Witchy Woman


What better way to celebrate my birthday than by making a card for my favorite holiday!  Tickled Pink Stamps is sponsoring Creative Inspirations this week and the theme is "ANYTHING GOES"!  So of course I opted to create something Halloween!

I chose Lil Haunts Witch Lylah as my image.  I remembered that I had these cool Martha Stewart Elegant Witch coasters in my crafty stash.  I also happened to have the matching Elegant Witch paper mat stack!  Perfect!  I colored Lylah with Copics and fussy cut her (no easy feat as this image has lots of thin, delicate areas).  Here is a closer look at my witchy woman:


I created a "frame" for her with the Spellbinders Nestabilities Fleur de Lis and Classic Squares.  A little cheesecloth behind her gives her some definition against the busy background paper.  I really went a little crazy with the embellishments, also adding pearls, flowers, a doily, and a Magnolia Doohickey die cut swirl.


But I like the look of the finished card and think the cluttered chaos works perfectly for this bewitching lady!

Please head over to the Tickled Pink Stamps blog to see what the other talented {PINK} gals have created for this challenge!  Then play along yourself for your chance to win a fabulous TPS prize!

I'm off to enjoy my yummy chocolate birthday cake!  Hope your day was as special as mine!  Thanks for the visit and please know that all your lovely comments are always greatly appreciated!

Markers used: Copics (E11, E21, E00, R20, Y32, Y35, Y38, YG91, YG93, W4, W6, W8, W10). 

I'd also like to enter this card in the following challenges:
- The Crazy Challenge: #126-Black, White, and 1 Other (yellow)
Whoopsie Daisy: Die Cuts and/or Punches

Tickled Pink Stamps Sponsorship: Creative Inspirations



Hello! I bet some of you are scratching your head, thinking "But it's Tuesday..." I know that I rarely post anything at the beginning of the week, but today I'm here to share a Tickled Pink Stamps sponsorship with you! TPS is sponsoring Creative Inspirations this week, and the challenge is, you guessed it - a sketch! So you know I couldn't pass it up! Nor could I pass up the opportunity to make another fun Halloween card (This makes 10 in my stash for this year so far)! My adorable image is Lil Haunting Witch Audrey from Tickled Pink Stamps' Lil Pinkette line. And she is the rubber version too! *gasp* I do own her as a digi, but TPS owner/{PINK} goddess Kellie was so kind as to send her to me as a special birthday treat earlier this month since she knows how much I love Halloween. So how could I not ink her up?!?!

My papers are from a DCWV pad (The Midnight Spell stack), and I kept my embellishments rather simple. Just a few flowers (Recollections and Prima), some brads and ribbon from my stash, and a line of black pearls. The sentiment was created with stickers because I decided to add it after my image was already adhered, and I didn't want to risk stamp and ink at that point. lol To match my paper theme I used the Martha Stewart spider web punch for the element in the upper left-hand corner.

You'll want to take a peek at what some of the other amazing {PINK} ladies have created using this sketch so go on over to the Tickled Pink Stamps blog. We hope that our projects will inspire you to join in the fun at Creative Inspirations! Thanks for stopping by! Have a fabulous day!
