Hello, how are you keeping? Hope you survived that storm. Crikey that was scary!
So here is the bingo board:
Our sponsor is the wonderful Crafty Ribbons and our winner
will receive a £10 voucher to spend in their amazing store here.
I always enjoy embellie bingo but it is so hard to choose
just three of all the wonderful things we find in our stash. So I decided to go FULL HOUSE! Gosh!
I decided to stick with all things Halloween and make a card
for a friend of mine whose birthday just happens to be 31st October. Apparently, because of this, a rumour
circulated when she was at school that she was a witch and could put a spell on
anyone she didn’t like. Needless to say
she rather enjoyed the notoriety and only wore black for much of her teenage
life. She never owned a cat though as
she’s allergic but she did have a black goldfish called Starsky (only the over
40’s will know who this is) but unlike a cat I don’t think he could sit on a
broom. So this one’s for her.
I used a digi I won from Digi Stamp Boutique called Halloween Freya and coloured her with
Promarkers. I cut her out using Spellbinders Labels 4 and mounted her into SB
A2 Filigree Delight, which (no pun intended) in turn was mounted onto glitter
card.
The papers are from my stash and the roses are from The
Hobby House. I cut a purple flower using
Heartfelt Creations Sun Kissed Fleur and put a Papermania mini button in the
middle.
The only thing I did not have from the bingo board was a
charm so I had to make my own (oh eck I hear you cry). So I drew a ghost onto
some shrink plastic punched a hole in it and… well…shrank it. He is so dinky! I love him! Not scary at all!

| BOO! |
So there you are, a witchy card for a lady born on Halloween!
But do pop over to the Cutie Pies blog to see the amazing inspiration created by my
teamies. They are fab!
See ya!

That is a lovely card Jane, great job with the Full House! The filigree background is beautiful! I bet your friend will love it. I confess I was more of a David Soul fan myself and the saddest thing is I only seem to remember how tight their jeans were (naughty me!!). Hope your little girlies weren't scared too much by that awful night. I apologise for not visiting as often as I should...I'm still too thick to work out how I get to see your lovely creations!! xx
ReplyDeleteOoh Ooh, just realised I can now be a follower!! Yay!! xx

This is my type of Halloween card (I don't do scary) and I love it. You've used a great digi - I love the expression on her face - and your ghost charm is fab. You did brilliantly at getting all the bingo items on your card, it looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining in the fun at Crafty Calendar Challenge and good luck.
