Halloween Spooky Cat on a Spooky Night from Stampin' Up!

  • Halloween Spooky Cat card
  • Free Holiday catalog download

Spooky Night Card 


I had quite a few swaps with other demos that I've been working on, so I'll have lots of new cards to show you using the Holiday catalog products over the next few weeks.  I'm still having so much fun with the Spooky Cat stamp set and coordinating Cat punch.  I know I'll be using this set long after Halloween.  Today I'm using the Spooky Cat stamp set with the coordinating  Spooky Night Designer Series Paper (DSP) to create a fun Halloween card that you'll enjoy sending to family and friends.       

  



The stamp set includes a cat, but I punched the cat out of one of the DSP using the new Cat punch.  You'll love the convenience of having a sheets full of perfect cats in Basic Black or Pumpkin Pie.  Or use your Cat Punch to  Punch cats in any color.  The Spooky Cat stamp set includes cat eyes and nose to finish any cat colors you decide to punch.


Spooky Night Designer Series Paper


The base card for my card is Basic Black cardstock, then a layer of Very Vanilla and another layer of Pumpkin Pie.  I ran the Pumpkin Pie layer through the Layered Leaves 3D Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  The tag is made from one of the Spooky Night DSP.   

For the Image Layer, I punch a circle using the Stitched Framelit die and I cut a hearth using the Hearth and Home Thinlit set.  I stamped a rat from the Spooky Nights set along with the Halloween sentiment from that set.  I always choose Basic Black Archival Stampin' Pad when I stamp black images.  The ink isn't as fast drying as our Classic pads, but the Archival Black pad gives solid coverage and clean details.  Note that the eye of the rat can be seen, unlike other inks that will bleed slightly.  I love our Black Archival ink pad and reinkers.



Rat and a Cat



The image block also includes three of the new Black Rhinestone Jewels from the new Holiday catalog that you'll want to get.  These new jewels will work wonderfully not only for your Halloween projects, but also compliment all of the new black and white designer series papers, and Basic Black and Old Olive Designer Series Papers in the new Holiday Catalog.   



Spooky Cat cards ready for swaps


Think of how much it would brighten some one's day if they were to receive this handmade card and the cute treat box from my previous post as a Halloween hello.   The Spooky Cat stamp set and Cat punch can be purchased as a bundle for a 10% savings.

Spooky Night Halloween Treat Box

  • Halloween Treat Box
  • August 27 Card Class open for registration

Spooky Night Box made with Gift Bag Punch 


Today I created a couple of treat boxes for Halloween using the Spooky Night Designer Series Paper and Basic Black cardstock.  These cute boxes are actually rather large and all one piece.  They hold a couple of the new treat tubes, or a small package of sweets and are perfect for the visiting trick or treaters.  I love that these are a single piece of cardstock, including the lid.  The lid simply flips up.     

  
The Cat punch from Stampin' Up! was used to create the cat silouette



The base box is Basic Black and covered with Spooky Night Designer Series Paper which becomes available in the Holiday catalog on September 1.  The striped banner paper is another pattern from Spooky Nights.  

I began with an 11-3/8" X 6-3/8" piece of Basic Black card stock.  Using the Simply Scored Scoring tool, score along the long side at 1-3/8, 3-3/8, 6-3/8 and 8-3/8.  Turn the Basic Black card stock and score on the short side at 1-3/8" and 5"




Switching to the Gift Bag Punch Board, along the long edge, line up the 1-3/8" score line with the score guide on the punch and punch. Move to the next score line (3-3/8") and align with the score guide and punch.  Move to the third score line (6-3/8) and punch.  Line up the longest edge with the punch guide and punch again, giving all edges rounded corners.

Now, flip the Basic Black piece over and beginning again with the 1-3/8" edge, align with the punch guide with the score line and punch on the four score lines again -- 1/3/8", 3-3/8", 6-3/8" and 8-3/8".  Line up the outer edge as well, and punch causing rounded corners on all edges.

The dimensions for the designer series pieces:
  3-1/4" x 2-3/4" - for front of box
  3-1/4" X 1-3/4" - for top of box
Watch the direction of your prints or stripes
Use Fast Fuse to hold your box together.

The banner-tag:
  Very Vanilla - 2 X 5".  
  Stripe from Spooky Night - 1-3/4" X 4-7/8"
   

Use Fast Fuse to adhere the banner - tag.  Only glue it to the box cover so it flips up when the box cover flips up.  I tied a double bow with the Shimmer Ribbon in 3/8" Basic Black and then glued the ends of the ribbon under the lid.




3/8" Black Shimmer RIbbon Bow added to top of box


Add a Basic Black cat punched with the Cat Punch.  Add the cat with two dimensionals attached to the tag -- not the base of the box -- so the cat also flips up when the cover is removed.   The box is fairly busy so I didn't add a sentiment, but you could easily add the Treat or Treat sentiment from he Spooky Night stamp set. 

Be sure to add the Cat Punch to your first order from the Holiday catalog, as its sure to be very popular.  The cat punch and the coordinating Spooky Cat stamp set will be available as a bundle saving you 10% when purchased together. Add a package of the Spooky Night Designer Series papers so you'll be set for Halloween projects.

Recipe for card:

Stamps:  None
Ink:  None
Paper:  Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Spooky Night Designer Series Paper 
Accessories: 3/8" 'Basic Black Shimmer Ribbon, Fast Fuse, Simply Scored Scoring Tool, Gift Bag Punch Board, Paper Snips, Bone Folder, Stampin' Trimmer, Dimensionals,
