This week the DT got to work with TRICK OR TREAT and this image was super fun to work with.  I colored some of my image with Copics, then did masking using vellum and did the sky using my Copic air brush system.  I think it turned out pretty cool.  Here's some samples from my process of creating the image.

Then, I finished coloring the image after the airbrushing and added the moom and some outlines, etc.  Papers are DP - Echo Park and SU CS (think it's pumpkin pie).  Quickutz dies used for scalloped piece and long rectangle.  Image cut with nesties and corner piece done with EK Success punch.  Blinging bats are from Michaels, ribbon from Michaels, sentiment from Hero Arts clear set, stamped with Staz-On jet black, cut with SU punch, daubed with SU peach parfait.  I also went over girl's hat, boy's cape and bats' bellies with JudiKins glaze for some extra shine and dimension.  Hope you like it, let me know what you think:)
