Hello LCD Fans!
Leigh here to share the Halloween Luminary I made for the spooktacular 31 Days of Halloween blog hop we, the LCDesigners are playing in over at Lost Coast Portal to Creativity which is our blog for all our fun events and challenges! Pop on over and become a follower so you don't miss out on our fun activities, you could win some fab prizes!
I used two of our Carmen's Veranda stamps to make my luminary, Halloween Background and the
Flying Skull.
Flying Skull.
I'm really pleased with how it turned out and
YAY, LOL ;0)
I designed my luminary to be gorgeous in daylight and in the dark which you can see in all the photos below! The glow is ever so pretty in the dark and look at the cool pattern it casts on the wall too!
I love working with faux stained glass effects and this one
came together nicely. The luminary is quite large, measuring at 5.25"
square and 6.75" high. I've got a tall 3" wide flameless candle in
there but you can easily create a candlescape with a few in varying
sizes. The photos above show the luminary with a white paper insert
acting as a light diffuser and the last photo shows it without for more
of a stained glass effect. In the photos below you can see how pretty
it is in daylight too. I stamped 4 panels of clear artist's overlay
acetate with the Carmen's Veranda Halloween image in jet black StazOn
ink and applied Watermelon and Sunshine Yellow Ranger Adirondack Brights
Alcohol Ink with an ink applicator. I designed the cardstock frame
to fit the stamp perfectly, cut eight window panels with an Xacto knife
and stamped them all with CV's Flying Skull in Brilliance Pearlescent
Purple ink. Even in the dark the pearlescent ink glows too. The frame
folds were scored on a scoreboard and the acetate panels adhered to the
inside of the four front facing windows and the remaining four were
added to the inside for additional stability and to make the inside look
just as gorgeous as the outside.
