Goth Boy in Purple

Hi, How are you today. On this Saturday morning here in Nairobi it is a rather overdrawn kind of day weather wise, pleasant temperature, so on the whole pretty good. The night before last we had a massive surge to the power lines into the Hotel and quite a few rooms were without power for a while. Kenyan Power is somewhat volatile and apparently these things happen on a major scale every couple of years. The hotel has a massive generator so this kicked in and saved the day/evening for most!

My card today is similar to one I have made before:
Here it is:- I have called it "Goth Boy in Purple". Not very imaginative I know!

I used DCWV bright card stock stack as my base and a sheet of plain purple paper for the contrast. (From my stash).

The metal gears and brads that look like screws are a nice touch (I thought) to the look and feel of the card.

I used Copics to colour the digital image from Spesch Stamps printed on white "X-press it blending card" as follows:

Hair: C7, C5, C3 (also Marvy 1122 Le Plume II Black 

Bracelets: E13, E15, E17

Skin: E50, E51, E11

Shirt: V17, BV11, BV00

Trousers and the ground: C5, C3, C1

Boots: B97, B95, C7, C5 B(also Marvy 1122 Le Plume II Black 

Eyes: B0000

Background: B0000

I added a few drops of Stickles Crystal Glitter for a little interest in the background of the image.

The Top of the card in more detail.

I used a white Peel Off for the sentiment - they are so effective!

This is the inside of the card!

Goth Boy with a Blue vest

How is your Monday going? For me today seemed to go so fast, by the time I was able to sit down with a cuppa it was late in the afternoon. Never a dull moment that's for sure. I hope your day is going well.
My card today uses a Digi Stamp from Spesch stamps called Goth boy with a ring it is quite a quick card to put together.

Here it is:

I have made a couple of cards using this character, this is the first. I'll post my others at a later time.

I used a sheet of Design Paper from My Minds Eye - Miss Caroline - Howdy Doody.

The Blue tag is from  a sheet of Design Paper from the Kaiser Craft 6" x 6" paper pad called "Tea at Elsie's Collection".

On top of the tag I used some gold mirri card which I cut and embossed with Spellbinders Label Twenty Three S4-347.
The sentiment was stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa Ink pad using JustRite Stamp set - "Spring Words" - CR-03640.

I hand wrote the word "Wicked" onto the MME Design Paper.

I printed the image onto smooth white card and coloured it with my Copics:

Hair & Bracelet: E13, E15, E17

Skin: E50, E51, E11

Shirt: B34, B95, B000

Trousers: C5, C3, C1
