This Card Will Give You ALL the Nostalgic Spooky Vibes

[@amymullins1566]

Can I just say that the card making Community is the most supportive I’ve ever been part of (cue the onion cutting) & WELCOME! You & your cards & videos ROCK! Love to you & your partner & pup!

[@cathymorris8072]

A spooktacular card! Love your mix of products, and I agree with your wish for more Halloween card making products. Halloween is definitely turning into a favorite holiday. As a kindergarten teacher it was one of my least favorite holidays. The kiddos were so wired due to candy for breakfast, lunch, dinner & snacks! Now that I'm retired I make cards & decorate my house inside and out! I'm enjoying your videos.

[@lynnplansahead]

I'm a new card maker. I've watched YT videos since the time we shall not speak of, but never felt I was ready for the cash outlay on the tools. I've since made the jump and Halloween Cards are ABSOLUTELY my gateway drug. Christmas is nice, but the variety of Halloween vibes you can capture are so fun. Love the card and welcome to YT :)

[@SandyHartley-c9w]

I have watched all 3 of your videos. Mostly a scrapbooker but started paper crafting by making cards and still enjoy making them. Yes I do send Halloween cards and my sister in law collectes the Dept 56 Halloween Village. I have really liked your videos and always learn something. Can't wait to see what is next.

[@sharonbaber6843]

I have used Memento Tuxedo Black for years...never smears. I use Versafine Clair onyx black for wording. Check with all the stamping greats for ideas. I am glad you spread the love by using different company products. I want to keep them around !! Glad you joined the group ! Cards are great and you look like your having the fun we all need !

[@scorpionzdezignz]

Super cute Halloween card. My fave Halloween movies are Hocus Pocus and Scream. But as a tradition, I always watch Rocky Horror Picture Show and as and end to the day, I put on The Crow. ❤ Great way to end the Halloween day and great start to my birthday. 👻🎃

[@ralphtyndall]

Ya know, I hate to say it...but I've still never seen rocky horror picture show!

[@scorpionzdezignz]

@@ralphtyndall 😲OMG no way! lol My boyfriend never saw it either til I put it on for him to watch. It's a cult classic. The music is catchy as hell. lol Watch it once, I feel like you will be creating more beautiful cards while chair dancing to it! 🤣😂

[@paulinegalloway8920]

I loved Hallowe'en when I was little. Our tradition was to dress up and go into people's houses and entertain with a song/poem/joke in exchange for food (not sweets) but American trick or treat has taken over 😢 I like the way you work it out on camera. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@ralphtyndall]

That sounds like a lovely tradition!

[@stacystark7715]

I'm an October baby and tend to get Halloween cards as a Birthday card. Love this

[@erinheath6529]

My favorites for black ink has become Gina K amalgam obsidian for alcohol and watercoloring (unless its no line and then I use distress ink vintage photo) and I like Altenew pigment ink also in obsidian for sentiments or super dark black stamping (so I sometimes keep the stamp in Misti to restamp in the Altenew after coloring). Good luck with your journey in cardmaking!

[@ralphtyndall]

Thank you Erin!

[@debbiewarren7749]

Really cute card. I look forward to seeing your creations.

[@deninaolmos9383]

Amazing video!!!! Please continue to make them I love the way you showed us exactly how to create this beautiful card!! I would also love to see more embossing cards.

[@shawnmariemann]

It's funny you said about getting Halloween cards. It is the ONLY holiday I send cards for. :-) I'm not sure what that says to my friends but I don't much care. Great card!

[@shaunaanderson4844]

I love how real you are about being a bit off with your die and not being perfect with your coloring. Great idea with the pebbled path...I don't think I would have thought of inking it like that. Great card...look forward to many more. Thanks

[@ralphtyndall]

Thanks Shauna! As a recovering perfectionist it's a constant battle to let the little things go 😅

[@barbshutt1122]

Great card. Thanks for sharing! Good luck in your card making journey - I find it very therapeutic!

[@user-or6hp4ze2p]

so glad u quit ure job. ure in your happy place designing cards :) pls post the envelope and magnetic sheet set u use for stamp/die storage. thank u! great crafting!

