Sizzix Tim Holtz Costume Halloween Cards

 Happy Saturday, crafty friends, and thanks so much for stopping by! It’s now September and this is the time of year when my crafty ideas think of fall and Halloween. Today I wanted to share some of my Halloween cards made with Sizzix Tim Holtz Costume and Sizzix Tim Holtz Mischievous die sets along with the Simple Stories Elements October 31st patterned paper and Simple Stories Vintage October 31st stickers. 

Can you even resist these cute little adorable little monsters? If you’re not familiar with Colorize, it’s basically layers of dies that you build up following the color code stamped on the back of each die. I used a combination of cardstock to build my monsters, and I love how the mix of surfaces adds contrasting visual texture to the finished design. And for even more fun, I added the Sizzix Tim Holtz Mischeaveous featuring eight curious cats that are perfect for adding spooky kitties to your Halloween cards.  The set comes with 16 dies of eight cats and eight coordinating heads to make those kitties pop! 

Sizzix has tutorials on putting these monsters together which I watched and followed. Just google it and the tutorial for each monster will show up on your computer.  My first attempted for each monster assembly was a learning experience and had to do it twice to get it right.  I would highly recommend to NOT do all of the cutting at once in the beginning since those little pieces get easily lost.  Therefore, cut one die and glue to base before continuing to the next die that will be cut with a different colored cardstock.  At first, you will refer to the tutorials and the color guideline to get you through the first assembly as well as the picture on the front of the die packet of the monsters.
