Matching Patterned Papers + Stamps! Halloween Cards and Video with Jennifer Jackson

Matching Papers + Stamps!

Hello! Jen here today with a bunch of  Halloween cards that I created using our new Halloween Meows Paper Pad and Halloween Woofs Paper Pad. Did you know that each of these paper pads has patterns in them that coordinate with our stamp sets? That's what I'm going to show you today and there's a video at the end of this post too! 

For my first card today (shown above), I used the stamped image of the Frankenstein kitty from our Franken-Newton Stamp Set with a patterned paper that also features the Frankenstein kitties from our new Halloween Meows Paper Pad! Isn't that fun!? Then I paired it with the diagonal striped paper, also from the Halloween Meows Paper Pad to create a fun two panel patterned background. I cut the black postage edge rectangle using our Framework Die Set and then trimmed the two paper panels to fit inside. The top paper is 3 1/2" wide by 3" tall and the bottom paper is 3 1/2" wide by 1 1/2" tall. 

I also added two circles to hold the sentiment, die cutting them using our Circle Frames Die Set. I cut the kitty image out using the coordinating Franken-Newton Die Set and layered it over the circles and the paper with a bit of dimensional tape. That's it! A fun card that coordinates perfectly! 

I repeated the same card again, this time using the other Frankenstein kitty and his bride from the Franken-Newton Stamp Set:

Isn't it fun how the stamped images match up with the paper patterns?

I created a couple more cards using the same card layout but different stamps and paper patterns. This card duo uses the Newton's Costume Party Stamp Set along with the matching paper from the Halloween Meows Paper Pad:

This time I switched up the colors a bit and used different patterns on the bottoms but it's otherwise exactly the same! The sentiment is also from the Newton's Costume Party Stamp Set and I used the Newton's Costume Party Die Set to cut them out. 

Then I created a third set of cards, this time using the Dress-Up Doxies Stamp Set along with the Halloween Woofs Paper Pad:

Again, I used the same layout, just switched up the colors and paper patterns. The sentiment on this one is from the Happy Howl-oween Stamp Set (which also has a matching paper print in this paper pad), and I cut the images out using the coordinating Dress-Up Doxies Die Set.

Isn't it fun how you can use the mix and match our paper pads and stamp images for quick and easy cards!? There are so many more combos you could create! I hope you'll give this a try!

Here is a video I created showing you how to create these cards! Enjoy!
