Hazel the Witch

Good morning bloggers. Wasn't yesterday horrid?.... My garden looks like a swamp and our rotten dog thinks it's great fun to dig holes and then walk mud all though the front room. Apparently Pom's are not diggers according to our vet! I think someone needs to tell Bailey he's not a digger.

Any way on to the real reason that I am posting today and that's because we have a new challenge over at Stampin for the weekend. The challenge this time is Something Spooky. With Halloween just round the corner ther could't be a better opportunity to get out those witch and ghoul stamps and have a play. We are very lucky to have two wonderful sponsors for this challenge and they are...............

And
 

For my offering this time I have attempted a twisted easel card. I have never made one of these cards before and boy are they hard to photograph. I ended up having to tip the card slightly forward to get a picture. I am still not happy but what can you do?...............




The image I have used is Hazel  created by Sylvia Zet which you can buy from Wee Stamps. The papers are My Minds Eye Black Bird.I cut the papers using my Cricut into a scalloped squares. I have used a Memory Box die for the corner flourish and a Marianne die for the leaves. The flower I cut using my Cricut. I think that you may be seeing these flowers quite a lot on my cards. I have had a great time making them from my bag of scraps. The button and ribbon came from my ever growing stash of bits and bob's. Nearly forgot to say I coloured the image using my Copic's.

Thanks for stopping by
Hugs
Jayne

Hi Jayne, This is the nicest Halloween image I have seen, I should have known it was created by Sylvia Zet! What a lovely card you have made with her. I love easel cards and yours is no exception but it puts me off making them because of the photos. They never seem to do my cards justice, so I hear what you are saying anod in agreement. Having said, that I wish my photos came out as good as yuours have! Judy xs
