Spooky Tales

Good morning!  
It's the first Sunday in October!
It's hard to believe we are in the last quarter of 2014.  
Time is flying!

And today it is time for 
Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #281

We have no sponsor this week but there will still be a small prize for our randomly selected winner!

Here is our inspirational photo for the week:

This week is a theme:  
Story Time

We want to see your projects related to a story, a book character, anything related to a book or story time.

Check out all of the Design Team's projects, at the CIC blog, for more inspiration and leave them some blog luv.  Then, link up your project and play along!  We love seeing your projects!
Here is mine:
SPIES:
STAMPS: Magical Tidbit Digital Image (Bugaboo Stamps); Sentiment (Lil Inker Designs).
PAPER: White card base.  Orange vellum; DP - Eerie Tale (Graphic 45).
INK: Watercolor pencils; Tuxedo Black (Memento).
EXTRAS: Spooky sentiment die (Lil Inker Designs); Alphabet die (Impression Obsession); Label Die (Taylored Expressions); Large banner die (Lil Inker Designs); Spider die (Die-Versions); Notebook paper die (Lil Inker Designs); orange enamel dots; Crystal Stickles.

I used the "Magical Tidbit" digi from Bugaboo on my card.  I used watercolor pencils to color it.  I haven't used my pencils in a while and decided I needed to start using some other supplies in my craft room more often.  After coloring, I applied crystal Stickles to the pages of the opened book, crystal ball and buckle on the hat.

For Following Challenges:
