Halloween Card

Sorry this is late today but I couldn't figure out how to do something and thankfully my friend, Danni helped me (thanks Danni!). One of the things I really want to start doing is to create things once I see stuff on other blogs that inspire me. One of the blogs I check regularly is Heather's Blog. On Monday she always posts a sketch. Normally, I just look at it and make a note to try it. Well this week, I tried it. My version is a little different but that's what I love about sketches. It gives you a place to start and you make it your own. I'm in the Halloween mood so I used one of my favorite TAC stamp sets to create this card.


I really liked how it turned out and I'm so loving my Copics! I have a lot to learn yet but playing sure is fun! The other thing I like to do is use scraps. I have bins next to my desk with all my scraps organized by color. When I go to create a card I always go to my scraps first. That's why a sketch usually changes for me...I want to use my scraps! The only bad thing is I'm not very good at making multiple cards of the same design. Each one of my cards is usually a one of a kind :)

Thanks for looking!

Supplies used: The Angel Company Trick or Treaters Stamp set, KI Memories Pattern Paper, Copic Markers

I am a TAC Demonstrator so feel free to contact me if you'd like to purchase the stamp set. Also, I sell a lot of my cards so if you are ever interested in purchasing my cards, just email me for details.
