Trick or Treat Ghoulie

Starving Artistamps is sponsoring this week’s challenge at 2 Sketches 4 You. I played along using an image from one of the latest releases, the DoodleFactory Ghoulies stamp set.

I colored my Ghoulie girl, Cort, with Copic markers and cut her out. I created a spooky scene for her on the sketch’s large panel. The base is a piece of pale lavender cardstock that kind of looks like an eerie nighttime sky. I added felt clouds and an embossed crescent moon at the top and some torn paper at the bottom for the ground. The colored image is attached to the image with foam tape. I stamped the “trick or treat” sentiment at the bottom of the panel in black ink.

For a spooky accent, I used a spider web strip, punched with a big Martha Stewart border punch, along the left edge of the scene. A piece of lavender seam binding tape is tied around the cardfront for a feminine finishing touch.
