Tim Holtz Edison Colorize

Have you seen the latest Halloween 2023 Release from Tim Holtz? It's absolutely terrifyingly fabulous! ;-) 
Thanks Heidi and Co at Simon Says Stamp for the GORGEOUS parcel of goodies!

I made this card using a new Edison Colorize, Layered Dots and Moonlight Thinlits Die Sets  and a Halloween Baseboard Idea-Ology Sentiment Strip from this latest release along with a Mischievous Cat ;-) 


I colored  Edison  by dipping Watercolor Paper into puddles of Spiced Marmalade, Fossilized Amber and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Inks, dryoing with a heat tool in-between dippings. I smothered the lighter piece with Star Dust Stickles to make it look more shiny/sparkly.  I used the same onks for the background panel, making it more ombre look, darker at the bottom and lighter at the top. For the front panel I blended Lost Shadow Ink over the watercolor paper and then splattered with Lost Shadow Ink. 
I used a White Gel Pen to add some cats eyes and then colored with a green Copic Marker. I added a few Bats  and the  Dreadfully Wicked Sentiment to finish.

I absolutely LOVE this. I need it. I want it. Right now I'm embossing the new PB Sweet Sip that you made me purchase because yours was so pretty.
