For this card I decided to look for inspiration from Pintrest. I knew I wanted a circular image ever since I picked up the Witches Dust Halloween Doilys by Recollections at Michael's. They come with 4 designs, 2 in black and 2 in orange.
I found the sketch I wanted to use from here. I kept it pretty simple. The images are from Hampton Art. I really liked having the stars and moons "hang" from the banner. I did move my orange sparkle flower a bit down so you could see the stars and moon mobile. The ivory paper is from Recollections. The orange banner I cut using my Big Shot with a papertry ink banner die out of Colorbox orange paper. The orange flower I made using a QuickCutz nesting flower die out of glitter paper by American Crafts. I colored all the stamped images with my sharpies. I used StazOn black because I knew it would withstand the coloring. The silver brad I added from my stash and it is by The Paper Studio's Spare Parts.
I am not as happy with my coloring job as I would like to be. I am still working on it and someday I am going to have to brave things and start my copic marker collection, but I am not there yet. Coloring things and knowing how to shade and highlight is not one of my best skills.
I also used my envelope punch board to make an envelope for this card to go it. I did have one that would meet the needed dimensions in my stash since my doily and flower peak over the edges. For that I used a some patterned paper from the Tattered and Worn Paper collection by Recollections.
