Window Halloween Treat Box

Here’s a nice treat box to make for special trick-or-treaters: the Scalloped Window Halloween Treat Box. If you keep a package of these treat boxes in your stash, you will be ready to decorate one of them for any little gift or occasion. And there are many ways you can do it, from using designer series paper as I did to stamping, stenciling, or inking the box!

This is the Scalloped Window Box in the Stampin’ Up! September – December 2026 Catalog on page 75. They are 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″ x 1″. No adhesive is needed! The box comes flat for storage and has scored lines for you to crease and fold in. It all comes together very easily. You can use the Scalloped Bloom Dies if you want to cut out a shape to match the scalloped window.

For my Halloween treat box, I used the Frightfully Fun Designer Series Paper. I can’t say I know a trick for getting the scallop die lined up exactly right with the designer paper for the top of the box. You can measure precisely or just eyeball it, which is what I did. Start by placing the scallop die you want to use over the scallop of the box top so you can see which way it lines up the best with the scallops on the box. Cut the paper you are going to use to the size you want. I used a piece 3 1/4″ x 3 1/4″. Keeping the scallop die in the same position as you placed it on the top of the box, matching up the scallops, place it on the designer series paper or cardstock that you are using, centered as well as you can! Then, after you diecut that scalloped circle, place the paper on the top of the treat box and see how you did! Make sure the scallops line up or turn the paper around to see which position works best. If it is not centered very well, maybe you can trim the odd side to even it up. I used the scallop that matched the window the closest but you can use a smaller or larger die instead.

For the sides of the box, I used the same paper, cutting four pieces that are about 15/16″ wide (that’s a “smidge” less than one inch!) and 3 3/8″ long. I decorated the top of the box with some diecut bats and a ghost using the Oh My Fright Dies. The ghost has the eyes and mouth already cut out with the die, but I wanted black behind those openings so I used the smallest circle punch die I had and glued that small dot behind the ghost’s head. Or you can just use a tiny scrap of black to glue back there. I like the way he turned out! For a little greeting, I used the Soiree Salutations Stamp Set. I stamped the “Happy Halloween” on Basic White and layered it on a piece of Basic Black so it would stand out better. I almost put it across the window, but I really wanted it open as it is. The box holds three small candy bars, maybe more! So quite a nice trick-or-treat candy gift!

These boxes are really fun and easy to decorate for any occasion, gift, party favor, or treat! Try them!

12 Weeks of Christmas 2026 Banner

Is it really only 12 weeks until Christmas? It comes up pretty quickly and by surprise every year! Most of us are just getting serious about Halloween coming the end of the month, but we know once the Halloween decorations go up, Christmas is not far behind!

What is the 12 Weeks of Christmas special edition email? This is a special thank you gift I send to my email subscribers every year with exclusive ideas I won’t be posting anywhere else. First we start with holiday cards, then gift ideas, and finally gift bag and tag ideas for wrapping those gifts! The weeks fly by for sure!

Every Wednesday I will send out a 12 Weeks of Christmas email at 1:00 PM. Hopefully, it will be an inspiration (and reminder!) for creating your own projects for the holidays and getting a head start!

I have fun sending these emails and I think my customers enjoy receiving them and getting extra ideas that they can use for their holiday crafting. Tell your friends to sign up, too, if they like papercrafting! They might not even need to be stampers! All us crafters like to see new ideas! There are always alternatives if you aren’t a stamper. You might come up with a different project using paint or whatever your hobby is.

We’d love to have you join us if you would like! The first email goes out Wednesday, October 7, 2026! See you then!

Harvest Hues Ephemera Pumpkin Card

Leave a reply
Harvest Hues Ephemera Pumpkin Card

This Harvest Hues Ephemera Pumpkin Card is a fun one to make if you like playing with ephemera and stickers to make a card! And usually pretty easy, too, since there is often no stamping involved. This card was mostly made with the Harvest Hues Ephemera Pack. You will find all the new ephemera Mix & Match packs on page 69 in the current Stampin’ Up! catalog.  The pack is an assortment of autumn precut images and layering pieces. They have a backing so you can use them as stickers for Halloween, autumn flowers and foliage, pumpkins, and more. I couldn’t resist!

The card base is Mossy Meadow cardstock with a layer of Cajun Craze. The top layer is Basic White, cut at 3 3/4″ x 5″ since we have that extra Cajun Craze layer on the card base. I used the pumpkin grouping and the floral strip that I put near the bottom of the card. But before I adhered anything, I got the idea to do some splattering in the background just to make that white space a little more interesting. I used my Stampin’ Blends in Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie (or you could use Timid Tiger) to flick the brush end of the marker against the inside of the marker cap. Usually I am not very good at splattering, but this method worked well.

The pumpkins are popped up with Stampin’ Dimensionals so I didn’t remove the backing to make it into a sticker. However, the strip is adhered flat onto the card. Then I added a few of the leaves, acorns, and tiny mushrooms, even a little flower on the yellow pumpkin. The ephemera pack doesn’t come with greetings so I chose a greeting from my hot foiling stash of extras, made with the Sweetly Sentimental Hot Foil Dies. I love this set because of the sentiments and easy way to make a bunch in one fell swoop! Make extras and then you have some handy to use at a moment’s notice, like on this card!

I also added three Cajun Craze dots from the Painted Patch Dots for a little extra embellishment. You could change up this card lots of ways even if you were copying it! Use a different greeting, leave the background plain or add different colors of splatters or even blend in some clouds. Whatever you like! The ephemera packs are also good for easy scrapbooking. The Harvest Hues Ephemera Pack is due back in stock the week of October 19th but check back now and then and see if it arrives early. It’s always a good idea to fill out the notification form if you want to find out when something is back in stock. You’ll find those on any product that you click on that is out of stock at the moment. Hopefully, you already own this pack and don’t have to wait.

It’s time to make and send those Halloween and fall cards if you are making some!

Frightfully Fun Stack and Shuffle Halloween Cards

Frightfully Fun Stack & Shuffle Halloween Cards

Try this easy way to quickly and easily make three similar cards using the stack and shuffle method as I did with these Frightfully Fun Stack and Shuffle Halloween Cards! I’ve been seeing different versions of these cards and decided to try it and to make Halloween cards. How is it October 1st already today?!! It’s easy and fun!

Start by choosing three different designer series patterns, most likely in the same package of paper (although no reason you couldn’t use three coordinating papers of different packages). Cut one piece from each pattern at 4″ x 5 1/4″. The reason you cut this size is because it is the size if you were using the whole piece on the card base as a DSP layer. I used the Frightfully Fun Designer Series Paper. As you can see, I chose a piece of the ghost print paper, the striped paper, and the little stars paper. Stack the three papers together on one pile, each 4″ x 5 1/4″.

Next, make marks with a pencil on the right side of the card at 1″ and 4″ and at 2″ and 3″ on the left side of the pile. You don’t have to mark each paper, just the top one. Using your Paper Trimmer, cut on a diagonal from the 1″ mark on the right down to the 2″ mark on the left side of the paper. Then cut on the diagonal from the 4″ mark on the right to the 3″ mark on the left side. Keep each stack together at first.

Stack and Shuffle Cutting

Stack and Shuffle DSP Cuts

Above you see what the papers should look like, cut and still stacked.

Then just sort them out so each paper is in a different position on a different card.

Tape on Back of Sour Cream Container

I chose three different colors of card bases, but you could do all the same. I used Basic Gray, Basic Black, and Pumpkin Pie cardstock. Then just adhere the designer paper pieces to the card bases in the same order you have laid out already. There are no spaces in between the pieces. I just started at the top and then did the middle piece and bottom piece. That worked for me.

For the greeting, I used the “Boo to You” sentiment in the Oh My Fright Stamp Set. It is stamped in Memento ink on Very Vanilla cardstock and the cut out with one of the Stylish Shapes Dies, plus a larger Basic Black circle for the layer. I also stamped some stars and sparkles with a stamp in the same set in Pumpkin Pie ink on the greeting. I popped up the greeting with Stampin’ Dimensionals on two of the cards and adhered it flat on the third card. On one card, I added some Black 3/8″ Iridescent Ribbon under the greeting.

For a little more fun, I remembered I had the new embellishments, the Adhesive-Backed Bats Ghosts and Dots. I added a few ghosts on one card, a couple dots and a bat on another, and a ghost and two dots on another.

See the inside of the card below. I used a piece of Very Vanilla cardstock, stamped with a Pumpkin Pie greeting from the Oh My Fright Stamp Set, and a ghost!

Halloween Shuffle Card Inside

I’ve seen other “stack and shuffle” cards that used different size rectangles instead of the angled pieces I used, so you could do that if it seems easier to you. You could also eyeball the cutting lines if you don’t like to measure. They don’t have to be the measurements I used. Try it out! Use other designer papers or Christmas papers if you don’t need Halloween cards.
