Sometimes the cutest cards come together quickly—and this one might just be my favorite of the season! I couldn’t resist Spellbinders’ new Pupkin die set, which features an adorable dog all dressed up as a jack-o’-lantern and carrying a tiny skull-shaped trick-or-treat bucket. Cuteness overload!
This card is extra special because I made it for my daughter in memory of her sweet, goofy lab, Tank, who once rocked his very own pumpkin costume. ❤️
I layered several color coordinating mats from past Small Die of the Month and Large Die of the Month kits and I used ColorWheel cardstock and Sand for my pup’s body. The vibrant layers really make our little Pupkin pop! This design is fast, fun, and easy to assemble—perfect for Halloween cardmaking sessions.



Karen, this pupkin Halloween card is adorable! I found all the supplies I need except whatever you used for the orange layer – is that a big die or a border die? Do you happen to know the name of it? Thanks for your help. Terri

So glad you liked my Pupkin! The orange layer was die cut with a die from one of my 2022 Club Kits that has since sold out. You could subsitute with a die from an Infinity die set. My May 27, 2025 blog posts shows two of my favorite dies to add background interest. Link: https://kennyscards.com/2025/05/27/how-to-create-mixed-media-backgrounds-for-your-cards/
Good luck!
