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!

If procrastination is an art form then I am a masterpiece! I always seem to wait until the last minute to get things done! And today's creation was no exception! (Although, as I type this there are still two hours until the challenge goes live so I suppose it could be worse! lol) I tell myself I work better under pressure, but right now all I'm thinking about is my bed... So briefly, I am here to tell you about Tickled Pink Stamps' sponsorship of Divas by Design. The theme is one we all love: "Anything Goes"!
I chose the digi version of Lil Perfect Match Lolita Pirate Lylah for my project. She is colored with Copics and Prismacolor Art Markers. Papers are from the Union Square pad from Michaels Recollections line. I'm really loving these right now! I used a sentiment from Gina K. Well, half a sentiment. It was a birthday greeting but I only inked up the "treasured friend" part. I can now use if for Valentine's Day or just because! I stamped a small treasure map around the edges of my image panel and then distressed it with scissors and ink. The bling swirls, lace, and flowers are from my stash. That super cool pirate doubloon was a RAK from my crafty friend MishB. Sketch is courtesy of Try Stampin' on Tuesday (#51).
