The next few weeks our design team for Create with Connie and Mary will be taking a tour of the new July-December Mini Catalog! This week’s blog hop theme is our Favorite July-Dec Mini Catalog Designer Paper!
CUTE HALLOWEEN DSP
Again, it was hard to choose ONE designer paper to use, but I do LOVE all the colors and images in Stampin’ Up!’s new Cute Halloween Designer Paper Pack. I like that it has images you can cut or punch out!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Pumpkin Pie cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded. The front was embossed with the Bark Embossing Folder.
- A 3-3/4 x 5 piece of Basic Black was added to the front.
- The 2-1/4 x 5 piece of Cute Halloween “Boo” DSP was added towards the left side on the front.
- Next a 1/4 x 4-1/4 strip of Highland Heather cardstock was added under the 1 x 4-1/4 strip of polka dot Cute Halloween DSP then was added across the bottom front.
- A 2-1/2 scallop circle was cut with the Layering Circle Dies from Pumpkin Pie cardstock. A small dot was added to each of the scallops with a Black Stampin’ Write Marker.
- Trick or Treat from Cutest Halloween stamp set was stamped with Pumpkin Pie Ink on scrap Basic White and cut with a smaller 2-1/8 Layering Circle. It was added to the scallop circle, then popped up on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The ghost from the DSP was punched with the Halloween Punch and added to the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The candy corn from Cutest Halloween stamp set was stamped with Pumpkin Pie Ink on scrap Basic White and hand-cut, then added to the circle with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Two Matte Black Dots were added to the circle.
- Some Black Glittery Ribbon was tied in a bow, then added to the front with Mini Glue Dots.

I love your card, Connie! The stamps & DSP have the cutest images. Wish I could pin your card but there’s no pin button.
Thanks for sharing!
Hi Karen…Thanks! Glad you like my card! That DSP is SO fun! I just checked and I do get a little pin button when I hover on the photo. You don’t see that?
