I created a cup holder and broomsticks using the image Witch Broomstick Halloween Gnome - from the Gnome Trick ore Treat which was coloured with Nuvo Markers and Fussy cut. I then Die cut a scalloped and Slimline piece form the Halloween Trick or Treat printable papers and a rectangle slimline piece from the and the Halloween Trick or Treat printable papers Bundle 1.

DONNA PARROTT - Hi guys, for this weeks card I’ve used one of the gnomes from the matchables collection Gnome Tis the Season Matchables 4 x 6" Stamp set and the trees from the Jingle Bells stamp set Jingle Bells Christmas stamps I also used this Winter Wishes Craft Stencil to add some interest to the backing paper. To create the closure, I used the Fancy snowflake - Christmas Craft cutting die.

So let's get to today's inspiration... 

Sam - I would normally say I am not a fall person as it means the colder weather is coming although while making my DT card I reflected on a school excursion I went on to the botanical gardens in Autumn to see all the beautiful leaves and the vibrant autumn colours.  It was stunning!  So for my card I used Eli Elephant Clearing leaves PrecolouredEnfys Jetsetting for the paper and I used the Woodlands Door Die for the leaf embellies.  Happy Crafting!

Donna - Hello Crafty Friends!  The team is going Autumn this round and for my project, I've used the adorable Winston Bear Get in Touch digital stamp to create an Autumn Wishes card.  Winston has been colored using alcohol markers and highlighted with fun autumn patterned papers.  Autumn is my favorite time of year, I adore the rich colors, crunchy leaves and crisp air! 

Melanie - Morning all, for my project I have made a magic iris card featuring the Snowdrift friends image. I coloured the image as usual, using my spectrum noir markers and adhered this on to my magic iris backdrop which I have ink blended a snowy sky using distress oxide inks and added a snowy hill. The Sentiment used reads “ all hearts come home for Christmas” which is from the Winnie white Christmas sentiment bundleTo complete the card, I’ve added some yellow glitter stars and some white gel pen to the background. Happy Crafting! Mel x

 Judy: My DT project for this week's challenge is a set of Halloween Treat Bags that would be perfect to be given as party favors. I used a silhouette cut file for the bags and decorated with stamps from Fang-tastic 4 x 6" Stamp Matchables. The stamped images were colored with Prismacolor Pencils and Arteza Inkonic Pens and fussy cut. 

SARAH - These cute party hats are so quick and simple to make!! Just use a template to cut a party hat from your fave halloween papers (this is even easier if you have a digital cutting machine!), pop a pompom on the top and use some of the cute Winnie Halloween digital Witch and Pumpkin stamps to decorate (there are sooo many to choose from!!). Party ready in no time!!

Rose Hello Friends, hope you are excited for new challenge, it's all about Autumn, one of my favourite season of the year. Today, I am using digital image Taking a Break Toadstool combined with digital paper Eden Collection - Paper Heaven 2 .Added some handmade paper flowers with printed out sentiment . Read more on my blog.
ENRICA - Hello crafty friends!  For my Halloween party I've created some lollipop cards and a decorated base to hold them using some cute digis from the 'Boo Halloween big bundle', 
Digital papers from the 'Halloween Trick or Treat printable download papers 2 set' and added sentiments from the 'Halloween Trick or Treat printable download Sentiments'  Let the fun begin!! xx
DONNA PARROTT - Hi guys, this week I’ve created some little Halloween party bags, ready to be filled with tasty treats. I’ve used a mix of papers from Batty Boo’s Paper Pack Batty Boos Halloween paper pack 6 x 6" - Polkadoodles Ltd and Spooky Special Paper Pack Spooky Special Paper pack 6 x 6" - Polkadoodles Ltd to create the bags, and I’ve used Witch Broomstick Gnome Witch Broomstick Halloween Gnome digital stamp - printable clipart for cardmaking, craft, scrapbooking & stickers - Polkadoodles Ltd Witch with Cat Witch with Cat Halloween Gnome digital stamp - printable clipart for cardmaking, craft, scrapbooking & stickers - Polkadoodles Ltd and Frankenstein Monster Frankenstein Monster Halloween Gnome digital stamp - printable clipart for cardmaking, craft, scrapbooking & stickers - Polkadoodles Ltd for decoration. Visit my blog for measurements and step by step photos. 
NATALIA - Do you like Halloween atmosphere? These colours, candles, lights, pumpkin, and... of course sweets for kids. I love it! So... For today's inspiration, I've created a coffin shape box for Halloween treats. I used a chipboard and a little structural paste to make a wooden look for my project. I painted it all in black and brushed a bit of green colour on the top. I completed my box using stencil Bird in the bush and placed it in the frame on the front of the pack. I also printed off a sentence from the Spooky sentiments - digital download bundle - It's Candy time...and my treats box is ready. Creative Halloween for everyone!
SABINA - Hello and welcome to our Autumn challenge this week. I did a mixed media project with  Apple Bobbing Halloween Gnome digital stamp and Halloween Trick or Treat printable Greetings. I glued down Distress Ink Papers plain digital papers to the cardboard and then applied gesso and coloured with watercolour paints and Stabilo Woody pencils. I stamped leaves from Flower Collage Stamp set on some parts of the cardboard.
Sharon Schlezinger - I created this Autumn card using this adorable Winnie Dandelion image - I'm not sure dandelions are around in autumn/fall or not but I think it still works great!

Ann-Nicole - I made this hanger using these great digis from the awesome Autumn bundle download - you get so much in here, it's fab! 

Wendy - I've used Eli clearing leaves for this autumn card and added this Tree which makes a great background and the pumpkins are from the Autumn bundle download...hope you like it!


WOWEEE! A great mixture of Halloween and Christmas inspiration for you this week - thanks so much to all the team!
