Hello and Welcome!!!


Watch video tutorial here!!!
Let’s have some fun today and create a cute little Mini Halloween Twister Card! This interactive card is so much fun to create and to give! We will be using the Ai Mini Halloween Twister (5816) Set which includes several “twister” choices such as the little owl, a pumpkin, a ghost and a cat. This stamp set includes both the front and back of the images so that you can see them from both the inside and the outside of the card. The set also includes the dies necessary to create the “twister” mechanism and I will show you exactly how to do this in today’s video.
We will also be using the Ai Crooked Lamp & Signpost (5814) Set for the signage on the card. For the sentiments on the signs, we will use the Ai Journal Series Paper Pack (5849).
Now we will stamp, color and die cut the images, and to do the coloring we will be using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Yellow, Orange, Beige, Lt Brown, Mid Brown.
Let’s go ahead and create our spooky background for the front and inside of the card using the Ai Rectangle A2 Double Stitched Die (5063) Set, cutting the largest one for the front of the card and the second largest one for the inside of the card. To ink the backgrounds, we will be using the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Inks in Wilted Violet, Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot. Using a blending brush, we can apply these to the background to get a really spooky look! We can spatter these backgrounds with water, white ink and metallic watercolors for lots of interest.
Now we will stamp a couple of branches on the background, and one will be a place for our owl to sit. Let’s also die cut our wrought iron fence a couple of times, a few bats, the “spooky” sentiment, and the “Happy Halloween” sentiment from the Ai Halloween Journal Die (5604) Set.
We will also die cut a stitched hillside border from some patterned paper using the Ai Journal Series Paper Pack (5849). We can ink up the edges of this border for a bit of a shadow.
Now we can create the opening for the “twister”, and I will show you exactly how to do this in the video.
Finally, let’s do the assembly by gluing the front and back of the owl together and place it in the “twister” opening! Let’s also assemble all of the other images on the inside and outside of the card!
Now you can twist and spin until your heart is content!!!
I hope you are inspired to give this card design a try…it is really fun and easy to do! If you enjoyed this “twister” design, you may want to check out my other video using this technique, and I will link that below:
