Got a Black Magic Woman
Today I made a card using part of the Voodoo Child stamped image by artist Charles Bristow. The image comes complete in its own gorgeous frame and a ripe Halloween moon, but on this card I wanted to fussy-cut her and enlarge the moon.
I used some leftover patterned papers I received in a swap, cutting one into a kind of short fence border at the bottom of the card. Some beads and skulls decorate the black wrought-iron of the fence, pieces cut from a lovely bit of lace from the spoils of our own Holley's trip to Turkey. Leftover seed beads decorate the nightscape, as well as a few wisps of shimmery clouds in front of the moon (gotta love Stickles).
I colored Voodoo Child with my Copics (twice), adhering one straight onto the bg paper and another on top of it using dimensional tape. I like the ethereal quality of the scene I created, but next time I need to use a less busy background so my image will really pop out at you (BOO!). Mwahaha!!
