Papertrey Pumpkin and Scrap Patterned Paper

 

I received this Papertrey Pumpkin Slices dieset last year as a prize from Scrapbookcom. I finally pulled it out to use it with my never ending scraps of paper. I really like the way it came out. I cut 3 layers for the center slice (the orange ghost print) so it would give it some dimension. The 2 slices on either side of the center piece are cut and layered 2x, all the rest just once. 

The pumpkin die is 1 piece that cuts all the slices out, so I had to position the paper the way I wanted the design to show for each slice. The die doesn't have an outer edge so it doesn't cut the entire pumpkin out, but does leave the outline between the slices. I took a pencil and traced around the edge of the pumpkin and hand cut it. It was easy.

It doesn't cut out the pumpkin shape, just the slices.


I placed the die back into the paper and traced the outer edge.

I used a scissors and cut it out. Then I placed the patterned paper slices inside.

The background is black mixed media cardstock, I covered it with Crown Me Astro Paste, using a blending foam tool to apply it. Astro Paste has a metallic shine and bits of glitter in it. I love the mystical look it gives off.

The leaves aren't included in the set, I used some that I had on hand from another set. The sentiment is from a Scrapbookcom stamp and dieset, I'll link it below. Here's another card I made using this set:

Spellbinders October 2026 Embossing Folder of the Month

 

Today I'm sharing a card I made using the Spellbinders October 2026 Embossing Folder of the Month. I love the party like pattern on this folder! I used it vertically but many people are using it horizontally and making it the sweater pattern with the Stitching Die of the Month. I made a card yesterday using the Stitching Die of the Month:

You can see I used a different embossing folder that looks like a knit stitch. The Stitching Die of the Month is a play on the holiday ugly sweater. The teeth are from the old song, "All I Want for Christmas are My Two Front Teeth."

You can learn more about the Spellbinders Clubs and the benefits of membership by clicking HERE. Remember, you can join for one month and cancel anytime after that and still receive the discounted price! New memberships are available from the 6th-27th of the month, or as long as supplies last.

I saw on social media people are using it to send to their dentists or hygenists. Do you send cards to your dentist? I send mine money. LOL. I did once send a card to my hygenist because we talked about the cards I make.

Anyway, back to the card. I used plain white cardstock with the folder since I made a rainbow of birds from the Small Die of the Month. I attached a piece of string to the card and cut the birds from scraps of cardstock. I used foam dots to pop them off the card. Extra cute. 

Here's the card I made using the entire Small Die of the Month:

The sentiment is from a Tim Holtz stamp set called Tiny Text. Probably one of my all time favorite sentiment stamps.

That's it for today!
