Tim Holtz 2022 Halloween – Trick or Treat Colorize

Hello and Welcome!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

I’ve got a super spooky Halloween card for you today!!! We will be using the Tim Holtz Sizzix Thinlits – Trick or Treat – Colorize Die Set. This fantastic new die set is from the TH 2022 Halloween Collection. We will be using the creepy eyeball die to create our card!

To set the scene, we will be embossing the front panel using the TH 3D Texture Fades – Cobblestone #2 Embossing Folder. Next let’s die cut the beautiful TH Cathedral Window from the center of our front card panel. We can quickly ink these up the background and the window using the TH Black Soot Oxide Ink to give them an aged look.

For the background of our window we will be taking a piece of black cardstock and spraying it with the TH Mica Spray in Brushed Pewter. This will give the background an nice shimmer and add to the creep factor!!!

This die set is from the TH Colorize Collection and so to create the eyes there are several layers that we will need to die cut and assemble. Don’t worry…this is very simple to do! I’ll admit this was my first time with the colorized dies and I really concerned that I might not have the patience for it…but I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was put these together. The dies are clearly marked so that you know what color to die cut each of the pieces and where to place each of the layers. I’ll show you that up close in the video!

Now we can die cut some bats using the TH Gate Keeper Die Set and then we will add some Halloween Droplets to give them added dimension. At this point we can select some scary sentiments from the TH Sticker Sheets. So our card will say “A strange visitor…eyes fixed unwaveringly upon them…watching and waiting”, which is perfect for these spooky eyes in the window.

We can also add some TH Grit Paste – Crypt and a spider along the bottom of the window!

Tim Holtz Ghost Town Mixed Media Card – Coloring w/ Mica Sprays

Watch the video tutorial here!

Hello and Welcome!

In today’s video and card we will be creating a spooky mixed media Halloween scene! We will be using some brand new Halloween dies from the Tim Holtz collection! These will include the Ghost Town #2, Gate Keeper, and Regions Beyond Sets.

To do our coloring we will be using the fantastic Halloween Distress Mica Stains from Tim! These sprays have a beautiful mica shimmer which we will use to spray our background, color our haunted house, grave stones, and add dimension to the creepy gate!

To add even more creepiness and an aged effect to our gate we will add some Halloween Crypt Grit-Paste….so cool!!!! This paste would be great with a stencil as well.

We will add a fun metal Tim Holtz Word Band and add some Tim Holtz Distress Crayon in black to give it a more spooky look! And finally, we will add some twine and a few keys to secure the gate to our graveyard….sooooo scary!!!!
