Frights & Delights

Halloween will be here soon! Time for a not-so-spooky card that is sure to delight the recipient. Lots of color & pattern on this one. This is a 5×7 card so there is a lot of real estate to display the patterned paper and big pumpkins/Jack O’Lantern.

A big congrats to Teri, the newest Featured Stamper FS1027! She has a fun little gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the bats/Halloween theme, the use of printed papers & most of the colors, but I used different papers, made mine a 5×7 & turned it horizontal.

For my card, the pumpkins were die cut out of 2 colors or orange & I used some brown & orange inks to add a little depth to them before gluing them together. To make them more Halloween-y, I added black die cut bats on top.They were layered, some popped up, on a white tall hex (turned sideways) cut background. I used a larger hex to cut the black plaid pumpkin paper behind it. The 5×7 stitched rectangle dies were used to die cut the orange plaid & plain orange paper. The largest of the 5×7 rectangles was used to cut the largest black plaid pumpkin paper for the final layer. I split a the greeting into 2 lines & used the mini sentiment strips for them & the orange backing layers.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Fall Thanks

Posted on October 9, 2026 10:07 PM by Julie Comment

Fall is the time to be thankful, to give thanks and don’t forget to say thank you to those in your life you really appreciate! Choose pretty paper and match your fall bouquet to the colors.

For the Inspiration Challenge IC1088, we are visiting Pacha Soap Co & their Pinterest Boards where I found THIS to use as my inspiration.

To make my thanks card, I die cut the large mason jar out of white & used a little blue ink to shade it. The fall bouquet dies were cut out of rich, jewel tone fall colors to go with the paper I chose for the background. I made a frame out of cobalt blue using a 5×7 rectangle & a 5×7 oval dies. A larger 5×7 stitched rectangle was used for the large cobalt blue & a slightly smaller one for the beautiful new paper from the Autumn Tapestry pad. The greeting was stamped & one of the layering pairs of the mini sentiment dies was used to cut it & its maroon backing layer. The Thanks part was die cut using white & maroon. Some of the frame & mason jar were popped up

Fall is here and I love making fall cards. This is a clean and simple (CAS) using only a few images and dies with just a bit of coloring. This would be perfect for Thanksgiving, thank you, or switch out the greeting and make it fall birthday card.

A big congrats to Helen, the newest Featured Stamper FS1026. She has a super little gallery & I chose THIS card to case I kept the colors & square frame, but I used different images, dies & made mine A2 instead of square.

For my fall card, I colored & die cut the pumpkin, leaves & wheat. I cut a lg rectangle for the front out of white linen & a smaller rectangle for the centerpiece. I backed the smaller one w/ a thin, dk brown layer before arranging my fall items on top. The greeting was die cut & it & the pumpkin are popped up a bit.

Here are the Copics I used:
