Alison<\/a> was inspired by so many elements of this beautiful mood board, starting with the candlelight and glasses… that’s always going to add up to a candle lantern in her creative world.  You’ll have to visit her blog to see these lanterns lit up by night.  The altered jars are covered with Tim Holtz Idea-ology Collage Paper – Halloween<\/a>, which has a few fir-like branches to go with the leafy die-cuts, all prompted by the left-hand photo. The leaves are a combination of Tim Holtz’s Fall Foliage<\/a> and Leaf Fragments Thinlits<\/a> by Sizzix, all coloured with Distress Ink Spray Stains<\/a> and Distress Mica Stains<\/a> for that glorious shimmer.  Design Tape<\/a> around the top echoes the gold glasses frames, and the black wire handles are inspired by the umbrella frame.  There are even some clear raindrops (glued on with Glossy Accents<\/a>) glistening on the surface of the lanterns!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Andrea<\/a> made a Halloween tag in tones of black and orange, which were prevalent in the mood board. She used Dina Wakley’s Pocket Squares stamp set<\/a> and Tim Holtz’s Halloween Whatnots stamp set<\/a>. She also used Dina’s Dotted Tape stencil<\/a> and a die-cut witch hat from Tim’s Vault Wicked die set<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> was inspired by the colors, clear surfaces, rain and of course the leaves. She created a clear card with a fall wreath filled with flowers and leaves. The leaves, wreath and flowers were die cut with Tim Holtz Vault Foliage Wreath. <\/a>The Simon Says Stamp Clear Acetate Card <\/a>was dry embossed in the Simon Says Stamp Soft Snowfall embossing folder.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/a> was inspired by neutral colors with a touch of blue, as suggested by the beautiful Mood Board designed by Macarena. She added a touch of sparkle to both the background and the leaves with Ranger Distress Spritz<\/a> in various colors. For the background, she chose the Spots stencil by Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous<\/a>. The leaves are cut with two Sizzix dies: Leaf Fragments<\/a> and Skeleton Leaves<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Kath<\/a> is definitely feeling Autumn in the air and created a whimsical autumnal woodland scene featuring the adorable ghost from Tim Holtz\/Stampers Anonymous Boo Crazy<\/a> on a #8 Etcetera Tag<\/a> and used Tim Holtz\/Sizzix Vault Foliage Wreath<\/a>, Vault Wicked<\/a>, Vault Fright Night<\/a> and Vault Gothic Portraits<\/a> Thinlits with a spritz or two of Antique Linen<\/a> and Rusty Hinge<\/a> Distress Spritz to add a little woodland shimmer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> is already in an Autumn mood so she made a card inspired by nature using self made circles background with Tim Holtz Distress Paints: Rusty Hinge<\/a> and Crackling Campfire<\/a>. She made the composition with Hero Arts Fancy Dies Mushrooms and Ferns<\/a> and her favorite rosettes from Prima Marketing Red, White and Blue ReDesign Mould<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Maura<\/a> was inspired by Macarena’s beautiful fall mood board to create an art journal spread. She use AALL and Create’s Hot Drinks<\/a> and The Story Never Ends stamps<\/a>, along with Prima’s Nature Academia Ephemera <\/a>and Simon Says Stamp’s Floating Leaves stencil<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a tag using Simon Says Clear Stamps Once Upon a Dream<\/a> and Memento TUXEDO BLACK MARKER Dual Tip Tsukineko<\/a> on the background. I then colored it with Altenew Artists Watercolor 24 Pan Set<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Zoey<\/a> used the newly released SPRITZ<\/a> to add autumn vibe to her atcs. She also use Cello tape<\/a> and Halloween Ideaology<\/a> Ephemera. For added texure she used Mini Bones Stencil<\/a> and Black Texture Paste<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
