Never Judge a Witch by her Hat (The Paper Shelter image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

This Halloween witch has to be one of my favourite Halloween images, she's just gorgeous isn't she? You can find her at The Paper Shelter. I've used her before (a long time ago, I think my colouring has improved a little since then) so I've added it below. For this card I used my oxide inks to create the background using the Twisted Citron for the "glowing" areas. I mucked up some of the "bubbles" because I used a stencil when I should have done them freehand like the ones on the right side but this is how we learn isn't it hehe.

I made this shaker card for one of my long time best friends and popped it in her mail box. She texted me that night and we made a date for a night out.

The eyes are watching you!

Hi Crafty Friends,

Inspired by other crafters doing something similar I had to give this a go too as I have loads of "eyes" in my stash hehehe. I inked behind the eyes so they all look like different coloured monsters.

3 Little Witches (Saturated Canary image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I am loving creating Halloween cards this year, especially since I've bought almost all the Tim Holtz oxide inks, creating backgrounds with them is so much fun! The fun little witches are from Saturated Canary. I also added some black Jessie flourishes from Flourish with a Bling - I cut them up so they just poked out the sides of the image, perfect for Halloween projects. They're on sale at half price at the moment along with everything in the store during October only, click HERE to go check out our store.
