Happy Halloween!

Hi HH & OCS Fans!
The Design Teams over on the One Crazy Stamper and High Hopes Blogs are using Fall/ Halloween themed stamps to get you inspired!! "Ghost Trio" is one of my favourite HH stamps for Halloween! There's something about their expressions that just endear them to me!
I decided to make a night sky background for them using a variety of Tim Holtz Distress Inks. I fussy cut the image out using my Brother Cut N Scan and popped them up using some foam squares. The sentiment is also from High Hopes and is called "Block Happy Halloween". I also jumped out of my comfort zone and used Prismacolor Pencils and Gamsol to colour with. I still have to practice but loved how my image turned out!
I added some splatters to the night sky using a paint brush and some Pico Black Embellisher and some Copic Opaque ink.
Here you can see I also used some gold splatters using a gold glitter pen and water. I was trying to mimic stars in the sky.
Prismacolor Pencils:
Dark Brown, Chocolate
Orange, Cadium Orange Hue, Jasmine
10% Warm Grey, Violet, Spring Green

Happy Stamping!
