This month the Waltzingmouse Blog Party has a color theme. The main colors are purple, orange and black with our choice of neutrals. Or course, they work great for Halloween and I had a chance to use one of my favorite ever Halloween images--Cicely at Halloween. I've been trying to focus on more simple designs so I cut a circle out of some patterned paper and stamped Cicely. My main emphasis was the paper piecing! I did color her face, the stockings and her gloves with Copics but everything else is cut from paper. I love this technique but must admit it is a bit time consuming! Not sure if it shows up well but I used Spica pens in clear and peach to add glitter to the hat buckle and the wand tip.
There is always a huge variety of entries so you will want to be on your way to see everyone else's blog. Click HERE to join the party!
Have fun!!!!
