BLACK OUT Challenge at "A Day for Daisies"

Oh WOW! I was browsing around at the adorable images last night HERE at "A Day for Daisies". Such sweet images! Well, I noticed that there's a challenge going on until Nov. 4th. It's called the "Black Out challenge". Use lots of black in your design. You will find the challenge here. Tammy is also offering this fabulous little witch as a freebie for the challenge!She's so cute that I couldn't resist coloring her up and designing with her. So....I was up late last night playing with this little cutie. For this card I stamped some gray cardstock with black webs and bats (which are mostly covered up with the rest of the design). Then I stamped some black cs with some white webs. The stamps I used are oldies from Great Impressions. The other DPs are from DCWV. I had some different shades of purple cs in my collection of scraps that I used for just a little color. I cut some small triangles out of my scraps, sponged the edges, and used these to spell out "Witchy" in black glitter. Attached them to some black thin ribbon and hung this up in kind of a semi-circle. I added some diamond gems also from the stash to give a little more bling to the card.
Little Witchy was colored with Copics and Gel pens. I couldn't resist giving her the freckles and red hair. I love freckles on children! Below is the inside of the card. I used the "rubba" spider web and sponged the edge of the white cs and put a piece of light purple behind.


The hardest part was to wait til morning daylight to take my pictures. Now that fall has hit, the picture taking times are a little more limited, and here in Michigan our days are going to be more and more gray, but today is a Gorgeous sunny perfect day! Hope you enjoyed this post. Thanks for visiting!
