Too Cute To Spook

Here is a card I made recently for the Garden Girl gallery at Two Peas.  I was trying to come up with a sentiment for it, and after looking at this group of ghosties, I knew just what to do.  They really ARE too cute to be spooky in any way.  They remind me of Casper the Friendly Ghost from when I was a kid.  :)


I came up with a good little trick for creating cheek color with Copics!  Instead of coloring directly onto my image, I dabbed a bit of marker onto my pinkie & then quickly pressed it onto their cheeks.  Voila!  Your finger is dyed for a couple of days, but at least it's a pretty color.  ;)

The word "spook" was originally black, but it kind of got lost in the background, so I topped it with sparkly orange glitter.

Here are the products I used for my card:
