I wish I had set my timer for making this diorama and it took me 4 TRIES . Yes 4 tries to get it right. One of the problems I was having is I don't have a slim enough die cut long enough and I don't have an exacto knife (I'm afraid of using them) so I cut this shorter than the example. Mine is 5" wide instead of 6 1/2". That way I could use a smaller die cut for my middle and not have such wide sides. Hope this makes sense! Anyway, I dug out more Halloween critters to make this card. I do like how it came out even though it took me well over an hour to complete this card!! Whew!! Now I need a nap! LOL Here is the tutorial on Splitcoast complete with a video should you want to try to make one. It does lay flat to mail but I am going to keep it on my desk for ME as it makes me smile :).

ReplyDeleteFab card Sherri - defintitely worth all the effort! I don't like the trick or treaters at Hallowwen either (although the ones on your card look quite fun!) Thanks for joining us at As You See It challenge. Deborah DT
ReplyDeleteThis diorama card is fantastic and those little trick or treaters are so cute! I'm so sorry it took so much out of you to make it! It was definitely worth the effort though! I always get a kick out of the little trick or treaters at Halloween, although some of the older ones can be a bit scary! Thanks for filling in our blank at As You See It Challenges!
ReplyDeleteAdorable card! I have tried to adapt dimensions and I know how frustrating it can be, but you ended up successful and your card looks great! Thanks for joining us at Festive Friday.
