Today the 2017 Holiday Catalog goes live! I am so excited about this new catalog! There are some amazing new items, and I love how so many of them work together. For example, the Patterned Pumpkins Thinlits Dies work with the Pick a Pumpkin stamp set (available together in a bundle to save you 10%) as well as the Spooky Night Designer Series Paper (see the pumpkins in the lower left corner of the DSP pictured below.) The 4 pumpkin framelits in the set cut out the pumpkins in the paper! And the Cat Punch works with the Spooky Cat stamp set (also bundled) as well as the Spooky Night Designer Series Paper (see the cats second from the upper left corner of the DSP pictured below.)

Here’s what I made:

The piece of Spooky Night Designer Series Paper (DSP) I used for the background has 16 repeats of this 3″ x 3″ design, so you can cut them apart and make 16 cards or invitations out of just one sheet of DSP!

Here’s what I did:

Cut and scored with my Stampin’ Trimmer:

• Cajun Craze card stock (CS) cut to 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, then scored in half at 4-1/4″
• Basic Black CS cut to 3-1/4″ x 3-1/4″
• Spooky Night Designer Series Paper (DSP) cut to 3″ x 3″
• Very Vanilla CS cut to 4″ x 5-1/4″, for the inside

Stamped with the Graveyard Gate stamp set:

• sentiment in Basic Black ink onto a scrap of Very Vanilla CS

Stamped with the Spooky Cat stamp set:

• witch hat in Versamark ink onto a scrap of Basic Black CS, then heat embossed in Clear
• hat buckle in Versamark ink onto the hat, then heat embossed in silver

Die cut using the Patterned Pumpkin Thinlits:

• jack-o-lantern from a piece of DSP

Die cut using the Lots of Labels Framelits:

• sentiment
• larger size from a scrap of Pumpkin Pie CS
• strip using a much larger die to cut the ends of a 1″ strip of Basic Black CS

Cut using Paper Snips:

• witch hat

Assembled the card:

• 3″ x 3″ DSP glued onto the 3-1/4″ x 3-1/4″ piece of Basic Black CS
• jack-o-lantern glued onto the DSP
• witch hat glued onto the jack-o-lantern’s head
• this whole thing glued onto the front of the card base
• sentiment glued onto the Pumpkin Pie CS label
• Pumpkin Pie CS label glued onto the Basic Black CS strip
• this whole thing glued onto the front of the card base
• 2 copper sequins glued to the Basic Black CS strip
• 4″ x 5-1/4″ Very Vanilla CS glued to the inside of the card base
