Today’s Halloween card combines the adorable patterns from Stampin’ Up! Howlstooth and Scaringbone Designer Series Paper (one of My Top 10 Favorites from the Holiday Catalog) and a new Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge (MOJO254).
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- EEEEEK! That handsome little spider from Tricky Treats stamp set was heat embossed in black for a delicious shine! Googly eyes (Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog, p. 27) add a wiggly, 3-D pop!
- The spider’s hat was heat embossed separately in Tangerine Tango Stampin’ Emboss Powder. I clipped it with my Paper Snips and pieced it in place. He looks so dapper!
- The flagged end was created in a flash using a 1 3/8″ Square Punch. Watch my previously posted video to learn how.
- A bold, coordinating polka dot pattern (Howlstooth and Scaringbone) was added to the Very Vanilla envelope flap.
ARE YOU READY TO HOP? The Stampin’ Pretty Pals are prepared to strut their stuff on tomorrow’s Pals Holiday Hop. New stamps, paper and more from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog will be the focus!

Super cute Mary!
Hi Kadie: I really like working with the Stampin’ Up! 1/4″ Stitched Grosgrain. It’s easier to tie than our previous grosgrain . . . less futzing makes me a happy stamper! Thanks to all for your kind comments! Hugs, Mary
Cute! I always look forward to you daily creations Mary!
LOVE everything about this card Mary. I have to admit that I haven’t purchased the Basic Gray 1/4″ Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon YET. It is now on my “MUST GET LIST”. Thanks for sharing girlfriend!
Just love these papers matted with Tangerine Tango, Black & Gray!
