Paperbabe Stamps Challenge #59 ~ Scare Me

Good morning, we have a new challenge on the Paperbabe Stamps blog today, it's a fun scre theme.
I had lots of fun creating this mixed media witch,
Chatting with my daughter Maoleidigh we decided that a witch in a mirror would be much more fitting than in a coffin shape etc so I used an ornate frame and doodled along the edges to give a gold frame effect.
The background was created with neocolors, I didn't think the colours would be so vibrant.
I used the mini Head & torso with loose plait and female face to create my witch. The roses and spider web were from the standard and mini sugar skull sets combined, it was great to have two sizes.
For the witches hat I have created the brim to be dimensional,
I've finished off with a magic bottle, I've heat embossed the bottle and label onto vellum, the bottle itself was on some blue vellum I've had in my stash for many many years and the smoke flume I coloured the back of frosted vellum with distress oxide.

I've put together a slideshow of the steps, it's not easy to create videos at the moment as viewers coming to the house I feel I always have to put the equipment away... not fun, but a few pics should help.


Thanks for stopping by enjoy a wonderfully creative weekend

She is Stunning Kim and quite sultry hee hee!! Fabulous idea to use the frame as a mirror and to bring out the intricate scroll work. Fabulous translucent effect on the bottle, you can see straight through it. I love the vibrancy neocolors give, you are a woman after my own heart!! Really hope I get chance to join in the fun this challenge..& Thank you for sharing this beauty.
