Time for another attempt at the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge. I was so thrilled last week when my card was chosen for a Top Mouse Award along with Marybeth Lopez and Michelle Bala! This week I created another Halloween card and brought in my Cameo to assist me with a spider web background. I can't colour, never could. They say that to develop creativity in children that you should let them colour outside the lines if they want, no problem for me! When I was little I wanted my colouring to look like my older sisters, so I would get her to colour it for me! She was 10 years older so of course her colouring was better. I am one of 5 children and my family to this day will tell you that I am the creative one. That may be true, but I still can't colour. So Cicely may not be perfect but I am sure this is the best fussy cutting I have ever done--all limbs are accounted for.
I am also submitting this card to the Cameo Spotlight Challenge #6 which is to create a project for Halloween using your Cameo. The spider web I had downloaded a long time ago but never used. Love the way the Cameo cut the intricate designs.
