Twiddler’s Nook Spooktacular

Happy 31st of the month everyone! Please hop on over to Instagram and join us for one of the final Spooktacular hops of 2024. We’ve got a super fun lineup of spooky inspiration for you just in time for the masses to really start fall crafting.

Today I’ve mixed Hello Bluebird cuties with some of my favorites from Mama Elephant for a sweet scene card that extends into the inside of my card too.

The images I chose today are from Hello Bluebird Spooky Spellers. They are adorable and can be dressed up and their signs customized too! I love how these features make this stamp set super versatile all year long!

For my background, I ink blended distress oxide ink from twisted citron to mowed lawn with an edge of black soot to darken things up. I added a spooky black grass border from Newton’s Nook along the bottom and a spooky tree and ghost from the Hello Bluebird Halloween Tree die set.

I stamped and heat embossed the beginning of my sentiment using the Mama Elephant Be Scary stamp and die set. I adhered it by hiding dabs of liquid glue behind the embossing powder.

Before finishing things up on the front, I went to the inside with the rest of my sentiment and also added some Mama Elephant Little Ghost Agenda cuties to liven things up a bit.

Back to the front, I added glossy accents to noses, the pumpkin face and accents on the bat and skunk. Then I added black glaze pen to all the critter eyes so they stood out a bit better too.

Finally, I glued a scattering of Twiddler’s Nook Pastel Wishes clay embellishments across the sky. I really like the combination of softer pastel elements and the dark black shadows on this card. The contrast is really cool!

Twiddler’s Nook Spooktacular IG Hop

Hey friends! It’s time for the next Twiddler’s Nook Spooktacular Instagram Hop! Today I have a fun card featuring a few great Twiddler’s Nook products but also a recent haul I purchased of Halloween goodies from Scrapbook.com.

I started by immediately cutting and building this ADORABLE little ghostie from the Spooky Bundle! This bundle comes with a stamp set, this ghost and sentiment dies, plus a paper pad packed full of cuteness! All of which I used today!

Next, I die cut a bunch of the “boo” sentiment and started playing with arrangements. I landed on this sort of flip-flop look and LOVE IT! After gluing everything down with liquid glue, I trimmed the excess off the edges.

Going through the paper pad, I chose this fabulous orange sky paper for my bottom border, trimmed a piece about 1 3/4″ wide and stamped my sentiment on the bottom right corner. Don’t forget to use your Twiddler’s Nook Pressure Pal to get great stamp images, especially for sentiments. No squishy fat spots here and there when you use it!

I lined the top of the orange panel with a strip of pink cardstock coordinating with the witch hat and popped my ghost up with foam squares.

For finsihing touches, I added glossy accents to the ghost’s eyes and stardust Stickles to the star on the hat. Then I scattered a sprinkling of Twiddler’s Nook Wishing on Rainbow Stars embellishments. I picked and chose the lighter colors in the mix by pouring some in a Twiddler’s Nook embellishment tray, which also made it super easy to pour them back in the bag when I was done.
