Something's Brewing

Welcome!

I must admit that most of my cards run toward the CAS or the quick and easy side, but every now and again I like to surprise myself and get a little extra involved.  Today's card is probably one of my most involved card ever.  But I was having so much fun with it I started looking for ways to make it even more involved.

I started my card by stamping a white piece of card stock with our Magic Potion Shelf using black ink and masking it.  I stamped out Wood Grain image vertically with black ink for my paneled walls.  I couldn't find the right shade of brown in my marker collection so I ended up leaving the mask in place and using a small stamp pad and dragged it up and down to color the walls.  After removing the mask I used a darker brown marker to fill in the spaces between the boards.  I used markers to color the potion shelf and then attached it to a folded black card and set it aside.

Next I stamped our Country Window on a separate piece of card stock and removed the "glass" from the windows with a blade and colored it.  The sky outside started as a scrap of card stock that I added a circle mask to and then sponged with blue and purple, removed the mask and colored the moon.  I added the white dots for stars with a pen and attached it to the back of the windows.  When I  tried to attach it to my card I found that it was a little too big so I had to do a little creative cutting with the blade around the 2 tall bottles on the shelf so I could put the curtains behind the bottles.

For my table I stamped the wood grain on scrap and after coloring it, I cut 2 small pieces for the table legs and used the rest for the table top.  I stamped both our new Bubbling Beaker and Witch Ya Greeting on scrap and after coloring I fussy cut the beaker and die cut the greeting and attached them.

Thanks so much for stopping by,
Sue
