Happy Halloween by Julie Lavalette

Hi fellow crafters, it's JULIE here today and I am sharing some inspiration with our 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,

Julie x

Halloween Trick or Treat Fun by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 2 Comments

Hi everyone it's JULIE here today, I hope you had a lovely weekend and managed some creative time. Today I am sharing some more Halloween inspiration using many of the amazing Halloween dies 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 our Bi-Weekly Challenge for a chance to win a $20 spending spree.

Crafty Hugs,

Ding Dong The Witch is Dead by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 4 Comments

Hi everyone, it's JULIE here. Thanks so much for all your lovely comments on my blog for our current blog hop Flower Power. Please scroll down to our previous post and join in the fun if you haven't done so yet for a chance to win a $20 shopping Spree here at Cheery Lynn Designs.

My post today is using some more of the fabulous newly released Halloween dies. Soon as I saw the Witches Skirt Die I thought of the song Ding Dong the Witch is Dead from the film Wizard of Oz. So I decided to combine this into my Halloween card.

I started with a card measuring 8" x 5" layering some Vellum over my orange cardstock for a spooky feel and a drop shadow effect onto my spiders webs.

My centre background was created uses inks and a Stencil. I double layered the Witches Skirt and added more spider webbing for extra detail. I Added a shadow effect to my trick or treaters and spooky tree.

Hi Cheery Lynn friends, it's JULIE here, thanks for stopping by to see my post today. Halloween is fast approaching so I thought it would be nice to share some inspiration with you all.

I decided to make my own inky background. You will notice from the photograph I taped my die cut in place along with the die, applying my Distress Inks and a Web Stencil for depth.

I then went around the perimeter with a Black Fine Liner Pen before lifting my die cut off. This helps to frame your inky detail.

My web I added some ink along with some Rock Candy Distress Stickles, double layering Happy Halloween for a Shadow Effect.

My tree was cut out in White Cardstock, inking the edges and adding Distress Stickles to the Black Cardstock for an eerie glistening effect, off setting my tree I glued in place.

Trick or Treat Card by Corina Finley

Corina 3:30 AM 0 Comments

Trick or Treat!

Corina here with you today on the Cheery Lynn Designs blog. For this weeks card I used embossing powders to give the die cuts dimension, depth, and texture.

I started with a card base in white cardstock and sprayed with blue and purple dye ink. I layered the Spider Web Mesh Border on top and spritzed with water. Then removed the Spider Web Mesh Border. This technique lightens the area not covered by the border die cut, leaving a stencil/ghost like effect. I dried with a heat gun. See the wonderful look it created below. If you wanted a more intense look, just let the water sit longer before drying with a heat tool.

I cut the Deutschland Boutique Stacker A2 Frame die cut from black cardstock and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Then layered onto the card. I added a Spooky Tree which was covered in UTEE and while warm pressed a wood grain stamp into the UTEE to give texture.

My favorite part from this card, is the T rick or Treat sentiment. I cut it out twice. Once in white cardstock and sprayed with green dye ink. This is my base layer of the sentiment. The second was cut from black cardstock, I only applied embossing ink and black sparkle powder randomly to the top of the die cut. I then trimmed and adhered to the top of the green sentiment base.

Dies Used:

Spooky Tree - B191

Trick or Treat - B636

Fall Pumpkins - B240

Spider Web Mesh Border - B322

Deutschland Boutique Stacker A2 Frame (set of 4) - DL294

I hope you will play along in our weekly Cheery Lynn Designs Challenge 198 - Doilies. You could win a $20 shopping spree at the online Cheery Lynn Designs store

Thanks for joining me today!

Take care,

Live, Laugh & Create!

Trick or Treat by Karen Maldonado

Hi there Cheery Lynn friends! It's Karen sharing another

new release card with you today!

I first started by creating my card base in orange designer paper.

Then, layered a black and white designer paper to that top.

Using the Expandable Tiny Borders and Border Carnivale,

I added these layers and tucked them under the main

small diamond designer paper!

Next, I die cut the Trick or Treat die, and distress inked the

sentiment in several colors. I poured some distressed crackle, and once dried,

I distressed inked in some walnut stain distress, so that cracks

would really stand out!

Then, I cut out the Rose Leaf Strip,

Build a Flower #1 (for center of flower), and the Daisy Strip! Each piece

was distress inked and I also added some distress glitter to the flower center!!

Finally, I die cut the Horrible Cat and two of the Jack-O'-Lanterns!

Then, poured some distressed glitters to the top of each of these dies.

I just love the sparkly and amazing texture this adds to the dies!

I also added a few Ivy Strip die cuts to the top of the smaller pumpkin and

also to the top of the medium size pumpkin.

I added some Glossy Accents to each of the ivy leaves for some added shine!

You would be amazed at the sparkly, shiny and crackly texture on this card!

Here's the full list of dies used:

B594 Jack-O'-Lanterns

B181 Build a Flower #1

B259 Daisy Strip

B215 Expandable Tiny Borders

DL129 Border Carnivale

Still time to join this week's challenge for a

chance at a $20 shopping spree to the Cheery Lynn on-line store!

Have a great day!

Hugs,

Karen

Haunted House by Julie Lavalette

Juliz Design Post 3:30 AM 3 Comments

Hi Cheery Lynn friends, it's JULIE here today and I am sharing with you another card using some Halloween dies from the Latest Release.

I started off by making my own background paper with stamps and inks, matting and layering on to my stacker dies. Next I cut out my Spiders Web in purple card stock then placed them on to the corners and added purple Stickles around the edges.

My orange mat I added a little Distress ink and went around the pierced holes with a white pen, layering on to my card with a little Silicone Glue.

My Home Sweet Home die I layered up twice and added some yellow card stock behind the windows to make them pop and I pulled the windows to an ajar position.

With layering my house twice it gave my tree some extra added dimension and popped the house forward on my card rather than lying flush to the card stock.

My Bat was cut in black cardstock and offset with some white. I stamped my sentiment in clear Embossing ink and embossed with extra fine white Embossing Powder.
