Too Cute to Scare Witches Cauldron

Well hello again gosh 2 posts from me today I am doing well. If you are looking for the Creative Inspirations Challenge then it is the post below. While looking for some challenges that my cards fitted I saw this wonderful sketch by Gayle over at the I Play the Sugar Bowl and although I haven't played for a while ( note to self this must change) just had to go and make a card. I coloured this image a little while ago so just needed to get it all together. Image was coloured with Promarkers. Papers are from my stash and think are Minds Eye. The web is an embossing plate from Fiskers which I then rubbed a white brilliance pad over. Few buttons a Pumpkin 3d sticker and some plaited twine. Sentiment is a stamp but i have gone over with a white gel pen. Few green brads to hold twine and that's the lot.
