WSC63 Ghoulfriends

I love this set from MFT - Totally Witchin'. I decided to use Beate's Weekend Sketch #63 to try it out. I turned the sketch upwards and took some license with it, but I like how it turned out. I stamped the main image with black Stazon and colored it with markers. Copics would have been great for this, but I don't have the right colors... I matted the main image with black textured card stock. The base of the card is Basic Gray with a layer of Green Galore on top and a piece from Ghostly Greetings DSP on top of that. The vertical piece is also from Ghostly Greetings DSP with a thin layer of black textured paper on the left side. I stamped the cauldron with black ink, and used basic Gray and Lovely Lilac for the swirly steam. I then colored the cauldron and traced the swirls with a Versa Marker. I embossed the cauldron with clear embossing powder, and used heat and stick powder with purple mica glitter on the swirls. Love that effect! I died a piece of white taffeta ribbon with lovely Lilac ink, paired with with some 1/4" black grosgrain ribbon and tied a knot of 1/8" black and white stitched ribbon to make the bow. The sentiment is stamped on Whisper White in Lovely Lilac, punched with the Key Tag Punch and matted with Lovely Lilac. The black mini library clip accents the sentiment. I am going to make a few more of these for my Ghoulfriends...
