Since Halloween is quickly approaching I thought a Halloween themed card was in order. What I didn't realize is how hard it is to find a Halloween themed charm! I found a blank bezel with an ornate edge detail that I though we be perfect to make my own charm. Easy peasy, right? HA! Somehow I 'misplaced' it and I could not find it anywhere! After looking through my stash and coming to the conclusion that none of my charms would work for this challenge I remembered I had shrink plastic! Even better, I found white shrink plastic in my stash. I stamped this spider with Staz-on Black ink on the white shrink plastic and used a 1" circle punch to cut out the image and my eyelet setter to punch a hole for the twine. Viola, a really cute charm that goes with this image perfectly!
I printed the image on Cryogen white paper. I colored the image with Copic markers and used the Atyou Spica glitter pens on her hat, jewels on her glasses, buttons, and tassels.
