Yahoo!! So glad you are here today!!! Why? Because we are celebrating Tiddly Inks’s second blog hop today by holding halloween a little early. 🙂 Boo!!!
We are doing the hop a little differently and are hopping directly from the Tiddly Inks challenge blog. What does this mean? Don’t worry it is simple. 🙂
Link your entry in the Inlinkz box for the blog hop on the challenge blog and then wait until 6 PM when we close the Inlinkz list. Then come on back to the challenge blog and visit all the entries in the Inlinkz list. When you click on each entry, it should open a new window with the blogger’s card and entry…kinda cool, huh? It means we don’t have to direct you to the next blog…. just go back to the challenge blog to keep going through the entries.
The DT members have their amazing cards listed already, but the full blog hop STARTS AT 6 PM CST after eveyone has a chance to list their cards. 🙂 The hop officially ends July 24, and we have planned a party on the PCP page from 6 PM until 10 PM on July 24, so please stop by.
There are some pretty good prizes, whether you participate or or just leave comments, so go take a peek at the full hop details here.
Happy Halloween! 🙂 I hope you enjoy all the magical entries! 🙂
For the card, I created the paper in the background by adding glitter to a pattern I freehanded on the paper. All the solid colored paper came in the same bargain pack–I love Big Lots. LOL The ribbon is just randomly wrapped around the paper to match the ribbon on her waist. The coloring was done and then I glittered over her skirt and wings and a bit in the hair. The sentiment I printed out with a colored edge and then glittered. The whole layout was unplanned and sort of evolved. I tried 3 or 4 other things before I settled on this design. LOL The card is 6×6, so the image is pretty large too…I do color beforehand and then match my paper to the card….I just got lucky to have somewhat matching paper on hand. 🙂
such a wonderful image!!!
This is great Christy!! I love the col blue/grey hues that you have going.
Fabulous card Christy! Love the glitter swirls and the ribbon is so awesome!
Hugs,

The evolution of your card worked very well. I absolutely love her blue hair, and she doesn't look old, like most blue haired people do. Ribbon is a great touch.