[@donnanuce]

I love the little emojis as you talk!😄

[@amkarei]

REPLY to RALPH ... Our kiddle had one "in the day", but WE found them to be great decorations along our entry sidewalk for Halloween. We cut out the bottoms and maneuvered them over the "Malibu Torchier-style" walk lights ! Worked great! But they did take up a lot of space in the garage to house them out of season! Thanks for the memory recall!! P.S.: Great fun watching your creations unfold (oops ... unintended pun there!)

[@sonialightfoot5562]

Absolutely love it. Ta. So glad you decided to do KZbin. Enjoying your approach.

[@gaylelazarus2394]

Hey Ralph, great intro 👻🎃💀. You really were made to do this card making gig. You really are great 👍. 😊gayle

[@lynnbogdanovich5284]

I was told by more experienced cardmakers than i, that memento is good for alcohol ink coloring. This is a great card. I'm not too into Halloween cards but this inspires me. Thanks for sharing.

[@jettielewis8677]

Sometimes Dollar Tree will carry tine foam squares. When I see them I pick them up! Best Price in town when the have Card is cute

[@terrieather1083]

I have been an alcohol marker colourist for years and have always used Memento ink for the stamping. Great card also!

[@alisonpendlebury-brown7885]

I also use memento for use with alcohol markers. I use versa for use with watercolours. You basically use the opposite type of medium. Dye ink for alcoholic ink and pigment ink with water colouring. Dye ink reacts with water, alcohol inks will move your pigment ink.

[@elainefant3319]

I do Halloween and Thanksgiving cards in July and Christmas Cards in August. Love this card.

[@bluesbabe73]

Love this card! I'm from Connecticut (the small state just under Mass) and have been to Salem many times. Its a wonderful place for any Halloween fan to visit any time of year.

[@ralphtyndall]

I concur! I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Mass.

[@Jenifer.flute20]

This card is so cute. And I love the little Halloween villages. I don’t own any pieces but I will start collecting now that my son is getting old enough to not break stuff lol

[@elainewood7719]

Great card Halloween is no big here in NZ but I do remember carving pumpkins as a kid in England. For finer splatter try a fan brush it will make smaller stars.

[@gerilynne1955]

My favorite holiday. Chervil out Temu! I have gotten a lot of Halloween items there. The dies cut beautifully.😊

[@flajeepgirl6]

Yes, my sister collects Dept 56 Halloween Village! We put it up across the mantle, love the entire time of the year.

[@divas8946]

I am definitely not a great alcohol marker user but when i do I use clear embossing powder over the black stamped image. That way you wont have to wait for the ink to dry or risk smudging. Its nice to hear a male point of view for cardmaking. Thanks for the fun cards!

[@LisaVornhagen]

I love that card! I would much rather see Halloween in July cards than Christmas. I'm a big horror movie fan, too.

[@sharonpink1]

I use momemto tuxedo black ink for coloring. It doesn't smear and dries very fast.

[@midwestbadger2503]

I never send a halloween card BUT i love halloween, so i make them anyways. Also good for scrapbooking. So fun! Thanks for sharing! Gina K amalgam ink is my go to for alcohol markers. cant beat it.

[@darbysquelch]

“I know just enough to be dangerous” is the story of my crafting life. I love Hocus Pocus for non scary Halloween movie and Army of Darkness for B movie horror/comedy.

[@inspiredthistle]

Love your card. You have lots of good details and suggestions.

[@huggyhuggsbears1265]

How could anyone NOT Love you??? I See you and I most definitely appreciate you Ralphy, a great job, the card (just like you) looks fabulous, lots of love & Best Wishes from UK XXXX

[@ralphtyndall]

Wow! Thank you 🙂

[@huggyhuggsbears1265]

@ralphtyndall You're very welcome. I really admire people that leave their boring, repetitive jobs and persue the ultimate goal, to work for yourself by doing what you love to do. That is the dream of many people out there....me included, BUT it is a fine line between turning your hobby/passion into a full time career and also being practical in terms of finances: it may be a boring & mundane job but it guarantees a regular wage to pay the bills and the roof over your head. It's a mental tug - of - war that I have been fighting. Maybe in a couple of years time it may be feasible but for now it's working the boring & mundane job that wins. I wish you all the success for your channel and may you grow and prosper artistically aswell as personally fulfilling your life's goals, lots of LOVE to you Xxxxx

[@woesis]

Favorite Halloween movie is probably Arsenic & Old Lace.

