Cruisin' Witch



Hey there! I made a card for this month's OCL Sketch. You're all welcome to play....and if you make something and upload it by September 25th, you'll be entered to win something! {smile}

I used my OCL Holiday Cruiser set for my card. The main matted panel is up on foam tape and it's faux stitched with my piercing tool and a black Spica glitter pen. The image was colored with Prisma Pencils and blended with gamsol.

Speaking of faux stitching....I asked my DH for a Janome Sew Mini for Christmas so I can add some REAL sewing on my cards. I have no idea how to sew but I've seen a couple great tutorials so hopefully I can learn. Seriously, the last time I used a sewing machine was when I was in middle school and we had to make a pillow and a baseball t-shirt (both of which came out butt ugly, let me tell ya!). So anyway, more on that in a few months.....

Here's the inside of the card. The Trick or Treat sentiment is also from my OCL Holiday Cruiser set:

Your card is so fun. I saw that stamp set and now want to see you make some more cards using the other drivers. You better watch out because the sewing becomes addictive once you start.
