Art Impressions Mini Slimline Halloween Card w/ Glimmer Paste

Hello Ai Fans!!!

In todays video and card we will be creating this spooky mini slimline Halloween card using the images from the Ai Halloween Critters Set (5352)! I thought it would be fun to create a top folding mini slimline card today and I will give you all of the measurements and some tips for creating this design as well.

To set the scene for our adorable little trick-or-treaters we will create a beautiful sparkly purple spider web by using a stencil and some glimmer paste!!!

To add more dimension and sparkle we will add some “purple people eater” sequins to the spider web. We will also add some shimmer to the rolling grassy hills with some beautiful mica spray!
