Let's see the inspiration from the team - we've been creating lots of gorgeous projects for you...

Today we're thrilled to welcome Carrianne to the design team - we look forward to sharing her amazing projects with you all - welcome Carrianne!

Carrianne - For my first challenge, I had to choose between an Autumn or alloween card. I chose Halloween, as I love scary things. I have created a cute, not-so-scary card featuring the Mummy Boo Halloween digital image. The sentiment is from Halloween Trick or Treat Printable Greetings. I colored the image with Copic markers and then cut it out using my Scan N Cut machine. The background was created with distress oxide inks using the smooshing technique. I finished the card with purple sequins.

Copics used:

Skin: E000-00-11-02

Mummy: W3-2-1, BV000

Julie - Halloween - My most favorite theme to create cards for! Today’s design team card is crafted to resemble an eerie tombstone using an arched die and a few quick snips with scissors for the card bottom. The mystical background is blended with spooky ink tones, a touch of metallic splatter and hints of ghostly whispers. A chilling haunted house looms in the foreground - Polkadoodles Spooky House. I colored in the windows with yellow tones and clear embossed the house to create the sinister glow of the house in the darkness. Creepy bats and tattered tombstones were included in the Spooky House download and were perfect for adding an unsettling charm to the scene. The bottom of the tombstone card reads “Happy Halloween” - one of the many sentiments from Ghastly Ghost Printables. I can’t wait to send out this ghostly greeting! My Instagram/Facebook

Rachael - For this weeks challenge my inspiration is using one of the cool gnomes from the recent release called Autumn gnome trick or treat I love the sentiments and papers in this pack too they are all perfect together !

Kim Simpson - For this week’s challenge, I made another Halloween card, this time using the oh-so-adorable Mummy Boo digital stamp. I loved coloring up this cutie with Copics and layering it up with some fun digital papers! I just love this image so much! How about you?

Gaby - For this slimline card I used Flower fairy sitting on a toadstool digital stamp and Winnie Daisy greetings, quotes and sentiments. This illustration it´s perfect for autumn cards.

Ana - I love the Halloween period of the year! For my project this week I have chosen Witch Broomstick Halloween Gnome digital stamp and fantastic Halloween Trick or Treat printable papers. I made a shaker card and I hope you like it!

Wendy - Hi everyone! It's finally here - Halloween month! I just love this holiday. Halloween cards are some of the most fun to create. For this challenge, I used the Autumn/Fall Halloween Treat Bundle to create this fun shaped card, and colored it with my Copic markers. It was so much fun to make. Thank you for looking!

Merja - I used Isadora Witch image and coloured her with alcohol markers (and some white gel pen) before fussy cutting her. Then I cut the crystal ball with the Snow Globe die and coloured it with Distress Inks and white gel pen. I also used Starry Nights stencil with gold glitter paste to bring some more magical feeling. The base of the crystal ball is die cut from black cardstock and I added some white details with white gel pen and white paint pen. When the crystall ball was ready I taped Isadora on it with foam tape and added a Hocus Pocus sentiment from Boo Halloween Sentiment bundle.
