Ink Smooshed Bewitched Card
Hello there crafty friend! Crystal here sharing one more Halloween card. I couldn't help myself. It's my favorite holiday after Christmas. I inked up one of my favorite witches from the Hocus Pocus Big Kit.
So, I've been trying to ink up my neglected stamps, or at least ones that I haven't inked up before and I was surprised after I made this card that I have in fact inked up this cutie before. Haha... she's definitely a fave! Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the Hocus Pocus big kit on the website. But if you'd like to add this sweet stamp {plus all of the others included in the kit} to your collection, you can check out the Farmers Market and submit a request via email... maybe she'll be available for the next Farmers Market. Fingers crossed!
I inked up this sweet witch and all of the accessory images with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them up with Copic markers. I fussy cut them on the line and then I used a Memento Tuxedo Black marker to color the edges of my fussy cutting. This makes the fussy cutting look nice and neat. I adhered Anya to the cauldron and the frog to Anya and then I popped them up on the card with foam tape.
Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:
Skin: E000, E00, E11
Hair: B000, B00, B91
Hat: N2, N4, N6, YR20, YR15, YR68, V12, V06, V17
Dress: N2, N4, N6, C0, C1, C3, V12, V06, V17
Boots: N2, N4, N6
Cauldron: YR20, YR15, YR68, N2, N4, YG11, YG23
Frog: YG11, YG23, G07
Stars: Y11, Y15, Y35
I inked smooshed a fun background using Uncharted Mariner and Villainous Potion Distress Inks. I also spattered the background with some Villainous Potion Distress Ink. I dried the background with a heat tool and then trimmed it to 4 x 5-1/4". The card stock was pretty warped from the ink smooshing so I adhered it to a white A2 top fold card base and then tucked it under my mat to let the glue cure for a bit. Doing this made the background nice and flat.
I stamped the fun 'Bewitched' sentiment directly on the card to finish it off. Now I did plan to add glossy accents to the glasses but I forgot and took my photos. Oops! I think I probably still will do that. I'm so happy to add another fun Halloween card to my stash! I sure hope I've inspired you to get inky!
Inky Hugs,
Crystal
