Captured Witch Tag


Last month I visited my mom and sister who live on Lake Superior in the upper peninsula of Michigan. During my visit, I became very inspired to start creating things with a mischievous theme of Halloween. As a way of honoring the season I have been making more and more digital collages in a kind of spooky vintage style. In fact, I am hoping to visit my family one more time before the end of the year so my sister and I can really inspire eachother.

This "Captured Witch" image was created by using a photo of a canning jar, and then adding the amazing images sold by Becky Loyall. Thank you Becky for sharing your lovely art! I have been thinking this may be my Halloween card this year!

One of my favorite things to do lately is sit in front of my computer, and start creating artwork digitally! Who would have thought that I would even say this a year ago when I didn't have a clue where to even begin.
