Card number 3 in the Halloween mini series, a simple yet 'bewitching' card :)
To start with I folded an A5 Stampin' Up! Basic Black card stock to create a C6 size base. Using the designer paper from Echo Park Hocus Pocus collection for the background, cut slightly shorter to create a nice 'wide screen' style boarder.
The owl is from the Clearly Besotted 'Still a Hoot' set and stamped with Stayzon Black Ink. For this card I did not want the tie that comes with this particular owl, so I cut out the center of the stamp so I had the option of with or with out the tie. Of course you can use a wipe/tissue to wipe off the ink that is on the tie if you do not wish to cut your stamps.
I hand drew the hat, coloured the hat and owl with Spectrum Noir Markers.
Colours used for the owl; HB1, HB2 and HB3. I used LG3 and LG1 for the eyes, finishing off with GB6 and GB7 for the beak and feet.
Colours used for the hat; IG7 and IG9. HB1and HB3 where used for the band around the hat to keep with the theme. I used a silver gel pen for the buckle on the band.
The hat was fussy cut out, followed by die cutting the owl ready to place on the designer paper.
The designer paper was adhered to some fun foam to give the whole panel even dimension. Before sticking the owl down I took my clear Wink of Stella to the tree, just adding a kind of 'frosty' effect to the edges. Of course I could not resist also adding some to the owls eyes too. (The below picture shows how slightly shimmery the card is). I glued on the owl and popped up the hat with dimensionals.
Using again the Echo Park Hocus Pocus collection for the sentiments, which are stickers within the pack. These have also been popped up with dimensionals.
To finish off the card I used green and yellow Dovecraft 3D pearl effect to add some varied colour.
Hope you enjoy this card and maybe got some ideas :)
