Hello Crafty Friends and welcome! My card for you today uses Karen Burniston's Twist Panel Pop-Up along with several of her fantastic Halloween themed dies!
I was never much into making Halloween cards, but last year, I really got into making them and now I have to admit, they're my favorite!!! The colors, the fun, the spooky characters!!
For this card, I wanted to make something using the Twist Panel Pop-Up. I started with an A2 sized card base using a light weight black cardstock. Then I found this fun Halloween themed patterned paper in my stash and used it for the background. I really liked the colors in the paper, so I created a blue cloud background for the card using MFT - Mini Clouds Stencil and Simon Says Stamps Pawsitively Saturated Ink in Seafoam, Surf and Ocean.
I then die cut the mechanism pieces from the same light weight black cardstock as the card base. I die cut all the characters to add to my twist panel using Karen Burniston's Witch and Cauldron, Skeleton and Bat, Halloween Elements and Halloween Charms.
I then used Border Blends - Trims to create the fun spiral border in orange and purple cardstock. I added two pieces of black cardstock to add a sentiment and a place to sign the card. I die cut the white rectangle using the scalloped border in the Twist Panel Pop-Up. Then I added two pumpkins from the Autumn Elements die using heavy weight smooth white cardstock and colored them in with Copic markers.
For the front of the card, I cut a rectangle from smooth white cardstock just big enough to fit the Slim Pattern Plate - Spiders die. I created the cloud background the same way I did for the inside.I die cut the spider pattern from a glitter cardstock and then glued it down to the cloud background.
I added a piece of orange cardstock that was just a 1/8in larger on both sides to create a border along the sides. Then I added that to the front panel of the card.
I used Distress Oxide Ink in Carved Pumpkin and Candied Apple on smooth white cardstock, then I die cut the Happy Halloween sentiment from the Happy Halloween die set. I cut a glitter purple cardstock background for the sentiment.
How cool is this Halloween card! I just love the background and all the fun characters on the inside. Thank you so much for stopping by today and Happy Crafting!