[@meganandian1]

Memento Black Ink is the best to use with Alcohol blends.

[@kristinekerr3688]

Very nice! Love making Halloween cards. I have the best luck doing my splatters with a small fan brush. Makes the perfect size splatters😊

[@valeriezimmerman9944]

Ralph, doing "all this" is a full time job. Filming, editing, creating, crafting. You are doing an awesome job and I get the I'm a fun professional vibe. love the cards today. You are off to a great start.

[@ralphtyndall]

It sure is! Thank you 🙂

[@salliepatterson5612]

Love the music!

[@DianeSturlinXX]

"Don't worry about being perfect", you say as you're meticulously cutting out with perfection😂😂😂 The one thing I hear over and over again on all of these channels is; "This is not Hallmark, it's handmade".

[@CecMorris]

Looking forward to Fall cards.

[@maryflint8329]

Versa fine onyx black is my fav. I like to use clear embossing powder over before I add color.

[@suetapia6865]

Thank you for sharing your ideas I’ve been making cards for 20+ years. I use momento black ink with my alcohol markers

[@ellenjampole1905]

I love Halloween too. I am far behind in my card making bc I am moving to Panama in Central America. As people said in your first video, your explanation is clear, you have a great voice, your pacing is excellent, and it's calming/soothing to watch you. I am awfully glad you aren't trying to sell a particular company's product and you share the wealth showing how various brands can seamlessly blend together. Great job & card. Thanks for sharing.

[@creativelanedesigns6198]

Love Halloween. I do have cute stamps from stampin up and a few other manufactures that I made treat bags with and tags for treat bags.

[@nicolejennings2576]

Wow that is a cool card so much dimension while having a clean finished look. You bring such good energy to your videos I feel better after watching them.

[@Sukeytoo]

For ink to stay wet longer I'll sprinkle them with clear embossing powder and heat set them.

[@abc97971]

Halloween is the ULTIMATE holiday and you can't convince me otherwise!!!!!!

[@ralphtyndall]

Agred!

[@michellewissler3013]

Hi Ralph I loved today's video, so full of fun and information! Your card is awesome! You explain everything so well and I learned a lot. Thank you so much for sharing. Wishing you much success. I will definitely be watching your channel. ☺️

[@elizabethkeeling-carreau1873]

I like the mix and match of companies. In Tim’s video yesterday he showed how to extend a die cut while using the same die. Just a thought. Great card.

[@jessieconger3553]

Neat card!!! I’m so excited to find a new person to watch!!! I wish you total luck at this!! I really enjoyed this and yes thank you for not making a Christmas in July card!!!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

[@CindyBushell]

Tuxedo Black Memento Ink is my standard go to ink for my Copic Markers. Thanks for another great video!

[@sandithompson3719]

Halloween is my birthday.... I love this card ❤❤❤❤

[@ralphtyndall]

What a fun birthday!

[@cherylbradley412]

Ralph, I had the pleasure of watching your fun and inspiring, with what I believe to be your first KZbin video a couple of weeks ago. I'm a big fan of Cathy Zielske as well. I know she's gotta be so proud of you, as are the rest of the crafting community you are now a part of. Congratulations!! I will look forward to watch you grow and thrive doing what you actually love to do! It's the best! Lots of luck and great success!

[@skyviewmaj2]

Love the card! I, too enjoy making Halloween cards

[@longgoneex3]

what an enjoyable watch! Been obsessed with your TikTok’s, and the KZbin videos are even better. I love the little blurbs that pop-up. It’s so cool seeing your vision come to life!!

[@mystichris1543]

Great blending, Ralph - and the card came out so good - very inspiring. Thanks so much!

[@elainefant3319]

It was so adorable and all I would add would be some red stickles.

