Moonlight Pumpkins!

Hi all, this is my second post today. Please scroll down for my MAWTT Post. I started this card weeks ago!! So thought I'd better finish it off before Autumn and Halloween are actually over!! I've used the image 'Moonlight Pumpkins' and digitally arranged it onto some fab paper from a Set called 'A Dark and Scary Night' - and both are from Stitchy Bear Stamps. I flipped the moon background and lightened it a little as I wanted the moon to look white rather than yellow. 

The image is coloured with Copics and Prismacolor Pencils for dark shading. Lots of Stickles on inside of pumpkins to look like they are lit up, and on candle flame and top of her dress. None of the sparkles really show up though unfortunately. Had trouble with light while photographing. I've added some red gems and silver pearls to make a tiara. Not sure why but the red gems look orange! Trick of the Light!

I really would have liked to add some Halloween embellishements. Maybe a spider or a witch charm but haven't got any in my stash. The Red Roses are from Wild Orchid Crafts and I've added some black leaves that Laurie very kindly gave me (thank you teamie!).  I quite liked the look but then realised you wouldn't get roses in late October? or would you?.... oh well, Halloween is a magical night so I am giving her some Red Roses LOL.

Every time I pick up this card I start singing Phantom of The Opera. Not sure why? She does look a bit like a young Sarah Brightman, so maybe that is why?  hee hee.
