Halloweenies

Well, well, well... who have we here?  
Have you ever made a Diorama?  I have always wanted to make one.  I always love that 3D look and this style doesn't disappoint.  It starts with this idea of making the Branch Tree into a 3D tree. 
 
Blah, Blah, Blah... lets get to the good stuff!


Oh how I love these Halloweenies holding their pumpkins!


After they are coloured I poked out their eyes!  After all we want to see the light shine through!  Cut a graveyard and ink with distress spray stains.  Spooky!  I cut a round base for everything to sit on so I had some elevation.  Cut a hole for the lights to pop through.


Add some distress ink so you can make it look weathered with water spritzing.  Then I stamped some DEATH!  For the pumpkin I wanted something other that that glaring orange!  So I grad some tissue and stamped my own background then cut into strips.


Glue like a boss!  Add more ink once dry... why not!  Now glitter those bats!  The pumpkin I picked up at Michaels already cut.


Ohhh leaves... how I love fall leaves.  I keep my backgrounds I make just so I can cut leaves when I need them!


TWIST N' STYLE TOOL!!!  Perfect to attach bats. I cut and scored a stand for my Halloweenies.  That way I could give them a slight bend.  After the tree was installed I added LOTS of moss!  Then assemble all the pieces, bits and bobs inside.  I use hot glue.


TA DA!!!



Dark and scary!


I topped it off with a few Fall die cuts and the AWESOME broom!


Check it out... my own stamped background!


How I love all things Halloween!


I added some bones, more cut fall foliage and a pumpkin.  


Seriously loving this Gothic Gate!  I snipped this bad boy in half so it looks like your at the entrance of something sinister.



Another pumpkin tucked behind the gate.  Don't trip...


EEK... BATS!  Here's where the Twist n' Style FREAKIN' ROCKS!


The stamped tombstones look  freakish!


Lights on!  Ohhhh the leaves are falling.


Hey, lets add a candy corn tree.


OK, that's freaky!


Loving the diorama!


You can never have too much creepiness!  Thanks for creepin by!  More to come...

  7. Fantastic, Nicole! I can't imagine how you included so many details. Punching out the eyes of the children (I can't believe I just typed that) is genius. Thanks for sharing on Creative Carte Blanche, we love your work!

  8. Nicole, sweetie, you could tip me over with a feather right now! I absolutely adore your diorama, and all it's spooky details! My favorite bit are the punched out eyes--they add so much drama when the lights are on! There is something so very wrong with what I just wrote, but it is sooo effective what you've done here!

    I do need to know how you do the video thing, and how to upload it to a post on Blogger, because I have a thing or two that would be much better if I attached a video snippet. Any tutorials out there you would like to share with me????

    DT hat now: Thank you for sharing this with us at Anything But Cute. Halloween is my favorite 'Autumn Day'! Hugs! Sara Emily DT
