I created a little card to play along with the Waltzingmouse Stamps Sketch Challenge this week. Here is my card:
Happy Halloween Hat
And here is the inspiration sketch:
I created the hat from black cardstock and embossed with a swirly embossing folder. The brim was cut from a strip of black cardstock that I cut with a pinking border die. Cream lace was added above the brim. I stamped the focal image from Gracie at Halloween in black in and colored in with some Copics. I am a bit of a neophyte when it comes to the Copics, so please forgive my coloring. I punched the image with a 1 3/4" circle punch and backed it with an olive pinking circle and adhere it to the lace. This finished hat was adhered to a simple base of kraft, black and orange paper with pop dots.
Hope you like my take on this week's sketch. Thanks for stopping by!
