Boo-tiful Dreamer

Hello.  Welcome.  Feeling inspired this week by Liz Borer over at PaperArtsy.  But where to begin!!!  Such big complex projects.  Decided to start here................

The stamp is PaperArtsy Winter Wonderland Plate 6.  Love that lady and Liz made her look totally different with her colouring so thought I'd give it a go.  No witchy hat but I did colour her hair with my violet wink of stella brush.  Maybe you can see some of the spangle?  The background is Sizzix Poison embossing folder embossed onto EK Success amethyst metal sheet.  The letters were cut from the same sheet using Sizzix Ducky Wucky embosslits.  All mounted on black glitter card.

So, is she bootiful or poison?

Very atmospheric, that purple and black combination really transforms any image into one suitable for halloween. Great project.

She is absolutely beautiful, Gail. I love "Wink of Stella," but it doesn't show up when I scan my projects...haven't tried to photograph it yet. Love the metal embossing and the addition of the great color! My kind of art!

I was amazed by the shading liz achieved on the face of that girl too. Good on you for tackling it. I'd love to see a video of how she does that and the baby wipe mottled effect. Loving your spooky card
