The Littles Halloween Treat Box

It's been a very busy day for us with Trick or Treat'ers but all is gone quite now and I have finally got a minute to post this Halloween Treat box featuring The Littles Frankie, Witchy and Mummy from Stamping Bella. 

First let me share with you something I saw earlier tonight. I decided I was going to try the Cheesecake Factory's avocado egg rolls so I found a recipe (which probably is nothing like the Cheesecake Factory recipe but it claims to be so we'll go with it!) and I needed to go to the store to get limes. I was in this same store yesterday and as you walked in the door, it was wall to wall Halloween merchandise. This evening I walked in and it was wall to wall CHRISTMAS!! 😲😲😲 I kid you not! Suddenly everything had gone from black and orange, to green and red! Geez!! 

Anyway. as it's still Halloween, this is my treat box..

The candy is long gone, but I did manage to stash one twirl bar before the kiddos sniffed it out. 😛

Littles Haunted House Scene

Hi everyone! Today I am sharing a I made for the Copic Europe DT, featuring the Littles Haunted House scene, by Stamping Bella

I started this image as I start all my images, and that is with colouring any characters, specifically the skin.

The colours are E00, E11, E04

For the green skin I used YG21, YG23, YG25

I gave the witch purple hair using V12, V15, V17

Dress: YR12, YR14, YR16, YR18

I coloured some of the windows with light in them. 

Y13, Y15, Y17

For the Mummy I used N1 and N3 and blended them together using the colourless blender. 

On the wood I used E21, E33 and E27

For the roof  I started with N3 and then laid down some N5 for the shadows. At the very end I applied N7 in the darkest areas. 

I gave the house a wooden effect using E41, E42, E43 and pulling the lines in from the outside edge towards the middle. 

For the window and door frames I used E21 and E33 and then added some shadow with N3 and N5

To complete the image I coloured everything else in black, using N1 through to N7

For the background I started with the ground, laying down some W1 and then building up with W3 and W5. 

Keep layering the colours until you're happy with how it looks. 

I decided to add a moon to the night sky, behind the bat, so I drew a circle with B000 as a guide for the sky. 

As with the ground, I started the sky with the lightest colour B02 and then added darker colours to build up depth - B23, B24, B26

Finally, for the moon, I used Y00, Y11 and some YR23 to add lines. I also applied some Y11 into the night sky around the moon, going back in with the blues to build up the colour again. 

Thanks for dropping by today
