The Sizzix / Tim Holtz release for Halloween is an absolutely wonderful release.
For this make I used several of the dies.
I wanted to make a tag, started with the background, decided that I wanted a window in it, with a moon… Than I thought what if the moon lights up…So, as Tim Holtz always says, tiny lights for the win. A tag turned into something more…
For the tag and the box behind the tag I used thick chipboard. It makes it strong enough to stand up.
The background was made with a piece of watercolor cardstock, a 3D embossing folder and ink. I think the stone wall turned out great, thanks to Zoe Hillman’s tutorial. You can find the tutorial here.
For the torn wallpaper I used one of the papers from Idea-ology Backdrops.
The sky is made with ink on vellum. I used the new moon mask from Tim Holtz to create the moon.
For the window I used woodgrain paper and some Distress spray stains.
For The Count, candles, pumpkin, cat, bats, spiders and ivy I used different kind of cardstocks. I listed everything below, I’m only nit sure I remembered everything. I was having so much fun, that I didn’t write everything down.
I used the dies to cut the pieces out of white cardstock. I left the pieces in the paper. Then I colored the pieces with distress inks.
For the ground I used a mixture of Deco-art Media Texture Sand paste with mini art stones from Finnabair and Distress paint Ground Espresso and Black Soot.
