We’d like to welcome you to Some Odd Girl‘s 2nd annual Trick or Treat Halloween Hop!
Thank you so much for joining us! All of the Odd Girls have concocted a creepy little creation to inspire you today, and you’re invited to visit each blog to see what’s been brewing! You might have arrived from KATIE’s blog – if so, you’re on the right track! If not, you’ll want to CLICK HERE to get things started, because you won’t want to miss a thing!
We’ll be sharing some of these pretties are the Some Odd Girl blog over the next few days, but TODAY, we kick things off! So you might be wondering what this Trick or Treat stuff is all about, yeah? Well, in addition to amazing papercrafty goodness you’ll see at each stop, you’ll get tricks along the way, too! Simple tips and tricks to little secrets we papercrafters have figured out that we want to share with you! That covers the Tricks.
And then there are TREATS!
But first, let me share my little "trick"... I experimented with my Copics and coloring. So at first I colored my Zombie Mae image in black and white like I did in THIS VIDEO but I didn't stop there - I added a bit of color with a light/medium colored marker to make random parts of the image pop! What do you think? Very cool, right? I'm super pleased with the way it turned out.
Anyway, you hop, you’ll come across some Treats, located at random Odd Girls‘ blogs. We have some clear stamps, some Odds & Ends, some digi stamps and lots and lots of inspiration for you! AND, as if that wasn’t exciting already, we have a discount code for you!
Be sure to leave a comment at each stop, and if YOU have any tricks you’d like to share, we’d love to hear them! There might just be a prize in it for one commenter who leaves us a trick! Okay. So have you got all that? Are you ready? Well allllll righty! LET’S HOP! Here’s your hop order:
JoAnn <--- you are HERE!
And there you have it! We will hop now through October 31st at midnight Eastern, and our winners will be announced back here on the Some Odd Girl blog on Monday, November 3rd. Happy Haunting – I mean HOPPING! Your next stop is LINDA!!
And a very Happy Halloween from all of us at Some Odd Girl!

Ake! It's a zombie!!! Lol. She looks great and I like the grey scale with the splash of color, it certainly draws you attention more!

The coloring is great! Also, it is a small detail...but, the torn black tape appearing to hold the image on is a great addition.
Posted by: Kim | 10/29/2014 at 11:41 AM
Wow! Love the zombie, and your coloring. Awesome

This is quite lovely! Normally zombie cards are a bit grotesque, but I love that this is kind of beautiful

That pop of color is fabulous. I love to mix colors to create my own (easier to do with water-based mediums - haven't tried it with alcohol inks yet). Then I get my own custom color for that unique pop!

Love your black and white card. Your image really pops with that little bit of color.
Posted by: Greg T | 10/30/2014 at 10:17 AM
Too funny. Love your monochromatic scheme and your coloring.

What a goulish girl! I love your little pops of color!
Posted by: Jeannean M | 10/30/2014 at 06:47 PM
What a great idea to make the image into a zombie.
Posted by: Kim A | 10/30/2014 at 08:27 PM
O M G! ZM looks amazing. Those color pops really make the whole image pop.
