Welcome to Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge Week #33! Holy Cow! 33 weeks! This is probably one of my most favorite, if not THE most favorite sketch Priscilla has done. Well done, Priscilla! You ROCK! For whatever reason, I saw it and knew what I wanted to do. It was really simple to do and took no time at all...but LOOKS super complicated. NOT! Cut, cut, glue, sew, glue, stretch and punch...done! :)
I used The Ball digi stamp as this was originally to be a New Years Eve type card. I didn't want to color her other than her skin. I wanted a card that was Black, White and Silver. Kind of a celebratory, New Years color I guess.
I had to add Stickles. Carolyn got me addicted on Stickles and I can NOT make a card without Stickles. :) I did Paper Tole this image as I airbrushed the background with Copics. If you click on this picture and look at the background, you will see a metallic sheen. I don't know what it is but if you Airbrush with Copic Markers it gives a metallic sheen although coloring with the same markers does not. I don't know...can't explain it...must be MAGIC!
Some pretty little brads I had on hand left over from a previous project.
I was not sure about adding silver ribbon to a brown and black background paper. I was really wanting to use this new Forever Paper I added to the store so I stepped outside my comfort zone and went for it. I love it! Love it, Love it. And yes, I'd do it again! :)Be sure to play along with us this week even though it's a busy week! We have great prizes and with everyone being so busy your chances of winning are greater! I wish everyone a Safe and Very Merry Christmas! Blessings to you and your families this Christmas!

I don't know Sue, that does not look like an easy card to me, LOL. Looks more complicated then you let on!! It turned out stunning - the whole package of colors, ribbon - the works. Season greetings to you, Jane
Wow, those glittery trims on her dress made this gal looks so gorgeous. It's so very cool Sue! Beautifully sewing work and layering job. Love the mono scheme too.

It's hard to believe that you didn't do any coloring on the image other than the skin....It is magnificent. This is just wonderful and I love the stickles. Wishing you joy and happiness during this Christmas season and a very healthy happy New Year to you and your family.
