Spooky!


I have a GD card today made for the challenge at Gingerloft where I was asked to be a Guest Designer this week after coming in the Top 3 a couple of weeks ago. My image is a Gingerloft digi image coloured with Copics, I also printed a larger copy and cut one of the pumpkins out to use in the corner. I didn't have any Halloween bp so I used a piece of purple paper stamped a few dots and added some confetti bats, I cut two larger bats out of black paper and added some eyes. I finished with a computer generated sentiment and a skull and crossbone charm.

I would also like to enter this card for the following challenges:

Winter Wishes



Last Saturday I had a fantastic day out at the Lili of the Valley Colouring Masterclass, we were shown colouring techniques with Copics and Prismacolour pencils by Bev and Jacqui, I have tried today to use these techniques in the colouring of this image by LOTV. I have made this card for the challenge at LOTV which this week is BINGO I chose to follow the row, gems, flowers, ribbon and lace. As I said my image is by LOTV and coloured with Copics, I used Stickles on the fur and for some of the snowflakes to which I also added some adhesive gems. The bp is by Bo Bunny - I bought this last year and have never used it before, the Poinsettia is cut with a Marianne die and I added some Twinklets and a white pearl. The sentiment is from Crafters Companion and I finished with a ribbon bow and some lace.
