HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
This ghoulish card has taken a while to create! There had to be a lot of drying time for the stickles that were used. There was a lot of coloring with Copics. I didn’t just make one card I had to make 8! You know my rule, if you’re making one, you may as well make 8.
The houses were stamped first and I also created a mask. Then the clouds were put into the scene along with the orange stickles in all of the windows. Drying time of course! Frankie, Count and Witchie were all stamped previously and colored during a few nights of watching TV. After the stickles were dry, then I stamped the swirls behind Witchie's broom with Versamark ink and sprinkled it with Sparkle N Sprinkle-Tequila Sunrise embossing powder and glitter. It is very difficult to make color and sparkle to show up on black cardstock. Next I attached Witchie with pop dots from Stampin Up. I drew in the sidewalk lines to the houses and then placed Count and Frankie on top of the foreground with pop dots too.
The moon was stamped with white pigment ink and embossed with white pigment powder and had some stickles added to his eye.
The sprigs of grass were added by hand using a WHITE Sharpie poster-paint pen. Now you CANNOT use COPICS to color over this poster paint because the paint will clog the pores of your pen. After the poster paint was dried, I used a Stampin Up marker in Garden Green to go over the top of the white pen. It did make the grass look green instead of white. Hopefully the picture will show green grass.
**NOTE**: After reviewing these pictures on-line I am not really happy how the colors look. If you review the Copic marker color list, you'll get a better idea on how the colors really pop out. Maybe the color isn't true because it's cloudy outside...certainly it couldn't be the photographer!
