My card this week is by far my favourite Halloween card that I did this year - I just love those crazy birds!
I started off by adding some texture paste through the Tim Holtz Halloween layering stencil to create the tone-on-tone background. I then coloured my Crazy Bird (I stamped him twice to give me the layers) and a few Halloween-themed Crazy Things with Copics. I cut the bird out a couple of times with the matching dies - they give such a great close cut - any I fussy cut the accessories (I didn't get the dies for those!). I pieced everything together with some foam tape - I love the added dimension on the eyes, wings and beak - onto the card front.
I will link this card up at a couple of places:
- Inkspirational where they are looking for "cute" Halloween cards - he is definitely more cute than scary!
- Fusion Card Challenge where the sketch is "trick or treat"-y
So join the fun - create a spooktacular card and link up at AAA Cards!
Thanks so much for visiting me!
