Spooky! - I ♥ Promarkers



Morning bloggers :)

Today sees the start of a new challenge at I ♥ Promarkers and our theme this week is 'Spooky'.  We are sponsored by one of our regular and most fabulous sponsors Joanna Sheen who is offering the winner a £10 voucher to spend online.

I followed the fab sketch over at Saturated Canary and the gorgeous image is Witches Cauldron. The spiderweb background was cut out with my digital die-cutter (and it took blimmin ages!) lol, and the bats were also cut on that.  The flowers are WOC, charm and ribbon from stash.

I am entering this card in the below competitions:

Moving Along with the Times - Spooky Halloween
CES Challenges - Gorjuss Pretty girls
Really Reasonable Ribbon - Halloween
Emerald Faeries - Punches and Dies
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes
Simon Says Stamp - Sparkle and Bling
Allsorts Challenge - Flowers

Thanks so much for looking at my blog today, and good luck to everyone in the challenges,

    Stunning spiderweb which really belnds into that edging beautifully & I love the way that it draws my eye towards the curls of her hair. Just something about the curviness of the patterns in the punching & die-cutting. Those fluffy flowers accent beautifully too & I love the colour combination with the soft inking of the image panel edges.
