Happy Halloween Spider

Good Monday Morning, on the Dies R Us Blog today!

 

Today I have a Halloween card to share with you!

 

 

 

I used the Large Madison Window die by Poppystamps.  My sentiment was stamped on to the 'window box' in Black Licorice ink.  I used the Birch Trio by Memory Box for my outdoor view, which I cropped to fit in the window. 

 

 

The corner spider web is from Cheery Lynn, Lace Corner Deco H, which has 3 different corner dies to choose from, very economical!

 

 

The little spider hanging from  the window cross bar is actually part of a pumpkin die.  It's the foliage portion of the Plump Pumpkin by Memory Box.  I had just used it on another card and thought HEY, if I cut that out in black glitter paper I can surely make it look like a spider.  And I think it does.  And the more I look at it the more it looks like I could use it as a bat too!  lol  I guess that is thinking outside the box.....the Memory Box. 

 

A little Copic Marker colored seam binding ribbon, Wink Of Stella Clear Glitter Pen and Halloween Designer Papers for accents. 

I will be entering this card in the Challenge at Scrapy Land, Halloween.

Good Monday Morning!

 

I am on the Dies R Us Blog today!

I have created a couple of cards to share with you today, they feature the Large Madison Window die set by Poppy Stamps.  Unfortunately this particular die set is no longer available.....however you could easily substitute the Small Madison Window also by Poppy Stamps.  The die is just a tad smaller, but the outcome would be the same.

 

 

This is the inside view I created.  It simply uses the Window Die.  I created my beadboard by scoring every 1/4 inch using my Scor Pal.  A simple 1/2 inch strip of card stock to create my chair rail.  Anchor 'wallpaper' border, sentiment and anchor all stamped in Pacific Point ink by Reverse Confetti, Happy Harbor.  Lighthouse image by Gina K Designs, By The Sea colored with Copic markers.  Stickles added to create the 'light'.   

 

Here I have created my outside look.  This time I used the window, shutter, window box and foliage dies.  Which are all also included in the Small Madison Window die set.  I created my clapboards by scoring every 1/4 inch using my Scor Pal, this time horizontally. You can see a peek of the artwork hanging on the wall inside.  I filled my window box with starfish and sand dollars from an old Cuttlebug die I had in my stash.  BUT there are still many dies to choose from in the Dies R Us Store. 

 

Here are two of my favorites: 

 

Impression Obsession
Mini Shell Set

 

Trimcraft
Beach

 

 

 

Just another Cape Cod View.

These cards will also be entered in the Challenge at Simon Says Wednesday, Create A Scene.

Good Monday Morning!

 

Today I am sharing with you my very first post as a new member of the Design Team at the Dies R Us Inspirational Blog.  YAY!

My first card uses the fantastic Large Madison Window Set, by Poppystamps.

I die cut the window and window box out of white card stock, the flowers from pink and yellow and the vines from 2 different shades of green.  Flowers and vines I cut several times to fill that glorious window box with pretty Spring posies.  Behind the window I placed some Polka Dot Designer Paper to mimic wallpaper and added a piece of lace as my curtain, and Vellum for my pane of glass.  This was all mounted on fun foam, giving the window scene some depth and dimension.  Assembled my flowers and placed in the window box.  Some have pearl centers some have little seed beads.  Brick Embossing Folder tinted with a bit of Antique Linen ink for my house.  The addition of the sweet little house sentiment. 

For my second card I used the same exact die set.

I've always wondered what would be on the other side of window scene cards.

I created this in the exact same manner, only from inside the house looking out.  Polka Dot Designer Paper for my wallpaper and white bead board with chair rail, which was made by scoring the white card stock every 1/4".  Tree image stamped, Vellum and lace added to complete my scene.  Again, mounting all on fun foam.  This time I found the window box would make a perfect place to stamp my sentiment.   Mini Candy Dots for accents.

 

Sentiments from Gina K Designs, Home Is and Home Tweet Home.

I love that this die set has everything you need to create wonderful rooms with views.  ONE die set, Large Madison Window Set, by Poppystamps.

Thanks so much for stopping by, see you soon!

Enjoy~~
