The Masquerade Ball

Here we are starting OCTOBER! Oh where has this year gone?

I'm posting early today as I'll be traveling all day for a week's vacation at the beach!  Later today the rest of the Creative Team for Morgan's ArtWorld will share their cards and the October Challenge Blog will be open.  

For my Design Team card I've selected her Masquerade 2 Greyscale.

 I picked this image for the vintage look but also since October being the month of Halloween celebrations, she could be used for that occasion also.  

After sizing her to just under 4" tall, I printed her on 110# Neenah cardstock and used my Copic markers for coloring.  I love the elegance of Gina Marie Designs, Curly Flourish A2 Frame and cut it out of a metallic gold cardstock.  I secured the frame to the image, then trimmed the edge of the image to the size of the frame. 

Next I secured the deep red cardstock to the 6" card base and die cut the sentiment 'My Eyes Adore You' (inspired by the song) that I had also printed from the computer.  I then put the completed image securely on the card base slightly to the right side.  Before adding the sentiment,  I added foam to the back for added dimension, then secured it at the bottom left to complete the card design. 

You can visit Morgan's Art Studio to see all her creations or
