For this months challenge...
"Halloween / Autumn"
I chose 'Lollipop jar' from Patties Creations.
Thought I would use this everyday image a little bit differently!
So.. I started with the basic lollipop jar - I made the card shape by printing off the jar
and using it as a template to draw around on my card.
I doodled some eyes on each of the lollipops.
(I tried to vary the eyes as much as i could. )
I coloured the lollipops with my alcohol pens
in traditional halloweeny colours: orange, green and purple
and used all my 5 shades of greys (promarkers) to colour the lid
I found some bakers twine, to which I threaded on a little tag,
which I die-cut and lettered myself.
I also drew some simple little bats, and coloured them black (obviously!)
and 3d foamed them to the 'lid' of the card.
I'm quite pleased with this card, and think I will send it
to my little nephew, for Halloween.
***Pattie also has a "candy corn jar" in her digi shop...
I chose not to use that image, as in England, we don't have candy corn...
Infact, I'm not really sure what its like..never had it!***
