Halloween is just around the corner – I have shared a project with the solid hat and a project with the dotted hat in the Bewitching stamp set, but I’ve yet to play with the hat with a spider’s web on it. That changed last night as I sat down to make a sweet Halloween card. Out came the spider web-emblazoned hat and a couple of other fun products – here’s the card I made:
I love a stamp/punch bundle – dies are great, but I love my punches. The hat in this Witch Hat Builder Punch is such fun – while you can create fun hats with the punch and no stamps, there are three hat images in the coordinating stamp set. Love that! Here’s a look at the Bewitching Bundle, which includes the Bewitching cling stamp set and coordinating Witch Hat Builder Punch:
When Stampin’ Up! added some additional Sale-a-Bration options to the earnings lineup earlier this month, they added the Dots & Spots Die, which is a stand-alone die (not specifically designed for a stamp set) in Stampin’ Up!’s 2022 Annual Catalog. I cropped the dots from a scrap piece of Pumpkin Pie cardstock and then cropped it with the largest circle in the Layering Circles Dies. I glued that to a Gorgeous Grape piece cropped with the same circle for a fun focal point on my card. Here’s a closer look:
There are two ways to add the Dots & Spots Die to your Stampin’ Up! order – you can purchase the Dots & Spots Die for $32 with code #159164, or you can earn the Dots & Spots Die for free as your Sale-a-Bration selection with a $100 order with code #163098. Here’s a look at this super-fun die:
I wanted my witch’s hat to be black and the spider’s web to be white – best way to achieve that was to hear-emboss the hat with white Stampin’ Emboss Powder on Basic Black cardstock. I heat-embossed the hat again on Gorgeous Grape cardstock and snipped out the hat band. So easy! Here’s a closer look at the spooky hat:
Behind my heat-embossed hat and polka-dotted backdrop, I layered a piece of striped paper from the Black & White Designer Series Paper. Here’s a look at the super-fun patterns and colors in this pack of papers:
I love this mix of bright, regal and neutral colors for Halloween. If you like this combination of Pumpkin Pie, Gorgeous Grape and Basic Black, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:

Wouldn’t this hate make a cute tag topper for a Halloween goodie or treat bag? I think it’s such fun!

Hauntingly charming mix of dots and stripes.
Oh Brian, this card is too cute! So smart to emboss the hat in two colors to add the band, I would have never thought to do that. It was fun to get the dotted die free and check it off my wishlist.
Such a fun Set…cute as can be!
I love the stripes with the dots and the Grape color! Awesome card!
Love this fun card, Brian. The mix of stripes and dots with the great color combination makes a very fun Halloween card for all ages. Enjoy your day!
What a fun card today! Love the color combinations, and love the pieces you put together too. That dotted die looks really fun. It would be so versatile. Thanks for the inspiration.
So cute ! Love this hat ! Great idea using the Dots and Spots die !
I think i need that one !
