Ready to get my freak on!

Chic Freak Card

I created this card with a rubber stamp from Simply Betty Stamps called Steampunk Emo Rio. I stamped the image onto a piece of scrapbook paper and then lightly colored in parts of the image with chalks, colored pencils and markers. I added some glitter on the skeletons and her boots to make them shine.  She has a real feather on her jaunty top hat and fuschia tulle added to her skirt.

The card is embellished with silver punchinella ribbon (sequin waste) and black and fuschia eyelash yarn.

The challenge at Haunted Design House Macabre Monday is to create something that is "chic freak". In the 70's there was a song called "Le Freak" to use as in inspiration. I think this lady is dressed to get her freak on!

I am also entering this card into the anything goes challenge sponsored by Crafty Sentiments.

It's been a while since I created a card for a challenge. It felt good to be back in the craftroom! Please visit the above listed sites and check out the beautiful creations you will find there.
