This is a great digital image from Beccy Muir called Haunted Birdhouse. This image really spoke to me because I wasn't in the mood for a "cute" image and yet I get tired of all the "blood & gore" type things you often see for Halloween (not in stamps per se, but I think you know what I mean). I thought this image was a great happy medium - neither of the other two categories, but just a little eerie/spooky.
I was also thinking that digital stamps were a great way to go to collect some great images that you only use once a year. Don't get me wrong, I have a bunch of wooden & clear mount stamps for all the different holidays sitting around here. But then I have to find somewhere to pack them away after the holiday is over. With the digital stamps I can get bunches and bunches of great "once a year" images and I don't even have to pack them away when the holiday is over! Yay!
And I love how this card came out! I'm no expert with alcohol markers by any means; but I just dig in and try my best. I really take my time and keep working at it until I get it as close to the way I want it as I can. I know some people /artists can zip through a scene like this lickety split. Not me lol! So I'm always thrilled when it ends up coming out the way I had imagined it - Love it!

Until next time,
