Unity FWF with Esmerelda

I have nick-named her Ezzie.  She is adorable with so much personality.  I started with a heavy cream colored card stock, and sponged on assorted Distress Inks for the background.  Then stamped a variety of other Unity stamps (see list below).  I masked Ezzie with Eclipse paper and stamped the ghosts in white ink and got the translucent appearance I was hoping for.  Also stamped the accompanying Boo (just the boo in a sentiment stamp)...Please ignore the up-side-down boo.  It was late and I start making mistakes around midnight.  The panel was then edged in Distress Black Soot and layered on a pumpkin colored panel which I adhered to a lavender card base.  Ezzie herself was colored with Distress Markers in the same colors as the background behind her.

Thanks for looking and your comments.



Unity stamps used:
Esmerelda Girl
Totally Happy (crow on fence)
Stitched Daffodils (for the ground)
Retro Mod Clocks (don't ask me why I threw that in:)
3 Boo's (ghosts and "boo")

      Michele, thanks and that was what I was thinking. I wish I had a stamp that said witching hour.
