Putting It Together
I recently bought several sets of Spectrum Noir's new Illustrator markers while Micheals had a 50% coupon. I used them and the few Copic markers I have to colour Gretchen for this project.
Because I wanted to use alcohol markers on this project, I stamped the image on Xpress-It with Memento.
I coloured up Gretchen using Spectrum Noir and Copic markers, adding Gelly Roll and a retired Stampin' Up marker to the scythe.
Because the Xpress-It is not very heavy and I wanted to fussy cut the image and have her stand stiff, I backed her with some scrap thick cardstock (some that I had a boo-boo stamping on).
I fussy cut Gretchen without a margin.
I put black foam tape on the back of Gretchen to pop her up. I had to cut lots of thin pieces for the various detail areas.
I pairedGretchen with the lovely Vintage Hollywood Graphic 45 paper adding a thin red mercury glass matting.
I added some flowers I got from a garage sale a local scrapbooking store hosted and embellished them with red rhinestones.
Inside, I added a strip from the Vintage Hollywood collection and a sentiment from the Dragon Queen. As a bonus to the September release, the Krafty Vault was opened and Dragon Queen was brought out as a re-release!
