Modifying a stamp

~ stamprgrl

This witch is for “Two Old Bats Challenge“, remember we are making Halloween cards all year long. JOIN US!!!

This is my final card and I love it so much! This little witch went through a makeover! I knew I wanted to use this Dina Wakley stamp, but I also knew I wanted her to be a witch. Let me show you the original stamp and the modifications I did to her.

I used a STABILO ALL pencil, which is a pencil that reacts with water. I stamped her very lightly with a black water reactive ink so I could blend my changes with the Stabilo All pencil. I defined her nose added some curly hair and of course a witch’s hat.

I used a water soluble crayon to scribble the background and then added water to smooth it out. I love how vibrant this crayon color stayed.

Supplies for this card: Stamps (Dina Wakley), Watercolor Crayon (Derwent), Watercolor Pencil (Stabilo All), Happy Halloween sign (Target), Glitter (Distress Walnut Stickles), Pattern Papers (Target (the Halloween one) and unknown), Glitz (unknown)
