Witchie Boo

I made a card tonight. It felt so good. Especially after spending all day moving my craft room down stairs and all evening at teachers conferences standing in line. I still have more to move but I needed a break.

I used a Whisper White card stock and SU Green Galore Ink and the SU polkadot background to stamp this card. I used a 3"x 4-1/4" piece of the halloween decorative paper I got in a RAK box on the bottom of the card. I trimmed a black piece of Cardstock to 2" and then used my SU slit tool punch to scallop the edge. After I trimmed athin piece of a Purple cs from an assortment I got at Walmart to the top edge of the Black cs I picked up at Michaels and then trimmed it close with zig zag Fiskar scissors. I free handed piercing the indents with my paper piercer.
I trimmed a piece of orange cardstock, from the same assortment, to 5/8" and attached it so a slight amount of blacked showed on each side then tied the Purple and green gingham over that. I decided it needed a bit more so I added the faux stitching with my Basic Black marker. this piece was adhered to the front with Zots dots.
I stamped the witch image from the Su Boogalie Eyes set on Whisper white with Stazon Jet Black and then matted with the orange and a black cardstock from my scrap pile. I colored her with the various colored pencils and used a prisma colorless blender pencil to blend in the color from the edges. I like the way she turned out. I also have decided I like coloring the cute images from this set I borrowed from my friend.
I can tell the stamp room being down stairs might be benificial, I had to run up and down the stairs to check ink color when making this post!

Until later ...Happy Stamping!
