A Great Night For Fright


I sure hope it's not too early to start posting Halloween projects -- I couldn't wait to play with JustRite's new Happy Halloween set! The six centers and borders are too darling! I pulled out some Halloween paper from last year, The Girls' Paperie Toil & Trouble. Coloring is with Copic markers and Prismacolor pencils. The black medallion is die-cut with a Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Doily Accents Shapeabilities die. Oh, and boo-boo alert: I forgot to color the belt buckle! Please tell me I'm not the only one who does that ... forgets to color some aspect of an image? I did actually go back and color the buckle and would have re-taken the photo, but I ended up botching the hat while adding some shading. Seriously ... I haven't colored that far out of the lines since kindergarten! Good thing it's a super quick image to color. I can whip up a new one -- right after my overdue playdate with Barbie and friends :)

Hope you're having a fab day!

This is the nicest Halloween card I have ever seen. Your colouring of the image is awesome. I also like the nesties you used--it really makes your card pop.
