Halloween Tilda Gift Set

Hi All~~~~~

Not feeling very well--think I may be getting a sinus infection : ( Yuckkieee!!!

So instead of cleaning today I decided to do something I really enjoy :)  CRAFTING!!!!
In my last post  -which was Boss's Day Card-- I shared that I would get pic of my boss's reaction----well here it is

Now for A Halloween Set!!!!!!

Used this sketch at  JM

Halloween card using Magnolia Sitting Witch Tilda which I got in the sweetest blog candy from Trisha--T-Bear's Touch ~~Thanks Trish I love it all--- MWAHHH!!!!

Memmory Box Twilight papers--aren't they gorgeous!!! 

 Sentiment is a freebie by Sentiments4You which I found on the Totally Tilda Special Challenge Blog--Thanks Lynne!!!!

Viva Decor Kiwi Pearl Pen added corner accents of pearls--little hard to see

This is inside of card--Cat is Magnolia Doohickey die

Used the cut out portion of dp to add shadow with Copic pen C2 before adhering cat to card-- used like you would use a stencil :)

Tilda colored with Copics --added yellow stickles to hairtie, hat band, ruffle on dress and rope on broom.

After coloring used my colorless blender pen to draw or dilute color to give vintage look. I really like what the colorless pen did esp. with her hair :)))

Softened edges with TH Scattered straw ink with blender tool :)

More Magnolia doohickey dies--sponged edges of these beautiful flowers with TH vintage photo ink.

The dp paper under the image was given shine with thick embossing powder--3 coats--turned out very glassy :)  Just what I wanted!!!
