I wanted to share with you a card I made for my dear Sister In Law's birthday. It is in the middle of October so I thought the witch was fitting. I didn't want to make her scary since I hold nothing but loving feelings for her. I chose ching-chou kuik's "Pick a Pumpkin". I thought she was classy yet still was the look I wanted. Fall, Halloween, beauty......... You can buy her as a single stamp or on a page with three others at where else, Sweet Pea Stamps.
I colored my image with copics and then dusted her here and there with some stickles. I love my sparkle. My background was done with chalks and then I cut her out with my scalloped nestie that I edged with distressing walnut ink. The sentiment was computer generated and received the same treatment. I tied a tulle bow around the card and then added three prima flowers with a gem stone in the center. To finish it off I tucked raffia in two colors behind the bow and the flower to give it a bit of a rustic look, as if she just came out of the pumpkin patch!
Don't forget to visit "In A Sweet Pea Dream" and try your hand at the challenges!
Wow Kym she's beautiful. I love the tulle and the rafia treatment, it's perfect~
