My Pop & Twist Halloween Card

Halloween Card with a Signpost
My Pop & Twist Halloween Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Pop & Twist Halloween Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Paper Nest Dolls. I was honoured to have been asked to present my colouring and a project this past weekend for the Paper Nest Dolls’ Not So Spooky Magical Weekend! So, I created a tag for the event, but I had so much fun that I created a card using the stamps from the retreat and based it on my tag with a twist!

The Details of My Card

For my card, I decided to create a Pop & Twist card. I love how when you open the card, the stamps on the inside fold out and pop up!

My Card in Action

The front of the card was based on the tag that I presented with a few tweaks to fit the card size.

The inside was where all the magic happened as you open the card! When I saw these cute critters, I knew I wanted to create a twist and pop card!

I used very little decorations on the inside since I wanted the card to fold as flat as possible, but I couldn’t resist some glittery bats and Halloween words.
