Here's the amazing Electric Evelyn, in BIRTHDAY FORM!
I colored her up with my Copic markers and added some graphic 45 papers.  I used my Cricut to letter the sentiment and my distress Oxide inks to add that blue haze around it.  Then I guess on a bunch of flowers from Wild orchid Crafts and that's about it! Fun huh?

I used black soot distress ink and a sponge to get the cloud effect in the background of little miss Witchy-Poo here. I colored her up with my Copics and cut her out using a stitched circle die from Gina Marie Designs. I even added a few glittery Nuvo Drops! Oh so fancy!

I decided that I couldn't go any longer without showing you guys the Witch I began coloring on a color along not so long ago.... so here's the finished card! 
I use a TON of Stickles on this card, and it's a shame you can't see it in the photo, but this thing glitters like there's not tomorrow... the background is made with the distress inks you see in the photo and then i used a flat paint brush to paint streaks of glittery Stickles behind this sweet little witch. The papers are from Doodlebug.
