Yesterday I had every intention of making birthday cards. Somehow I ended up grabbing Halloween stamps! Imagine that!! hee hee hee
I wanted to do Heather's "share your spark Friday" challenge & Splitcoaststampers Mondays Technique Lovers Challenge. I decided to combine the two. Heather's Spark Friday challenge is create something with embossing - any kind of embossing. FUN FUN FUN!! I love embossing! SCS TLC184 challenge is to use a technique called Black Magic. This one is new to me. Basically you dip your colored pencil in OMS(Gamsol) and color your image that is stamped with White Ink on Black Paper.
I did the Black Magic technique with my A Muse ingredients stamp. Everything else stamped is embossed. I also embossed the entire piece of punched out drippy goo with Vivid Green EP. The witches cauldron image is colored with pencils and gamsol. Shading done with Copic marker.
When I was done making the card...I thought it was a little over-kill. Hummm....oh well! I still had fun. I still think it turned out pretty cool.
