Black, White and another color with La-La Land Crafts

 Happy Monday all!   Today I am back with another Inspiration Monday post.  This week we are using the colors Black and White and another color (of our choice).   Since my favorite color is Purple, and Halloween is less than a week away- I just knew I needed a Halloween card, with my added color of Purple.

I stamped Witch Marci Rubber Stamp on Neenah Solar White Cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, and cut her with my Scan N Cut.

I colored her with Spectrum Noir Illustrators:

Skin: BG1, BG3, BG5, BG7, BG9

Hat, Dress, Stockings and shoes : CG1, CG3, CG5, CG7, CG9, PL1, PL2, PL3, PL4, White Gel Pen

Hair: PL1, PL2, PL3, PL4, Hair ties- BG1, BG3

Broom: BG1, BG3, BG5, PL1, PL3

I used some black and white patterns from the Love You More Paper Pack from La-La Land Crafts.

I used both the Pierced Scalloped Circles Dies as well as the Stitched Nested Circles Dies with glitter cardstock in Black and Purple.  I used the same glitter cardstock with the Cobweb Die and cut them down the middle and then layered the purple and the black.

I used the Cauldron from the Halloween House Add on Die, with the same Purple Cardstock. 

I then took some purple and white enamel dots and made them look like they were coming up from the cauldron.   I also added to a few other places on the card.

Lastly I used the Stitched Pennants Die to cut the sentiment out, along with the same Purple glitter cardstock.

I used the Daisies on My Mind Stencil, on both the Double Stitched Square die with Spectrum Noir Ink Lagoon and the Double Stitched Rectangles with Spectrum Noir Bordeaux Ink.

I used Colorless Blender and a piece of an old terry cloth bath towel to create a fleece look.

I wanted to try to replicate one of my favorite fleece sweaters and love how it turned out.   

I used colorless blender and a piece of demin on the jeans to add a bit of denim texture to her pants.

I used the Jingle Bells Wreath minus the bells to create a fall look.
