Hi there!
This magical mistress of the night is the Wild Sprout from the TGF Spooky set. Originally she has just the super slicked back hair but I felt like giving her some extra long locks. It was really easy, all I did was draw in a few lines behind her and colored 'em in. Once I had her all colored up something about her gown had me seeing her as Arachne, Queen of the spiders so I grabbed this cool stitched spider web die and used it all around the edge of the white cardstock. Then I found some fun spider stamps to keep Arachne company. The sentiment is an old Heidi Grace stamp that is great because it gave me the chance to color it any way I wanted.
Alrighty, one more Halloween card to go... see ya back here manana! :)

Hello, hello!
I came across this Annabel the Witch stamp while cleaning out some drawers in my crafty room this summer and I was determined that she wouldn't go one more Halloween without getting on a card. The original image has Annabel holding a plate with a slice of cake and a fork in her mouth but I didn't know how I could make that work so I did a bit of altering. All I did was wipe away the cake and fork then drew in a slip of paper instead. I like to imagine now that she is taking a break from mopping to study a new spell. And I couldn't resist giving her a little pal who I'm sure is trying to keep Annabel on task but to no avail... LOL! :)
Ok, I've got a long road trip ahead of me today so I should get myself ready. Take care everybody!

Good morning!
Sure there is a whole stack of Halloween images sitting on my desk vying to get on a card this year. And sure, Mizuki here isn't technically a Halloween image but with those skulls on her belt and the way her kimono turns to swirling mist at the hem I always saw her as some kind of sorceress. So in my mind she has always been perfect for a funky Halloween card and now was the time to get it done. I wanted everything about Mizuki to look magical so I played around with a black to white ombre effect on her kimono and also went for a two toned hair-do as well. It doesn't show up well in the photo but her gown is covered in sparkles just like the bats flying in the night sky behind her. Yep, there is definitely something quite magical about Mizuki. :)
Later gators!

Hi guys!
Well this week I feel like I am already ten steps behind. My schedule is so hectic and I feel like I already need a breather... LOL! I didn't have much time for crafting yesterday so I needed a quick image to color up. My Moon from ADFD was sitting on my desk and she was perfect. This image is so simple yet so elegant, if it wasn't for the pops of orange in the ribbons she is practically done in blacks and whites. And I had this old scrap of paper that I have been hanging on to for years which finally found a home and I couldn't be happier with how it sets the scene for Moon. It truly looks like it is a magical night. :)
Alrighty, I'm outta here. Catch ya on the flip side!

TGIF my friends!
I'm keeping today's post short and sweet because I'm running to town this morning and I've got lots to do before I go. This digi stamp called Little Pumpkin Witch captured my heart as soon as I saw it in the ADFD store. There is something kinda vintage looking about this little guy which I really love. I paired him up with another great sentiment from the Superstition set from Papertrey Ink and since I had a gleaming pumpkin I figured the scene needed a black cat as well. So I grabbed a pen and sketched a kitty in my best imitation of the ADFD style, I really like how they are looking at each other now. A sprinkling of wood veneer stars and another Halloween card was done. :)
Hope you have a fun and crafty weekend! See ya on Monday!

Hi-ya!
I've got another card for another challenge to share with you today. This one is for the 'black, orange and purple' challenge over at The Greeting Farm blog. I've had these adorable Monster Beans from the Spooky set inked and ready to go so I decided to color up three, one in each of the challenge colors. Next these little trick or treaters needed a street to walk down so I found the perfect scrap of night sky paper and a glittered up fence sticker, both from Doodlebug, to create a home for them. They all look so happy and proud of their scary Halloween costumes. ;)
Okey dokey, that's all I got... thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you again tomorrow! :)

Hi there!
Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps is hosting a Halloween challenge this week so of course I had to play along. The only hard part was deciding on a stamp to use because I still have a handful in my stash that haven't made it on a card yet. Ultimately I settled on Magical Mathilda because I could totally envision the scene she would live in. I wanted Mathilda to be practicing her magic in some stately manor room and the papers from the new Pebbles Boo collection were perfect for achieving that look. Doesn't that skull print look like some kind of spooky damask wallpaper? Love it. Of course I pulled all my Copic colors from the paper and I even grabbed a couple of fluorescent Copics which hardly ever get used but man did they create the most perfect mystical glow around her, I wish you could see this one in person.
Ok friends, I've got a busy day ahead of me so it's time to sign off. Laters! :)
