Ooh, Ooh Witchy Woman

good morning to you all! I hope you are having a really great week. Mine is going much better than the last couple of weeks! My new computer at work is all updated and running like a top. I have been manually backing up my files rather than letting the automatic back up run so if we ever have another crash I'll be able to locate my stuff lots easier. I'm really glad we got the new computer instead of waiting for the warranty people to fix the old one because I'd still be waiting and getting further and further behind!

I have another Halloween card to show you today. This one uses a very cute little witch riding on her broom with her pet bat called Up For A Ride, and it was drawn by the ever talented Jackie Matthews. I really love Jackie's images; they are all so cute!

I'm not completely happy with my coloring on this. It looked much better in my mind than it turned out to look on paper, but I still think it's too cute to toss. I colored with Copic markers and then chalked the moon and the night sky. I really need to practice more coloring things black, and the dark purple on her cape is so dark that it blends in a little too much with the black.

When I printed the image, I printed two copies so I could cut the clouds out and pop them up. I used a little bit of yellow stickles on the star on her hat.

Yesterday I pointed you to Vicki's fabulous card, and I thought it would be fun to post my favorite card by the Squigglefly design team every day, so today I want to direct your attention to Maria Matter's blog to see the beautiful card she created with Lynne Stansbery's new From Tiny Acorns image. You can see it HERE.

I hope something makes you laugh out loud today, and thanks for looking!