Been following on tiktok for months and seeing your video last week made me so so happy! As a fellow spooky season lover, i am a huge fan of tgis card!!🎃👻

[@donnahurder4665]

What a great card! You did a fantastic job. Your enthusiasm for card making is very apparent. It's obvious you are enjoying yourself. Such a pleasure.

[@ralphtyndall]

Thanks Donna! I do have a good time :)

[@deniselawrie3570]

Fun card! I don't do a lot of halloween but I do have people asking for them. They are fun to do, my Lawn Fawn popup ones were a hit! My favourite ink to use with alcohol markers is Tonic studios Nuvo Hybrid black ink. It works with all mediums and drys quickly

[@valeriezimmerman9944]

Also, love that you aren't limited to on company. Love the blending of stamps and dies and inks etc. from some many different companies.

[@craftcreek4624]

Hi Randall, for copics, I use Versafine onyx or Versafine Clair in twilight then clear or black emboss before coloring

[@inkyspirits4995]

Halloween is also my favorite holiday! No one seems to send Halloween cards anymore, and it's so sad. Love your card and your love for the craft. Back off Christmas, it's Halloween's time to shine. 🎃 🧙‍♀️ 👻 🧟‍♂️

[@mackiemadepapercreations]

Memento Tuxedo is my go to for alcohol markers !!!

Although I've been crafting for years...this is the first time I've seen someone use the scoreboard to get the panel on the cardbase properly...😲😲 love it... and the card - of course 😀 - . Can't wait to see what other fabulous creations you come up with.

[@donnacipriano5390]

Halloween is my most favorite holiday too! I originally come from Conn. and visited Salem many, many times! It is quite an awesome day, for sure! Great card!

[@vikkibaker6146]

Thanks for the great little card! And know, it is NEVER too early for Halloween!

Making Halloween cards is fun. Made a bunch last year then ended up only sending a couple so am good for this fall yet.

[@debbiebghggnameouthill3195]

I love Halloween cards. I love how you mixed all the different products from different designers 😊

[@anjacurvers1135]

Well we don't have Halloween here over in the Netherlands but I really love all the Halloween cards and images. Love the typical Halloween colors too. You made a great card.

[@Jakesmom09]

Halloween card composition is wonderful. I do send Halloween cards. My sister’s bday is on Halloween

[@marygilmer9359]

Lawn Fawn Jet Black is my go to for alcohol ink coloring, I have tried several big brands, Lawn fawn is best. Versafine is best for sentiments. Altenew for super black colors.

[@kathyriebesell9527]

I find the Gina K Amalgam ink works great for alcohol ink coloring. Good luck in your new endeavor 🙂

[@ndsturg]

Love this card and now I need that moon!! I like the Simon Says Stamp intense black ink or Lawn Fawn jet black.

[@ralphtyndall]

The moon is really great!

[@paularobinson5708]

This card is very cute! I shared your video with my granddaughter. She LOVES Halloween and even leaves some things up year round, lol

Ralph, this was a fun card! For virtually instant stamp to color with Alcohol inks, the go-to for most crafters has been Tsukineko Memento Ink. I enjoyed the sidebar of your Halloween village. Halloween is my wife's favorite holiday also. Boo!

[@poohintheshoe]

Hi Ralph! I was watching CZ tonight and she shared your name and showed a card that you sent her!!! So cute. I really enjoyed your 2 videos and can't wait to see more!!! I loved all the elements you put onto 1 card! Thank you, I am super happy that I have found you!

[@williamkallenbach7461]

I am impressed ! You have everything, you definitely know what you are doing and you are very good at it !! Don't think you said when you actually started making cards. Evidently before you quit your job ? Good that you have a supportive partner 🙂

[@ralphtyndall]

I've been making cards for about a year!

[@dizzinese]

I have to say I’m not a big Halloween person but I don’t mind the cute side of it. The only thing I’ve found I like is some stamps and dies from Trinity stamps which are on my wishlist.

I DO have that one! I need to pull it out.

Please make a Fall card. Your Halloween card is great! Your right not many Halloween cards get sent, even though I will make them I don't send them out! Keep the videos coming!
