Happy Halloween

Hi fellow crafters, today for my DT card at Cheery Lynn Designs I am sharing some inspiration with their latest winter release.

I love this Aspen Forest Die as I see so many uses for it including Christmas and Halloween. 

My Aspen Forest was cut out white cardstock and inked with Distress Inks, I mounted onto corrugated card which I had also added Ink onto the raised areas. This gives my forest depth.

My trick and treat children were Shadow layered to make them pop.

I mounted my moon onto the twiggy wreath adding my ghouls and drop shadowed sentiment.

Hope you have a lovely week and find some time to craft.

Crafty Hugs,

Halloween Trick or Treat Fun

Hi everyone I hope you had a lovely weekend and managed some creative time. Today for my DT card at Cheery Lynn Designs I am sharing some more Halloween inspiration using many of the amazing Halloween dies that Cheery Lynn have.

My Witches Cauldron was cut out in black cardstock adding some Vintage photo Distress powder at the edges to give a rust effect. My flames and logs were cut out in White cardstock and coloured with Copic pens adding some Glossy Accents onto the flames.

My cute little Witch was cut from the Trick or Treat Border layering her with a foam pad.

My hills were die cut from my Stitched stacker die, I then fussy cut the shape of hills and highlighted the stitching effect with a black pen, distressing the edges and adding some black soot Distress ink.

My house I layered Orange cardstock behind to give a warm glow, layering on with foam pads and a spooky ghost behind. My stormy sky was created with inks and a cloud stencil.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope I have inspired you to create a Halloween scene on a card or Scrapbooking page. 

Good luck to everyone entering the Bi-Weekly Challenge at Cheery Lynn Designs for a chance to win a $20 spending spree.

Crafty Hugs,

Happy Halloween Friends

Happy Halloween to all my blog friends and followers, today for my DT post at Cheery Lynn Designs  I have made a Halloween card which I would like to share with you all.

For my Halloween card I cut out my stacker layers in Black and Mauve cardstock. I cut my Mauve layer in half so I could slightly offset it for a shadow effect, I also love how it has given a Gothic look to the die cut.

My Twiggy wreath and wording were also shadowed for extra detail and to make my design 'pop'.

I added some glittered gems and my Jack O Lantern to finish.

Hope you have a lovely weekend.

Who Ate The Spider !

Hi Everyone, I am having so much fun with the Halloween Dies from Cheery Lynn Designs, creating little scenes on my cards that I just had to share another one with you for my DT project this week.

My background was created with Hickory Smoke and Stormy Sky and a Spiders Web Stencil.

My Washing Line and Moon were cut out in White Cardstock and coloured with Copics adding a little bling on to the Witches shoes.

My Tombstone was also cut out in White Cardstock and shaded with Distress inks. My Barbed Wire was heat embossed with Silver Embossing Powder and a little Rust Coloured Stazon ink added to it.

As you can see my very naughty Horrible Cat ate the Spider off the web ! I cut my cat out in Black Cardstock and trimmed his head and front legs off. I then glued the body part in to a sitting position and placed a little Silicone Glue on to the back of his head and re positioned it for added dimension. My Spider I trimmed his legs down a little bit in an uneven way so they had a chewed look to them.

Thanks for stopping by today.
