Slimline Gnome Witch
I stamped, coloured and fussy cut the new Gnome Witch Rubber Stamp that's part of today's Whimsy Stamps mini release.
I used the following copic colours:
Cat: C9, 7, 5, 3
Skin: E04, 21, 00
Hair: V17, 15, 12
Clothing: C9.7.5; YG09, 17, 05
Broom: E27, 21; YR27, 23, 21
Anyhoo, back to this card which has a whole heap of ink blending. I started off with a panel large enough for the new Slimline Wobbly Windows Die and inked it up using Twisted Citron, Squeezed Lemonade, Carbed Pumpkin, Worn Lipstick, Dusty Concord, Chipped Sapphire and a touch of Black Soot. I then added splatters, yes you read that right, splatters (they are s-l-o-w-l-y growing on me though they still mess with my "I don't like messy" vibe lol.) I splattered with water then my new favourite Brusho SprinkleIt in copper, This. stuff. is. fabulous! The shine once dry is just fab, I think you can see it in the pic below.
I die cut the panel once it was dry and popped it on a black card base with foam tape. I stamped the sentiment on the centre window then adhered these flat to the card base. I finished off with some die cut bats from the Bats and Bubbles Border Die Set. These dinky lil' bats are just perfect additions to a Halloween card.

Polka Dot Pals Beau
I started off by inking up a panel of white card stock with Distress Inks. I didn't use Bristol Smooth because I wanted more of a watercoloured look and plain card stock grabs the ink quickly so I managed to get the textured look easily. I used Stormy Sky, Picked Raspberry, Tattered Rose and a touch of Scattered Straw. Once it was dry I trimmed it to fit on to the scalloped frame from the Quilted Rainbow Inlaid Die which I had cut from white card. I used one of the bunting banners from the Slimline Bunting Borders dies to make a perch for her to sit on, and used one of the Everyday Banner Digi Sentiments to help balance the card.
I coloured beau with copic markers:
Skin E04, 11, 21, 00, 000, R20
Eyes B97, 91
Hair E27, 25, 50
Blouse and shoes E43, 41, 40
Dungarees and hat V06, 04, 01

Postage Window Die
Whimsy Stamps have a new mini release, and this fun Postage Window Die and Halloween Expressions Stencil is part of the release.
I started off by inking up a panel of Bristol Smooth card stock with Distress Oxides in Squeezed Lemomade, Carved Pumpkin and Worn Lipstick. I applied the ink heavily so the colours would really pop. Once it was dry I cut out one the Postage Window die from making paper and fixed this on to the panel. I then inked through the Halloween Expressions Stencil with Memento black ink and a tiny make up brush. I stamped the "Boo" a few times to fill in the blanks. I then die cut the Postage Die from black card stock and adhered in place.
I then wanted something for the middle of the card so dug out the Build a Pumpkin Patch Die Set and coloured a couple of pumpkins with copic markers before stencilling on the expressions. I used YR18, YR16, Y15, Y11, YG09, YG17, YG03
