My Favorite Things - August Release Countdown Day 4

Welcome to my blog and Countdown Day 4 of the August 10th release at My Favorite Things.   My card today gives you a peek at the new Tiddly Inks illustrated stamp set Sweet Little Spell and Spooky House Die-namics.

To create the card I first prepared a panel using the Stitched Rectangles STAX Die-namics and ink blended using Distress Oxides in Fossilized Amber and Black Soot, I went on to distress this with water and paint splatters for a slightly spooky but mostly magical sky.   This panel was adhered to an A2 white panel of cardstock and attached to the card base.

I die cut the Spooky House from Black Licorice cardstock as well as the grass portion using Grassy Fields Die-namics and I softened the blackness with a foggy affect created by ink blending a little White Pigment Ink.   These elements were then backed with dimensional foam tape and applied to the background panel.

I stamped the image from Sweet Little Spell and then coloured her with Copic markers.   Here is my colour palette:-

Hat, Cloak and Cat - 100, C9, C7, C5, C3

Cloak Lining - YR27, YR24, Y26

Boots - V09, V17, V, 15

Skin - E04, E11, E21, E00

Hair - E44, E42, E0000

Cheeks - R00, R20, R21

Points were highlighted with a white gel pen and then I used the coordinating die-namics to die-cut the image.   She was backed with foam tape and adhered.

The sentiment was stamped with Versamark Ink and heat embossed in white on a black sentiment strip that I then blended with a little more of the white pigment ink.  This was applied with foam tape.

The final touch was applying some pretty 4 point star embellishments for some subtle twinkle.
