Spell-tacular...

Hello, hello!

We are less than a week away from Halloween night so I've got one more magical card for today's Scenic Saturday post on the Bellarific blog. How about a trip to the wizarding world with this Tiny Townie Wizard in Training with Owl leading the way.

I wanted to create a simple scene for the Tiny Townie Wizard in Training with Owl that was monochromatic, so that this young wizard would stand out at a glance, but still tell a bit of the story. A spooky castle staircase winding away behind him ended up being the perfect way to achieve those goals. I used a mix of grey markers from all four of the Copic grey color families to achieve a more organic stone look on the walls and stairs. Combined with the black and grey tones in his uniform, those gold and maroon house colors certainly 'pop'. The postage frame die combined with postage theme accents make this enchanting scene just right for some owl mail. The sentiment that completes the card is from the Wicked Words Sentiment set and I think it was made just for these magic wielding Tiny Townies from the holiday release.  :)

Stay crafty my friends!
