I made the following Halloween cards with Tim Holtz patterned paper and ephemera. I had fun creating unique and unusual collage cards with the outstanding paper and die cuts that were available from Tim Holtz. I purchased all of these supplies from Michaels. Here are the supplies I used to create these cards: Patterned Paper Tim Holtz Idea-ology Halloween Paper Stash Die Cuts Tim Holtz Idea-ology Halloween Ephemera Pack Tim Holtz Idea-ology Paper Dolls Tim Holtz Idea-ology Botanical Sentiments Tim Holtz Idea-ology Occasions Small Talk Tim Holtz Idea-ology Clippings Stickers Stamps Tim Holtz Idea-ology Halloween Cling Stamps
Here is a video that I made featuring some of the Halloween cards I made.

Isn't this young Victorian girl precious? I love the sullen look on her face. She definitely looks well taken care of! This is how I made the card: I started with a blank kraft greeting card that measures 5" by 7". The background paper is from the Ki Vintage Charm Paper Pad by Hampton Art. I used the digital image "Spoiled" from Mo's Digital Pencil. I printed the image on white cardstock and colored it with Copic sketch markers. This was my first attempt at coloring a girl with "big hair". I distressed the edges of the cardstock with Tattered Rose and Tea Dye Distress Ink. I cut a slit in the fold of the card and wrapped a piece of vintage lace around the front of the card. I used glue dots to apply the colored image to the front of the card. I printed out the sentiment on kraft cardstock and attached it to the lower edge of the card (I'm not spoiled. just well taken care of.) I finished the card by embellishing it with two gold stars in the upper corner. I will enter this card in Mo's Challenge #248. Thank you for taking a look at my card.

This is how I made the card: (1.) I started with a blank white card that measures 5 1/2" by 8 1/2". (2.) I took the page "Love Lifted Me" from an old hymnal. I attached the page to the card and then used Smooch Spritz to distress the card. I stamped some scrolls around the edges with black ink. (3.) I chose the digital stamp "John Praying" from Mo's Digital Pencil. I colored the image with Prismacolor pencils and Copic Sketch markers. (4.) I die cut the colored image and a black frame for the image. (5.) I embellished the card with an embossed angel image, a piece of old lace, rhinestones (Bling on a Roll from Recollections) and a pretty cloth flower and leaves (Tulle Flora & Fauna from K & Company).

This morning I went my Animoto account and discovered a new video template called "Rustic". I love everything country, rustic and vintage. This template is just what I have been waiting for to feature photos of my rustic treasures.

Happy Halloween! I would like to share an easy way to make a fantastic video slideshow with your Halloween photos.
Animoto has a brand new style in HD called Vintage Voyage. Vintage Voyage uses maps, clocks, vines, compasses and picture frames in the background. This style provides a lovely retro/vintage look that is great for displaying family pictures and vintage/antique images.
Last week, Animoto rolled out some new Halloween genre music that rocks! These Halloween selections will really make your slideshows POP!!!
I made this "Halloween Party" video to feature some treasured pictures of my granddaughter in her Halloween costume. I found some public domain Halloween postcard images to complement the vintage feeling that is conveyed in the Vintage Voyage style. The "Halloween Party" music is just perfect for this video.
Animoto makes it easy to design a video slideshow. You can make a FREE 30 second slideshow to see if this service is for you. Your slideshow can be posted on YouTube, Facebook or any other video sharing site.
