Itsy Bitsy Spider to Shannon

This piece was originally intended to be an insert, but then I got the idea to turn it into an envelope instead. (And lucky for me, there was enough white space for the address!)

 

I added spiders with a Q-tip. 

No Halloween-ish stamp to match, so used this one b/c of the colors. (not bad!)

Here is a before pic where you can see the Weaver writing (gouache) and overlapping words of the song.

Back flap.

Close-ups of spiders:

*for the eyes, I added white ink first, then the black dots. This was all an accident, as at first (as you can see above), I just used black dots for the eyes. Didn't like the look of that, so I tried adding the white, THEN figured out it works best if I add the white first!

Overall, pretty darn happy with how it turned out -- Fun!  :)
