Today's post is my HALLOWEEN-THEMED, NON-CARD design.  It features Maggie (who has decided to replace her summer season strawberry with a couple of carved jack-o-lanterns).  I chose to decorate a cardboard box in which one might (if not too late) find baking.

Details:

• stamps-HUMBLE PIE'S Maggie, holding HUMBLE PIE'S jack-o-lanterns, sentiments are Amy R.'s Autumn Collection (C.C.Designs)

Maggie was inked-up with StazOn Jet Black, stamped on Fabriano 140 lbs cold-pressed watercolour paper and coloured with both Reeves Watercolour Pencils and Nicholson's Peerless Transparent Watercolour Sheets.  Her jack-o-lanterns were printed on the Fabriano paper and painted using Nicholson's PT Watercolour Sheets.  I added Judy Kins' Diamond Glaze to Maggie's hair and eyes to provide a little shine.  Studio G (yellow) Glitter Glue was added to the eyes and mouths of the pumpkins.  Some sparkle was also created by using Patina Stickles on the pumpkin stems and vines.  The sentiments were stamped with VersaFine Onyx Black.

• patterned dp-Making Memories Spook Alley collection
