Sunflower Night

Hi peeps!  Another Monday upon us.  It's been cloudy and/or raining here nearly every single day.  What has happened to the sun?  Today, I am showcasing my 2nd DT card created for Ching-Chou Kuik's monthly Facebook challenge (theme: Halloween).

https://www.facebook.com/groups/chingchoukuikdigitalstamps/ 

You can win some lovely images if you join in.  Halloween always evokes some wonderful memories for me.  I always sewed my sons' costumes when they were little, and what fun it was to go Trick-or-Treating with them.  Oh, how I miss those times!  Without further ado, here is my card:

This beautiful image is "Sunflower Night" by Ching-Chou Kuik and can be found here:

A closer look of this beautiful image:

I have coloured her with Copic markers and FC Polychromos pencils.  The "Corner Cobweb" and "Ghost Trio" dies are by Memory Box, the "Iron Fence" and "Drippy Goo Edge" punches are by Martha Stewart.  If you look closely, there are no flowers!!!  Very unusual for me!  I wish you a lovely day.  Lori P xx
