New Release - Hocus Pocus Witches with Polkadoodles

Hello and happy Wednesday everyone!  I hope that you are having a lovely day.

The high winds have returned here again with a vengeance - it always seems to happen just as our olives are ready for harvesting!  That means once again there are lots already on the floor around the trees....hopefully the winds will die down enough so we can start to pick over the coming weekend, and get them to the olive mill for pressing.

Todays card has been created using images from the Hocus Pocus Witches collection (the witch on her broomstick) and the Autumn Halloween Treats collection (the moon and cloud).
 


In my graphics software I started by resizing the images to create a panel for a 5 x 7 card, layering the moon and cloud image behind the witch  - I use Serif CraftArtist2 but there are many other programs that you can use including Microsoft Word and Paint and its really easy to do.

This was then printed out onto alcohol marker friendly card and coloured using my promarkers for a single layer design.

I added the sentiment towards the top of the design overlapping the moon for added interest.  I used a metallic pen to add some sparkle to the sentiment once the design was complete.

Once this was complete I then carefully blended a couple of distress inks over the panel to give it a spooky look.

Then design was then adhered to the card blank with a panel of coordinating paper and layers of black cardstock.

The finishing touch was some super sparkly confetti and a little glossy accents to the centre of the flower of the witches hat.

I have a very special DT discount code that you can use for all your shopping on the Polkadoodles online shop at checkout use WENDYJ-10 and you will get 10% of your entire purchase (not in conjunction with other discount codes!)


I hope that you like my card today and you'll be back for my final card on Halloween  from the new Hocus Pocus Halloween Collection by Polkadoodles.



Hasta luego ๐Ÿ‘‹ 


Enjoy the rest of your day !
