Clearly Besotted Halloween card

Hello everyone,

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. I had my birthday on Friday and the celebrations have been going on all weekend, so I am feeling very lucky to have a such a wonderful family and a great bunch of friends. I even had time to sit down and make a card this afternoon when I was banished from my kitchen, so I decided to play along with the current challenge over at Clearly Besotted where Stephanie has asked us to come up with an autumn or Halloween card. I have had Steph's cute little Magician stamp for ages but not had an opportunity to ink him up so I thought he would make a great Halloween card.





I stamped him, coloured him with Copics and then cut him out with the PTI Tipped Tops Dies. All Magicians should sparkle a little, so I added some Wink of Stella glitter to his robe and the broom handle.


I finished the card off with a trail of stars cut with the Simon Says Stamps Confetti die.


As this little chap had not been used before, I'm going to enter him into Darnell's NBUS challenge, and as the theme is Halloween, I will also play along again at Addicted to Stamps and more - Holiday.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

Hugs

A fabulous card, I love the design, especially the placement of the image, and those stars are just perfect.

Ah, Carol, you are a true pal. This post has now enabled me to add TWO new items to my Wish Book which will just add .... lol! I forgot how much I want that PTI die and somehow that didn't get on my list. It's perfect for your fun wizard design and so are those awesome ombre and graduated confetti stars climbing up the side! Cute, cute, cute!! Thank you so much for playing again in my NBUS Challenge!! I'm tickled to hear that your birthday celebrations have gone on all weekend!! Hugs, Darnell
