It's a Stampin' Up! Fall Fest Halloween Card

The Stampin’ Up! Fall Fest Stamp Set from the 2 014 Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog is perfect for adorable handmade Halloween greeting cards. What makes the Fall Fest Stamp Set extra special is you have a choice. You have three pumpkins of different sized that you can use as is or add the faces for too cute jack-o-lanterns. That choice with this stamp set will take you from Halloween into Thanksgiving. It’s sure nice to have a stamp set that doesn’t lock you into just one holiday or season.

Not for just one holiday or season is true of a couple more Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog Stamp Sets. The first to come to mind is the Holiday Home Stamp Set I borrowed the “Happy Halloween” greeting from to use as a label for my file folder. I don’t know about you, but I’d rather be let loose in an office supply store than a candy store any day. Candy is good, office supplies is the best.

How in the world did I make the file folder? It was easy with the File Tab Edgelits Die in my Big Shot Die-Cutting Machine from the 2014-2015 Stampin’ Up! Catalog. A must-have for office supply store junkies. I am far from alone. 🙂

Before going off about my office supply fix my handmade Halloween card gave me, I was sharing with you multi-season/holiday stamp sets from the 2014 Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog. The second one that comes to mind immediately is the White Christmas Stamp Set. Holiday Home, sure. But, White Christmas? Absolutely! I made a pretty fall card with it the last week or so. Tomorrow I’ll be sharing another fall card idea.

Both of the background papers are from the Stampin’ Up! Motley Monsters Designer Series Paper, also from the Holiday Catalog. There are some fun patterns. The favorite among my customers seems to be the candy corn. It’s good enough to eat. Sugar free and full of fiber. 🙂 Although, I recommend you use it for cardmaking or as a Halloween treat for other cardmaking junkies.

My handmade Fall Fest card is pretty easy to make. It’s easy when you have the proper tools. The coordinating Fun Fall Framelits are a must unless you like cutting out pumpkins by hand. Did you know when you purchase the Fall Fest Stamp Set and Fall Fun Framelits in the Fall Fest Bundle you’ll save 15%?! The savings will leave some cash for candy corn that is full of sugar.
