Paper Pumpkin Halloween Card & Tag

Paper Pumpkin Halloween Card & Tag

I still have pieces from my September Paper Pumpkin Kit so I used stamps and pieces to make this Paper Pumpkin Halloween Card & Tag. I actually started with the tag because I have this Halloween sweater tree I bought from someone on Instagram and I thought it would be fun to hang a tag on it for Halloween.

And after I made the tag, I thought I should copy myself and make a Halloween card as long as I had extra pieces I had die cut and everything still out on the table!

I used a lot of varied things! To start with, I used the Stitched So Sweetly Dies for the Pumpkin Pie and Basic Black pieces to make the tag and then the focal point on the card. The pumpkin on the tag is stamped with the stamp set in the Paper Pumpkin Kit and then colored with Stampin’ Blends. The greeting is from the Paper Pumpkin stamp set also and stamped on Granny Apple Green, then die cut with a die in the Tasteful Labels Dies. For some tiny little stems of leaves in various colors, I used the dies in the Forever Flourishing Dies. And I found some tiny little flowers in the Budding Blooms Dies. Sometimes you should just look through all your dies and see what you can use! It doesn’t always have to be in a coordinating set. I added a Gilded Gem on top of each flower on the tag. The ribbon on the tag is the beautiful Black 3/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon.

The Halloween card is very similar. The card base is Cajun Craze with a layer of Pumpkin Pie. To get the wood background, I used a pattern in the In Good Taste Designer Series Paper. This large pack of designer paper is on sale in the Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper Sale until October 31 so don’t miss it! Instead of the stamped pumpkin, I used one of the pumpkin diecuts in the September Paper Pumpkin Kit, as well as a couple swirly vines plus some colored stems I already die-cut like on the tag. For a couple of embellishments I used two of the Gold Glitter Enamel Dots and tied a bow with the Black Glittered Ribbon.

Here is a photo of what I did with the tag! I bought this sweater tree from @thelittlegreenbean on Instagram, also the two little embroidered mushrooms on the right. After Halloween, I could make a fall or Thanksgiving tag to hang on the tree. (If you recognize the Witches Candy Shoppe sign in the background, that was some designer paper from several years ago that was perfect for framing for home decor!
